BroadStar, the fastest Internet provider in Florida with Internet speeds starting at a minimum of 2 Gbps up-and-down, is upgrading its network with IP Infusion’s award-winning IP Infusion bundles. This integrates pre-loaded OcNOS®, the industry’s leading robust and scalable network operating system, with open networking hardware platforms. IP Infusion’s OcNOS facilitates hardware independence due to its superior interoperability with other vendors, enabling BroadStar to choose the auxiliary hardware that best aligns with budget and feature requirements, facilitating a shorter time-to-market and a faster roll-out of services.

Eliminating the traditional integration pain points for network operators, IP Infusion supports BroadStar’s initiative to launch a feature-rich mix of modern broadband services to the extensive Multiple Dwelling Units (MDUs) it serves across the United States. Benefits include increasing BroadStar’s choices for disaggregated options for Broadband residential and commercial services.

“IP Infusion’s tight integration capabilities on best-of-breed hardware is the ideal design for performance-critical deployments, providing the full feature set and reliability we want to offer our residential customers as we roll out symmetric broadband services over fiber,” said Tyler Bell, CEO of BroadStar. “Aggregating all of our customer traffic back to our core network using IP Infusion’s platform provides a clear ROI in just a few months rather than the years it would take if we used other solutions.”

“We are pleased that BroadStar chose IP Infusion’s disaggregated OcNOS solution, which effectively supports their goal of delivering quality fiber optic broadband service to their MDU residents without incurring exorbitant expenses,” said Atsushi Ogata, President and CEO of IP Infusion. “IP Infusion offers BroadStar a variety of competitive advantages, including dramatically reduced operational complexity and lower installation and upkeep costs, making facility-wide systems upgrades faster and easier.”
