SAN JOSE, Calif., July 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Harmonic (NASDAQ: HLIT) today announced that telecommunications service provider Claro Perú, of the América Móvil group, is extending Harmonic's industry-leading CableOS^® Broadband Platform for fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) to sustainably deliver next-gen broadband and 10G speeds.

"We're excited to introduce a new FTTH offering that fuels faster, more reliable broadband experiences for customers while significantly reducing our space, power and cooling costs as we expand our service areas," said Nelson Moscoso, deputy director of fixed services network at Claro Perú. "We have successfully trialed the FTTH offering utilizing Harmonic's CableOS Platform in our Lima Hub, and we're ready to go live by early next year."
