IP Infusion Upends the Economics of Network Transformation With OcNOS Support for the Broadcom Qumran3 Family at SCTE TechExpo 2026
SANTA CLARA, Calif.--( BUSINESS WIRE)-- IP Infusion, a global leader in open networking solutions, today announced plans to extend its OcNOS® network operating system to support open platforms based on the Broadcom Qumran3 family. Adding to the more than 50 open hardware platforms already supported, the addition of the Broadcom Qumran3 family gives fiber, cable, and mobile operators a unified network operating environment across Access, Aggregation, Transport and Core Network domains, simplifying operations and reducing operational costs.
OcNOS support for Qumran3-based platforms is a major step forward in our mission to bring the power of open networking to the mainstream
Enterprise AI On Ramps, cloud connectivity, and Data Center Interconnect, combined with the ever-faster broadband access speeds supported by XGS-PON, 50G-PON, DOCSIS 4.0 and 5G put capacity pressure across all network domains, from Access to the Core.
Service Providers must add capacity without increasing complexity while also working within tight power and rack-space constraint limits. Unfortunately, traditional network upgrade approaches involve deployment of an overlay of specialized equipment with diverse management and automation frameworks, which are costly, create operational complexity, and add pressure on limited power and physical space budgets.
OcNOS running on the Qumran3 family addresses those needs in the most elegant and operationally efficient way, with a single Network Operating System deployable across all network domains and supporting not only a variety of hardware configurations from Open Networking Hardware vendors ( UfiSpace, Edgecore Networks, and others), but also allowing the Service Provider to use the optical components and management and automation frameworks of their choice uniformly across their networks.
Service Providers deploying OcNOS on the Qumran3-based hardware platforms are able to scale in three distinct ways:
The OcNOS network operating system is common across all network domains, offering a unified management and automation framework across all supported hardware platforms from multiple open networking vendors. This enables operators to select hardware according to port density, capacity, buffering, security, timing, and form-factor requirements without having to adopt different network operating systems for each network domain.
“OcNOS support for Qumran3-based platforms is a major step forward in our mission to bring the power of open networking to the mainstream,” said Miguel Alonso, Chief Product and Marketing Officer at IP Infusion. “OcNOS delivers simplicity and operational efficiency to Service Providers as they scale up their networks to meet customer demands: from high-density aggregation, 800G ports and line-rate security, to the routing-table scale that large-scale internet routing requires.”
IP Infusion will preview OcNOS on Qumran3-based open platforms at SCTE TechExpo 2026, Sept. 29-Oct. 1, at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, booth I157 - where fiber, cable, and mobile Service Providers converge to learn more about what is next in the Broadband Industry.
