Teleste has announced a major agreement with VodafoneZiggo to deploy its 1.8 GHz broadband technology across the Netherlands. This collaboration will equip VodafoneZiggo’s network for DOCSIS 4.0 capabilities, significantly enhancing internet speeds and reliability.
The project involves the supply of 1.8 GHz intelligent amplifiers, multitaps, and telemetry solutions. The initial phase of deliveries is complete, marking the beginning of a multi-year partnership. A central Amsterdam area has already been upgraded, establishing this as Europe’s first large-scale 1.8 GHz network prepared for DOCSIS 4.0. This technology promises seamless streaming, gaming, and other digital experiences.
“This partnership marks an important next step in our renewed strategy, focused on improving the customer experience, delivering fast and reliable internet across the Netherlands, and making targeted investments in our network and core activities. We continue to develop to ensure our customers enjoy stable WiFi throughout their homes and simplified internet services,” said Thomas Helbo, Chief Technology Officer at VodafoneZiggo.
The advanced telemetry within Teleste’s intelligent amplifiers allows VodafoneZiggo to proactively identify and resolve network issues, minimizing service disruptions. This focus on high service quality and reliability is crucial in today's competitive broadband market.
“VodafoneZiggo’s investment in DOCSIS 4.0 technology, with its 10G promise, exemplifies how cable infrastructure will remain competitive for the next 10+ years. This agreement demonstrates our leadership in 1.8 GHz broadband technology and our commitment to meeting the evolving needs of the market,” said Ulf Andersson, Head of Teleste’s Broadband Networks business. “We look forward to working closely with VodafoneZiggo to upgrade their network infrastructure and deliver superior connectivity experiences to subscribers.”
This successful deployment positions Teleste to attract other European operators looking to implement next-generation DOCSIS 4.0 solutions.
