Smarter HFC Operations with LoRaWAN-Based Control and Telemetry
QuantumLink™ is a cloud-native, LoRaWAN-enabled management platform designed to streamline diagnostics, provisioning, firmware management, and telemetry across modern HFC networks. Whether deployed for a full plant or a phased upgrade, QuantumLink supports intelligent oversight, from core operations to field-level execution.
Built for DOCSIS 4.0 and Beyond
QuantumLink™ supports upstream splits up to 684MHz and downstream expansion to 1.8GHz, aligning with SCTE 279 standards. Its modular architecture delivers scalable performance for high-density device networks with minimal overhead.
QuantumLink Central
Cloud-Native Remote Management
QuantumLink Central delivers real-time visibility and full-scope control across your amplifier network. The platform supports secure firmware updates, automated AI-based alerts, telemetry ingestion, asset management, and analytics—scaling across thousands to millions of devices. Standards-compliant with SCTE 279, QuantumLink Central minimizes downtime while optimizing performance and OpEx.
QuantumLink Bridge
Node-Level Control and Data Intelligence
QuantumLink Bridge adds a new layer of visibility and control at the node. Installed via the RF port, it manages communication with downstream amplifiers, collects real-time telemetry, and enables remote execution of configuration changes—including firmware updates, ALSC tuning, RF alignment, and snapshot-based fault analysis. Bridge supports DOCSIS 3.1 amplifier communication, extending smart management capabilities to legacy deployments, while integrating with QuantumLink Central for network-wide coordination.
QuantumLink Local
Field Access for Amplifiers
Equips field teams with direct access to amplifier and node settings—whether wirelessly via Bluetooth or through a wired connection. Using a secure mobile app, technicians can validate and manage smart amplifier configurations, provision amplifiers, access diagnostics, and manage firmware updates, even in offline environments. Designed for field efficiency, QuantumLink Local supports fast setup and troubleshooting, especially during DOCSIS 4.0 upgrades and routine maintenance alike.
