Cable operators require quality and reliability to compete in today’s voice and data arena. The ARRIS C4 CMTS enables operators to offer world-class performance for advanced, carrier-grade voice, high-speed data, and IPTV services. Highly-reliable C4 solutions reduce CAPEX with a highly economical cost-per-port and low operational cost. The C4 CMTS reduces OPEX and improves ROI with a compact footprint, low power consumption, and minimal cooling requirements which allow the unit to be placed in existing headends and hubs without build out or additional infrastructure, extending headend life and maximizing capital investment. Designed with flexibility in mind, the C4 CMTS active components can be upgraded via software to stay current with changing service demands. The C4 CMTS provides operators tremendous flexibility of configuration and ease of operation while providing best-in-class reliability. Because the C4 CMTS offers full DOCSIS 3.0 upstream and downstream services including channel bonding, operators can configure and deliver high-speed and new convergent services efficiently, bringing increased revenue per customer and improved market responsiveness. The C4 CMTS positions operators to operate more profitably and compete more effectively by satisfying subscriber and corporate demand for new services, higher speeds, and superior service quality.

With the ARRIS C4c compact-chassis CMTS, operators cost-effectively deploy full-featured DOCSIS 3.0-based services into space-constrained head-ends and small -to -medium-size systems. The C4c CMTS is also an ideal choice for MSOs rolling out services incrementally, where the capacity and cost of a full-scale CMTS is not required. For rapid deployment, scalability, and flexible management of DOCSIS 3.0 functions, no competitor’s compact-chassis CMTS can match the C4c CMTS. C4c solutions scale robustly to 10,000 subscriber devices and efficiently support a wide variety of popular and emerging voice and data services. Operators can quickly and profitably respond to subscriber and corporate demand for DOCSIS 3.0 value-added services, IPTV, emerging convergent services, and higher data speeds services that command premium prices and satisfy top-tier customers. Based upon industry-leading ARRIS engineering, the C4c CMTS delivers high port densities, low power consumption, and a small footprint. C4c solutions reduce CAPEX and OPEX through extended head-end life, reduced power and cooling requirements, improved network performance, enhanced reliability, and expanded capacity. The C4c CMTS uses the same software and RF and routing blades of the industry-leading ARRIS C4 CMTS and offers the same superb manageability, capability, and customer-pleasing quality of service.
