NTPA News Netopia President and CEO to Lead Panel on Triple-Play Service Management at Broadband World Forum Europe
PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Netopia, Inc. (Nasdaq:NTPA), a market leader in broadband service
assurance solutions, announced its president and CEO, Alan Lefkof, will
lead a discussion on centralized broadband management at Broadband World
Forum Europe. The panel, entitled “Deploying
Next-Generation Services without Next-Generation Costs through
Centralized Broadband Management,” will take
place from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, October 12.
Belgacom Manager of Connected Home Integration Koen van Hove, Motorola
Vice President of Business Development Keith Kelley, DSL Forum Director
Greg Bathrick, and ASSIA Engineer in Technology Strategy Mike Brady will
join Lefkof to share how carriers can mass deploy advanced broadband
services without increasing operational costs. As carriers move beyond
their traditional service offerings and look into next-generation
broadband, they must decide how to effectively manage these new services
without draining valuable resources. The panel will discuss how remote
management can help carriers automate service installation and support —
allowing them to expand their offerings while maintaining high levels of
customer satisfaction.
Netopia staff will also be available during the show in booth No. 518 to
showcase Netopia’s triple-play service
assurance solutions, including its MiAVo VDSL2 and bonded ADSL2+
gateways, its VoIP products and its Netopia Broadband Server (NBBS)
remote management platform.
