The research study covers the present scenario and growth prospects of
the global
CMTS market for 2017-2021. The market is segmented based on application
(residential and commercial) and geography (the Americas, EMEA, and
APAC).
A CMTS is an equipment which is generally located at a headend or hub
site of a cable company. It is used to provide high-speed data services,
such as cable internet or VoIP, to cable subscribers. The functions of
CMTS are similar to the Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer
(DSLAM) in a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) system. By combining the
functionality of a CMTS and an edge quadrature amplitude modulation
(eQAM), which is a physical downstream component used to move video,
voice, and data from the headend-to homes, the Converged Cable Access
Platform (CCAP) enables voice, video, and data in a converged IP network.

challenges, trends, and more.
Growth of customers opting for cable network-based unified services
Modern networks come in the form of multiple access networks, which can
connect customers to a core network based on IP technology. These access
networks include fiber-optics or coaxial cable networks connected to
fixed locations or customers connected through Wi-Fi as well as to 3G/4G
networks connected to mobile users. This can make it impossible to
identify whether the next-generation network is a fixed or mobile
network and whether the broadband wireless access would be used for both
fixed and mobile services.
Jujhar Singh, a lead computing
devices research analyst at Technavio, says, "With the rapid
growth in mobile voice and data usage and the emergence of new
multifunction, multi-radio handheld devices, there is an emerging
interest in seamless mobility. To bridge these rapidly upcoming
technologies, fixed-line operators and cable companies need to carefully
weigh optimal combinations, which help extract better performance from
existing assets. Wireless mobility has seen faster growth over the
years, due to the increasing presence of mobile devices."
Operational efficiency with minimal cost and good scalability
As newer over-the-top (OTT) video services and consumer devices are
creating demand for cable networks, vendors are competing for new
customers and retaining loyal customers. By rolling out new services and
gigabit tiers, multiple system operators (MSOs) will have to expand
capacity significantly.
"Advanced Telecommunications Computing Architecture-based CCAP
solutions can support only 24 to 32 channels per service group and are
not designed for supporting DOCSIS 3.1 at scale. By using these
platforms, MSOs would be required to significantly increase capital
expenditures to challenge gigabit billboard rates and grow at a steady
pace," adds Jujhar.
Rising bandwidth demand from consumers
Network bandwidth demand has been rising as wireless customers adopt
smartphones and demand higher-quality network service. Currently,
consumers expect a higher quality of data from their wireless networks.
Carriers strive to offer better service delivery, support, and
integration with other services. Failure to do so will lead to a
significant loss in the user base of data services.
The integration of high-definition web services such as Netflix
increases the usage of network bandwidth. If a wireless network is not
able to handle large volume of data, then the infrastructure needs to be
upgraded to handle heavier network bandwidth demand or release services
within the limitations of the network bandwidth.
