Insights
Harmonic's CUJO AI integration enhances their broadband platform with low-latency capabilities, strengthening competitive position without requiring hardware upgrades.
This strategic partnership between Harmonic and CUJO AI represents a significant enhancement to Harmonic's core product offering. By integrating CUJO AI's network intelligence software with their cOS virtualized broadband platform, Harmonic is addressing the growing market demand for optimized performance in latency-sensitive applications like gaming and video conferencing.
The technical implementation is particularly noteworthy. The solution combines Harmonic's Low Latency, Low Loss, Scalable throughput (L4S) capabilities with CUJO AI's intelligence running on BoostD 3.1 modems, enabling real-time detection and prioritization of latency-sensitive traffic. Most importantly, operators can deploy this enhancement through a simple software upgrade to existing infrastructure – eliminating the capital expenditure typically required for network performance improvements.
This software-upgrade approach creates a compelling value proposition for Harmonic's existing customer base. With the cOS platform already powering over
From a business perspective, the integration addresses key operator pain points: churn reduction, subscriber retention, ARPU improvement, and cost-effective subscriber acquisition. By enabling operators to offer differentiated services based on quality-of-experience rather than just raw speed, Harmonic is helping its customers create meaningful competitive advantages in their respective markets.
This partnership aligns with the telecommunications industry's broader shift toward software-defined networking capabilities and experience-based differentiation, positioning Harmonic favorably within current market trends.
Advanced Integration Enables Exceptional Broadband Experiences for Latency-Sensitive Interactive Applications
"This integration brings to life a shared vision of adaptive, real-time connectivity that meets the evolving demands of modern households. Together with Harmonic, we're making ultra-low-latency broadband a reality — not just for the few, but at scale," said Remko Vos, CEO at CUJO AI.
The powerful solution combines robust, field-proven Low Latency, Low Loss, Scalable throughput (L4S) capabilities enabled by Harmonic's cOS platform with CUJO AI's network intelligence software running on BoostD 3.1 modems. The solution enables real-time detection and end-to-end prioritization of latency-sensitive applications. The Harmonic cOS platform enabled with CUJO AI software provides a seamless, low-latency broadband experience for subscribers while empowering operators to reduce churn, boost retention, improve ARPU and economically attract new subscribers through a uniquely differentiated offering.
Harmonic's cOS core software enables operators to activate the new L4S capabilities across existing DOCSIS and fiber networks via a simple software upgrade, eliminating the need for major infrastructure investments. Moreover, the integration between Harmonic's cOS platform and CUJO AI harnesses the benefits of L4S-ready networks for latency-sensitive applications that may not be L4S compatible.
"Our integration of CUJO AI on the cOS platform is a firm step forward on the path to adaptive, self-optimizing broadband networks that elevate the subscriber experience beyond reliability and speed," said Asaf Matatyaou, senior vice president, product, Broadband Business at Harmonic. "By harnessing the power of L4S technology and CUJO AI's network intelligence software, we are simplifying network performance enhancement for operators so they can cost-effectively elevate the subscriber experience — with a simple software upgrade."
Harmonic will demonstrate the integration of CUJO AI network intelligence software on the cOS platform at ANGA COM, June 3-5 in
