Low Latency DOCSIS®
Delivering the best round-trip latency for delay sensitive apps
Network latency can frustrate users of delay sensitive applications, causing gaming lag, video buffering, and AR/VR experiences that are far from realistic. In addition, jitter, the variation in latency, adds to the problem by creating unpredictable response times for users.
Low Latency DOCSIS (LLD) creates a fast lane through the HFC network to significantly reduce latency and jitter, while providing network operators with a new revenue stream for high value, low latency services.
Aurora Networks is ready with an end-to-end LLD solution that provides users with low latency performance from the home to the internet, and back.
Low-latency DOCSIS
Low latency, end-to-end
Aurora Network's LLD solution is able to identify delay sensitive traffic, separating it and getting it onto the fast lane. This provides network operators with a powerful platform they can use to give subscribers the speed and responsiveness they need.
Lower latency, happier gamers
In gaming, you make a move and expect an immediate response—but latency can create lag and frustrate gamers. Aurora Networks' LLD solution addresses this by reducing round trip delay from hundreds of milliseconds to less than 15 ms. In addition, LLD reduces jitter for more predictable response times and a key competitive edge.
Why Aurora Networks?
Industry’s first LLD solution
Aurora Networks fills the gap between need and solution with the industry’s first end-to-end LLD system. The system extends the CableLabs LLD specification with an innovative means of identifying and getting low latency traffic onto the LLD fast lane—opening a whole new class of services.
