Article from the ENET website , posted yesterday, and referring to PON
Certainly a company push
!For years, DOCSIS has been the workhorse technology for cable internet service providers (ISPs), delivering reliable broadband access to millions of customers. However, Passive Optical Network (PON) technology is experiencing a surge in popularity, particularly with the advent of XGS-PON, which offers superior throughput capabilities. This begs the question: what does this mean for the future of DOCSIS and the companies that rely on it?
The answer lies not in competition, but in convergence. Here’s how DOCSIS and PON can coexist and create a more robust and future-proof broadband landscape:
The Advantages of PON
PON technology offers several technical and economic advantages over DOCSIS. Notably, PON boasts significantly faster and symmetrical speeds, ideal for today’s bandwidth-intensive applications like video conferencing and cloud storage. Additionally, PON utilizes fiber optics, resulting in lower operational costs (OPEX) and the ability to seamlessly scale to meet future bandwidth demands."
The HYBRID approach is ON !

The future of broadband is bright thanks to Remote OLTs with programmable routing capabilities. These devices empower ISPs to deliver high-quality, flexible broadband that’s ready for future demands. As ISPs increasingly adopt new fiber-optic technologies and leverage existing infrastructure through incumbent overlay networks, programmable Remote OLTs will become the new standard.

The Future of Broadband: A Converged Approach with DOCSIS and PON
For years, DOCSIS has been the workhorse technology for cable internet service providers (ISPs), delivering reliable broadband access to millions of customers. However, Passive Optical Network (PON) technology is experiencing a surge in popularity, particularly with the advent of XGS-PON, which offers superior throughput capabilities. This begs the question: what does this mean for the future of DOCSIS and the companies that rely on it?
The answer lies not in competition, but in convergence. Here’s how DOCSIS and PON can coexist and create a more robust and future-proof broadband landscape:
The Advantages of PON
PON technology offers several technical and economic advantages over DOCSIS. Notably, PON boasts significantly faster and symmetrical speeds, ideal for today’s bandwidth-intensive applications like video conferencing and cloud storage. Additionally, PON utilizes fiber optics, resulting in lower operational costs (OPEX) and the ability to seamlessly scale to meet future bandwidth demands.
The Future of Cable: A Hybrid Approach
The rise of PON doesn’t necessitate to the forklift DOCSIS infrastructure. Instead, in brownfield deployments we’re likely to see a future where these two technologies work together in a hybrid DOCSIS over PON and Virtualized PON approach. Hybrid solutions leverage existing DOCSIS management systems for user provisioning and configuration, streamlining integration. However, data transmission occurs over the faster and more reliable PON infrastructure. This allows ISPs to offer the benefits of fiber optics while retaining their expertise in DOCSIS management. Additionally, virtualized PON solutions seamlessly integrate with existing DOCSIS networks, delivering a significant performance boost for businesses and heavy internet users, effectively eliminating potential bottlenecks within traditional DOCSIS networks.
The Power of Remote OLTs
Remote Optical Line Terminals (OLTs) are compact devices that can be deployed within existing networks. These powerhouses connect to the central DOCSIS orchestrator via a “PON Stack” and network configuration tools. This allows for seamless management of a hybrid DOCSIS/PON network as a single, unified infrastructure. With remote OLT technology, ISPs can enhance the efficiency of their existing infrastructure to the same level as DOCSIS 4.0 standards, without requiring them to lay more cables and active equipment throughout their networks.
The Bottom Line: A Collaborative Future
By embracing PON technologies, DOCSIS providers can leverage their existing infrastructure and expertise while evolving towards a future-proof network with a powerful technology by their side. This convergence translates to higher bandwidth, lower operational costs, and ultimately, superior internet experience for their customers. It’s a win-win for ISPs and consumers alike.

Don't hope too much .. every single option issued has been out of the money.
HOPE.
Yep, a mature, insightful response as expected.
Thought it was time as half stacking beans on bank holidays ?
Miserable C U U NTZ don't even take bank holiday off.
Really don't get the sponsorship of this event in amongst the absolute behemoths whose $ms spent of these events is just a few percent of their marketing budgets. They have the luxury to be able to do the thought leadership / general brand presence stuff without being near the breadline.
So why do it ?
Yes you get a speaking slot but this will be one of many and delegates pick and choose. Also, at this level, D L is the worst technical and sales communicator I have seen.
Product announcement / contract ? Firstly you only do this if you have a market ready product not one that required further nre. Tarana, no as they do this. something leftfield perhaps under very strict NDA?
The days of me thinking DL had a cunning master plan mapped out are long gone. But hope the pricing of the options was based on something close to signing outside tarana / uep2025.
Feel free to wait for the first contracts to drop but good luck buying in sub 2-3p
Any truth in the adage the market looks ahead and anticipates what is to become?
The price seems to be suggesting nothing on the horizon yet.
A complete red free week with a 3 blue days and two flat days.
Sells left before long weekend.

Offered 0.877 to sell 1 million.
0.878 to sell . They are daffy buys
I daffy 0.9188p to buy currently.
Think you're right Tricky. Those last 2 "buys" ( 100k) could well be sells.
Actually offering over 0.9p for 500k
Few more and off we go ,
And before the buy the bid for 2.5mill was 086p
Why, because mms currently have been offering me me 0.8725 for 2.5mill sell
and 2.1mill buy for 0.918 :p
