COLOGNE -- VOO, a leading Belgian cable operator and one of the fastest-growing cable operators in Europe, is deploying the Cisco® cBR-8 converged cable access platform (CCAP) to give its residential and business customers faster broadband services.

VOO provides digital television services to its customers, including HD and VoD, as well as Internet, fixed telephone, and mobile phone services.

The Cisco cBR-8 with DOCSIS 3.1 broadband will help VOO prepare to increase its cable network capacity to support the demand for more Internet video and the growth of connected devices. Dimension Data Belgium has been enlisted to stage, configure, install and maintain the Cisco cBR-8 for VOO.

DOCSIS 3.1 enables high-bandwidth Internet services to be delivered over existing cable TV infrastructure. It lays the groundwork for a new generation of cable services that meet consumer demands for more and faster broadband connections.
