GAIN SERVICE VELOCITY WITH
FLEXIBLE MAC ARCHITECTURE

Benefit from greater agility, scalability and interoperability to improve your total cost of ownership as you advance on the path to 10G broadband.

Ease your network evolution with greater optionality to support multiple access architectures. The Flexible MAC Architecture (FMA) unlocks the power of true virtualization with Harmonic's market-leading CableOS® platform and our groundbreaking MAC Anywhere capability.

You can combine and orchestrate Remote-PHY (R-PHY) and Remote MAC-PHY (R-MAC-PHY) using a single, containerized and flexible DOCSIS MAC solution based on your distributed access architecture (DAA).

ROLLOUT NEW SERVICES
WITH THE SPEED OF SOFTWARE

CableOS in an FMA gives you the option to deploy the MAC in the node, hub site, headend, or data center. You increase service velocity as CableOS dynamically orchestrates MAC anywhere across the network to deliver a superior quality of service to your subscribers.

SUSTAINABLY EXPAND
CONNECTIVITY & CAPACITY

With third-party interoperability CableOS supports both R-PHY & R-MAC-PHY providing a common framework, regardless of the DOCSIS revision. Fully benefit from true virtualization to extend beyond DAA and add PON and mobile services to existing DOCSIS services.
