Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about HFC network engineering and upgrades.

HFC (Hybrid Fiber-Coax) network engineering involves the design, optimization, and upgrade of cable networks that combine fiber optic cables and coaxial infrastructure. Our services include fiber deep architecture planning, and full network modernization to support higher bandwidth demands.
HFC upgrades, particularly node segmentation and fiber deep deployments, reduce the number of homes served per node, dramatically improving bandwidth per subscriber, reducing latency, and enabling symmetrical gigabit speeds.
Node segmentation involves splitting existing service areas into smaller nodes, reducing the number of subscribers sharing bandwidth. This increases available bandwidth per home, improves network reliability, reduces maintenance costs, and prepares the network for future capacity demands.
Absolutely. We provide strategic planning and phased migration strategies from HFC to FTTP, helping operators maximize ROI on existing infrastructure while transitioning to all-fiber networks. We design hybrid approaches that leverage current assets while building toward full fiber futures.
