Akita is a cable network that's been making waves in the industry with its cutting-edge technology. It's developed a next-generation cable network that offers faster speeds and more reliable connections.
The new network uses a combination of fiber-optic cables and advanced signal processing to deliver speeds of up to 10 Gbps. This is a significant improvement over traditional cable networks, which typically top out at around 1 Gbps.
Akita's next-generation network is designed to support the growing demand for high-speed internet and data transfer. With more people working from home and streaming video content, the need for fast and reliable internet has never been greater.
The network's advanced signal processing capabilities also enable it to handle more devices and users without sacrificing performance. This makes it ideal for large households, businesses, and institutions with multiple users.

Technical Details
Cable Networks Akita is built on a robust infrastructure that ensures seamless connectivity.
The network operates on a fiber-optic backbone, providing high-speed data transmission.
Akita's network infrastructure is designed to be highly scalable, allowing for easy expansion to meet growing demands.
This scalability is made possible by the use of modular architecture, which enables the addition of new components without disrupting existing services.
Akita's technical team is responsible for maintaining and upgrading the network, ensuring that it remains secure and reliable.
Furukawa Electric's 10G-EPON Service
Furukawa Electric's 10G-EPON service is a game-changer for cable networks, allowing them to upgrade their infrastructure without disrupting existing services.
Cable Networks AKITA is one of the first to adopt this technology, and they're planning to launch a new commercial service in July using Furukawa Electric's 10G-EPON system.
This system ensures connectivity with existing 1G terminals, so existing services can be continued without having to exchange terminals – even if OLTs are upgraded.
Furukawa Electric's 10G-EPON system allows for a high degree of flexibility, with the ability to connect up to 128 ONUs per port.

Here's a breakdown of the key benefits:
- Compatibility with existing 1G terminals
- Ability to connect up to 128 ONUs per port
- Compact system design, with up to 24 ports per EIA3U sub-rack
- Support for 10Gbps services for public facilities and companies
The most compact system in Japan, Furukawa Electric's 10G-EPON system can fit a 10G-EPON port with up to 24 ports in a single EIA3U sub-rack, supporting a maximum of 3,072 ONUs per EIA3U.

Proof-of-Concept Experiment Configuration
The proof-of-concept experiment was made possible by NESIC's cooperation in providing access to the DCBEE environment. This collaboration was instrumental in bringing the project to life.
AT TOKYO and Cable Networks Akita will leverage this proof-of-concept experiment for future service development. Their goal is to provide better services for their respective customers.
The experiment utilized ATBeX (AT TOKYO Business eXchange), a network service platform that provides interconnection between AT TOKYO's data centers and partnered data centers for multiple customer networks.
