Comtrend, a leading Broadband CPE manufacturer and solution provider to regional and rural Communications Service Providers (CSPs), today announced the availability of their first VDSL OpenSync™-certified gateway. The VR-3071 is the first certified product in a series of Comtrend devices that are planned for OpenSync integration.
Through Comtrend’s partnership with the personalized communications services pioneer Plume®, the VR-3071 can pre-ship with OpenSync which enables immediate access to Plume’s powerful cloud- and AI-driven SaaS Experience Platform featuring services for smart homes. Additionally, Service Providers with VR-3071 gateways that are already deployed can now easily add Plume services by simply upgrading the firmware.
Once connected to the Plume Cloud, OpenSync-enabled, Comtrend gateways can access such Services as HomePass™––a new bundle of smart home services for consumers featuring whole-home adaptive WiFi, advanced parental and access controls, cybersecurity and more. For service providers, Haystack™ provides a back-end data prediction and analytics suite that has a demonstrated track record of measured success across critical operational areas, including reduced truck rolls and churn, increased ARPU, and self-install savings to bring CSPs significant return-on-investment.
