Last week cable showed its breadth and strength at SCTE’s Cable-Tec Expo ’11, in a fitting venue at the Georgia World Congress Center, across the street from CNN headquarters, a pioneer of stimulating informational content over cable. The Cable-Tec show floor was full of vendors promoting their products ranging from cable tools, connectors, radio frequency measuring equipment, TV remote controls, video compression technology, to IP infrastructure solutions.Â
Kicking off the week was the Capacity Management Symposium, during which speakers from Sandvine, Cisco, ARRIS, SeaChange, and Motorola presented their perspectives on how data’s Compound Annual Growth Rate growth rate of 50% is impacting the capacity planning of cable networks. During my session, I introduced findings from our recently released Global Internet Phenomena Report which contrasted the usage patterns and regulations in North American and Asian augmentation markets with those of emerging markets, such as Africa. Tools for measurement of Quality of Experience (QoE) are all the more vital in these times of explosive broadband video growth.
