January 23, 2004 12:28:00 PM ET
DULUTH, Ga., Jan. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ARRIS ARRS today announced that its Cadant(R) C4 cable modem termination system (CMTS) has now over one million live subscriber lines passing through its hardware and software.
The Cadant C4 was launched in January 2002 and, by June of that year, had reached the 10,000 live subscriber milestone. By March 2003, the number had grown to 100,000 live subscriber lines, and today, just over nine months later, the one million live subscriber figure has been eclipsed - proof of the burgeoning CMTS marketplace and the C4's stature within that market segment.
Just under 400 C4s have been sold throughout the world and are currently deployed in The United States, Canada, Japan, Chile, Argentina, Poland, France, Austria, The Netherlands, Korea and Honduras.
