It is another step forward in executing our growth strategy and deepening the value we deliver to customers and investors alike.”Extending AI-Powered Entra IntelligenceEntra Intelligence is Vecima’s AI-powered operational awareness and control platform for broadband access networks, spanning service provisioning, configuration, streaming telemetry, fault analysis, correlation, and AI-recommended operator-approved remediation. Akleza’s CableDiag software platform continuously monitors broadband network health and helps identify problems before they become service-affecting. With CableDiag, operators can pinpoint the location and nature of a network fault remotely, often down to a specific street segment, and, where the fault allows, clear it remotely without a dispatch or send a technician with the insights needed to resolve it on the first visit.Together with Vecima’s Entra vCMTS and Remote PHY Devices (RPDs), CableDiag gives operators end-to-end visibility from the headend to the cable modem, with field-proven analytics integrated into the Entra Intelligence portfolio. In addition, the software is vendor-agnostic: it works with all leading CMTS and vCMTS platforms and can be deployed alongside existing operator infrastructure without requiring hardware changes or capital expenditure.“When Akleza was founded in 2016, our mission was simple: build the operational tools cable operators actually need to keep their networks running,” said James Medlock, Founder & CEO of Akleza. “Over the past decade, our customers have proven that proactive maintenance, smart RF analysis, and data-driven analytics can dramatically reduce truck rolls and improve the subscriber experience. Joining Vecima gives our software the platform, the engineering depth, and the global reach to deliver those outcomes to every operator that depends on cable broadband.”“AI in network operations is only as good as the underlying data,” said Ryan Nicometo, Chief Product Officer at Vecima. “CableDiag brings a decade of production network intelligence and correlation from millions of devices in live operator networks. That depth makes the AI capabilities we are building into Entra Intelligence even more insightful, and it gives operators one place to ask what is wrong and what to do about it.”Vecima will demonstrate Entra Intelligence, including the CableDiag analytics engine and Entra vPON Manager, at SCTE TechExpo 2026 in Atlanta, September 29–October 1, Booth B362.Akleza, Inc. is a global leader in Proactive Network Maintenance (PNM) solutions for cable operators.
