Multiple lower-density MDUs. Massive savings.

With a single SeaStar optical node you make multi-gigabit broadband service delivery to multiple lower-density MDUs a revenue expansion opportunity.

Tap into your existing in-building coax wiring to deliver fiber speeds.

Cost-effectively grow reach

Massively reduce your cost per subscriber with SeaStar.

SeaStar makes it easy to deliver service to up to 16 lower-density MDUs within a 5 km radius.

Ensure high QoE and minimal disruption

Tap into the existing in-building coax wiring to enhance service quality and boost speeds with minimal disruption during deployment.

The compact, low power, and hardened SeaStar can be deployed indoors or outdoors on strands, poles, walls, or pedestals.

Streamline operations with common management

SeaStar is simple to operate and is integrated with Harmonic’s cOS™ broadband platform to enable common management for SeaStar, PON, and DOCSIS in a single view.

Oyster DAA Node

More options for every access network

You can install the Oyster Low-Power DAA Node in a street cabinet, a wall or strand mounting thanks to its compact design. Use the Oyster node for R-PHY with remote PHY devices in extended-spectrum DOCSIS (ESD), also called Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD), and full duplex DOCSIS versions.

The Oyster node is fully interoperable so you can choose the most relevant deployment options for your network and business.

Drive revenue from MDUs with SeaStar

SeaStar optical node simplifies MDU broadband service delivery for both fiber and coax networks, and offers cost-effective solutions using the existing in-building infrastructure.

Best for lower-density

Deliver multi-gigabit service to up to 16 lower-density MDUs served per SeaStar, reaching a 5km radius and massively reducing the cost per subscriber.

Common management

SeaStar is simple to operate and is integrated with the cOS™ broadband platform to enable common management for SeaStar, PON, and DOCSIS in a single view.

Deploys anywhere

Compact, low power, and hardened to be deployed indoors or outdoors on strands, poles, walls, or pedestals.

No rewiring

Tap into existing in-building coax wiring to simplify and accelerate deployments and keep costs low.

Fiber-forward

Supports PON coexistence, enabling a graceful PON evolution. Optionally, add 10G PON with Harmonic’s Fin 10G SFP+ Based OLT.

Telemetry & analytics

SeaStar is integrated with the cOS™ broadband platform and enables streaming telemetry powerful web-based applications.
