Comtrend Unveils Groundbreaking G.hn DPU Solution

In a significant move aimed at enhancing broadband infrastructure, Comtrend, a leading name in broadband networking solutions, showcased its latest G.hn-based DPU (Digital Processing Unit) at the upcoming Broadband Communities Summit, scheduled for June 23–24, 2025, in Houston, Texas. This innovative solution promises to redefine how service providers deliver gigabit broadband to multi-dwelling units (MDUs) by leveraging existing coaxial infrastructure, thereby reducing installation costs and time dramatically.

Addressing the MDU Challenges

Multi-dwelling units, particularly those with aging or outdated wiring, have often been sidelined in the push to upgrade broadband infrastructure due to the high costs and complexities associated with service upgrades. Comtrend's G.hn DPU solution addresses this issue head-on, allowing service providers and system integrators to breathe new life into these properties without the need for extensive rewiring or disruptive construction work.

One of the standout features of the G.hn DPU solution is its ability to deliver gigabit speeds over existing coax cables. The process eliminates the need for trenching, allowing for straightforward installations that can be turned around in mere days instead of weeks. This swift deployment enables broadband service providers to quickly service previously overlooked properties, enhancing their service offerings while improving profitability.

Real-World Deployments

Outgrowing DSL? There's no need for outdated technology to hold back progress. Comtrend’s DPU allows businesses to bring fiber connections to a building and utilize existing coax to deliver high-speed broadband where it’s needed most.

Ensuring Quality Service: For providers struggling with underperforming head-end solutions, this new DPU offers a cost-effective upgrade path that is easy to deploy while inherently built for optimal performance.

Through this innovative solution, Comtrend is enabling service providers to transform previously hard-to-serve MDUs into high-margin opportunities. The ability to reach these properties previously deemed too costly to upgrade represents a vast new market for broadband service expansion.

Purpose-Built for Service Providers

Designed specifically for service providers, value-added resellers (VARs), and system integrators, the G.hn DPU solution allows partners to experience a rapid return on investment.

Key Benefits Include:

• - Faster time-to-market: Incredibly quick installations mean services can go live much sooner.
• - No rewiring necessary: The preservation of existing coax infrastructure drastically lowers costs.
• - Minimal technical overhead: Simplified installations reduce the need for extensive technical training or support.
• - Immediate revenue generation: Enables service from properties that were once considered unviable from a cost perspective.

Comtrend's commitment to innovation, alongside its thorough understanding of service provider needs, sets it apart in the broadband networking landscape.

Interactive Demo Opportunities

Attendees of the Broadband Communities Summit are encouraged to visit Comtrend at Booth 605, where they can witness firsthand the capabilities of the G.hn DPU solution. This demonstration will underscore how this new offering can simplify MDU broadband installations, boosting profitability for both providers and partners.

Bradley H. Joe, Senior Director of Product Strategy at Comtrend North America, emphasizes the potential impact: “MDUs represent one of the broadband industry's greatest untapped opportunities. Our solution provides an affordable, scalable route to enhance service offerings without the need for extensive rewiring.”

The G.hn DPU solution is now available for evaluation and deployment. Interested parties can request a demo or schedule a meeting by contacting Comtrend directly.
