Recent Acquisition Activity Highlights Importance of Strong Network System Management for Satellite and Cable MSOs
IRVINE,CA (PRWEB) June 17, 2015 -- gen-E, a worldwide leader in Network System Management for Service Providers, commented today on the impact of the many recent announcements of mergers in the cable and satellite industries. With New York Times (6/4/15) and Forbes headlines (6/9/15) featuring industry news like Dish Network’s deal with T-Mobile, the merger of Atlantic Broadband and Metrocast, of Suddenlink by Altice, Charter’s merger with Time Warner, among other high-profile deals, the communications industry is expected to undergo tremendous change. gen-E believes careful management of system consolidation will be critical to the growth trajectory for these businesses in the Service Provider industry, especially in a merger environment.
“Properly managed network systems will be critical to the success of recent merger announcements,” said Christian Mark, President and CEO of gen-E. “Employing smart analytics and maximized optimization techniques with enterprise software solutions like gen-E’s Ops Center® will be equally important in managing explosive growth for any cable or satellite provider.”

“All these mergers are designed to leverage the value of individual players into new companies that can accelerate the deployment of faster Internet speeds, implement deployment of new competitive facilities-based WiFi networks and expand facilities footprints of optical networks,” added Mack. “I believe that all these goals are achievable with best-of-breed software support like gen-E’s Ops Center offering.”
gen-E helps clients seamlessly assimilate acquisitions, as well as roll out network upgrades and services in a controlled, systematic, and efficient manner. Scaling business for Service Providers without scaling infrastructure is a key element of gen-E’s business philosophy and matches what cable operators and satellite companies seek to achieve with new acquisitions and mergers.
