The Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers (SCTE) said service and network reliability and quality will top the agenda for workshops tied to this year’s Cable-Tec Expo, set for October 13-16 in New Orleans.
The expo’s 35 workshops, headed up by the show program committee chaired by Liberty Global executive VP and CTO Balan Nair, will span five tracks: Business-to-Business Solutions and Energy 2020; Next-Generation Services; Wireless and Home Networks; Wireline: RF; and Wireline: Fiber and Core.
Some anticipated topics for those workshops include network virtualization; cloud-based set-top functionality; migration to all-IP video distribution; over-the-top (OTT) video; opportunities around the Internet of Things (IoT); and how the industry can optimize LTE, public Wi-Fi and wireless home networks.
