CommScope delivers first FDX amplifier
prototype to Comcast as next step in planned roll out of FDX across
Comcast network in 2023
Comcast today announced that partner CommScope has delivered the
first prototype Full Duplex DOCSIS (FDX) amplifiers to its advanced
technology labs for system testing. Comcast first tested FDX
amplifiers in September 2022, demonstrating the ability to deliver
symmetrical speeds across a complete network-to-home 10G loop,
reflective of architecture that is inclusive of the vast majority
of the Comcast network.

“In 2022, we demonstrated that our Xfinity 10G Network is here
for our customers—a brilliant network that delivers the next
generation of connectivity to power the next generation of
innovation,” said Elad Nafshi, EVP & Chief Network Officer at
Comcast Cable. “CommScope has been a key partner in our work and
deploying their FDX amplifiers across our network is a critical
next step. We’re excited to harden this technology and begin
rolling them out across our network, so that we can continue to
deliver the best connectivity experience to our customers.”
The prototype amplifiers will be used to understand and
implement improvements ahead of the full deployment across
Comcast’s network, which is expected to begin later in 2023. The
amplifiers are based on the widely deployed CommScope STARLINE®
MiniBridger™ platform which Comcast currently uses as a part of its
network architecture.
“The CommScope engineering team has been relentlessly working on
this program and is making great strides,” said Guy Sucharczuk, SVP
& President of Access Network Solutions (ANS), CommScope. “RF
Amplifiers are one of the key growth products within our ANS
portfolio, as evidenced by our recent one million units shipped
announcement. These million amplifiers shipped, in addition to the
prior existing millions of CommScope amplifiers in the market,
become candidates for upgrade to DOCSIS 4.0. We are excited to
partner with Comcast to engineer this next generation of smart
amplifiers.”
Over the past 24 months, Comcast has been a leader in developing
and implementing 10G technology, including several world firsts.
Recently, the company marked a major milestone in the nation’s
largest and fastest multi-gig deployment, announcing that its
latest Xfinity 10G Network upgrade will be launched to 10 million
homes and businesses by the end of February. These locations now
will have the foundational network enhancements in place to begin
deploying DOCSIS 4.0, setting the stage for the introduction of new
multi-gigabit symmetrical Internet options before the end of 2023
that will be delivered across Comcast’s existing networks with less
cost. The full deployment of these technical capabilities will
reach more than 50 million homes and businesses by 2025. In
addition to fast speeds, DOCSIS 4.0 technologies will deliver even
greater reliability and capacity to power multiple data-intensive
applications.
