our network upgrade. We trust that the
combination of high performance and
user-friendly features of its E8 node helps

Supporting DOCSIS 3.1 frequencies,
Teleste’s E8 is a compact optical node
platform offering advanced technical
features, outstanding performance and
innovative, yet practical functionalities.
The node features, for example, a
universal control that ensures its optimal
performance by automatically aligning
gains and levels of amplifier stages.
“We are pleased to support Vectra in the
development of its cable infrastructure.
In the highly competitive cable market,
excellent product quality is certainly one
of the major prerequisites for meeting
consumers’ demand for more and more
Internet speed and increased service
reliability,” said Rami Kimari, Vice President

Besides optimal performance, the E8 node
helps operators cut down operational costs
over time by automatically ensuring correct
alignment and reducing consumption of
power through the innovative power save
technology. Another practical feature in the
E8 is the lid that can be opened from either
side or removed altogether, thus making
the node user-friendly and easy to install in
various spaces. n
