Vecima's Entra R-PHY Monitor Wins 4 Diamonds in BTR 2018 Diamond Technology Reviews

Entra Remote PHY Monitor takes a top award in the Monitoring & Analysis Category

VICTORIA, Oct. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ - Vecima Networks Inc. (TSX:VCM), an experienced designer and manufacturer of innovative technology solutions, is proud to announce that its Entra Remote PHY Monitor has been honored with a four diamond rating in the BTR (Broadband Technology Report) 2018 Diamond Technology Reviews. The award was announced at the cable telecommunications industry's biggest event, SCTE's Cable-Tec Expo in Atlanta, Georgia.

"One of the biggest missing pieces of the DAA use cases is how to monitor and manage the physical equipment," stated one of the judges. "The Entra Remote PHY Monitor fills this gap and should be of great interest to anyone moving into the RPHY deployment world."

"We're delighted that Vecima's deep commitment to developing powerful solutions for the distributed access ecosystem continues to be recognized by our industry peers," said Sumit Kumar, President and CEO of Vecima Networks.

Vecima's Entra Remote PHY Monitor collects, stores, and presents RPD configuration and operational data in a simplified, clear, and consistent way providing MSOs with actionable insight into their RPD deployments. Consolidating RPD monitoring capabilities into a vendor-agnostic system empowers our customers to have smooth DAA rollouts, reduce operational expenses, and ensure their HFC network is operating at peak capacity.

The Entra Remote PHY Monitor continues Vecima's strategy for DAA interoperability by providing a vendor-agnostic monitoring solution for Remote PHY devices. By acting as an auxiliary CCAP core, the Entra Remote PHY Monitor provides a complete view of Remote PHY devices across multiple hubs.

Vecima will be at Booth 623 at SCTE's Cable-Tec Expo 2018 in Atlanta, Georgia. To learn more about Vecima's award-winning products, please visit www.vecima.com.
