TORONTO — Adara Technologies today announced Docomo Pacific, a division of Japanese mobile operator NTT Docomo and the largest telecom provider in Guam and its surrounding areas, is the latest cable operator to deploy its Bandwidth Reclamation Solution suite.
Adara’s solution frees up significant amounts of operator bandwidth so it can be immediately used for multi-gigabit broadband expansion using DOCSIS 3.0, 3.1 or 4.0 (full duplex), says the news release.
In addition, the solution leverages “codec-awareness” — a feature that distinguishes, for example, between MPEG2- and MPEG4-capable set-top boxes — which enables the bandwidth efficiencies of MPEG4 without the need for a costly, customer-disruptive and time-consuming forklift replacement of remaining MPEG2 set-tops, says the release.
“Our solution will be utilized by Docomo to free up bandwidth for several key business initiatives,” said Joseph Nucara, CEO and co-founder of Adara, in the news release.
Docomo Pacific is the largest provider of fixed, wireless, Internet and cable services in Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. Responding to increased demand due to the Covid-19 crisis, Docomo Pacific expects to free up bandwidth for new high-speed Internet and IPTV services, says the release.
