The Cable Show 2014

IRVINE, Calif.--()--SMC Networks, a leading global provider of customer premises equipment (CPE) for the complete digital home, today announced that its Veloxite 16x4 eMTA (D3CM1604V) has successfully powered a keystone launch of Mediacom Communications’ “Ultra 305” high-speed Internet service in Cedar Rapids, Iowa on April 14, 2014.

The D3CM1604V is one of seven of SMC’s CPE products that recently received the distinguishing honor of being CableLabs® certified.

“The D3CM1604V was set-up in demo areas and reached impressive speeds north of 500 Mbps during the event,” said SVP Technology JR Walden. “SMC’s technology allows us to offer consumers our fastest-ever broadband speed, providing a near tripling of speed from our current Ultra 105 Mbps offering.”

“We are delighted that Mediacom trusted SMC as a technology provider for such a critical event. The impressive speeds are the result of Mediacom’s network capabilities, coupled with a leading performing DOCSIS 3.0 CPE device,” said SMC Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Joe Wytanis.
