WOW! Custom Packaging WOW! Goes All Digital with Evolution Digital uDTAsBy Evolution Staff | Tue, 22 Feb 2011 Centennial, Colo. (February 22, 2010) - Evolution Digital, LLC, a leading supplier of digital solutions for bandwidth reclamation, has been selected to provide WOW! Internet, Cable and Phone with universal DTAs (uDTA) for deployment starting in February 2011. WOW!, a competitive provider of bundled services, is transitioning to an all digital environment in order to reclaim bandwidth for the launch of more HD channels and other advanced services. The company is utilizing Evolution uDTAs to support their customers on the all digital platform. WOW! conducted an extensive product evaluation process through which Evolution Digital uDTAs were selected to operate on WOW!'s existing Cisco network. Evolution's uDTAs are designed to work on existing Motorola and Cisco platforms, and are a cost-effective solution for cable systems in need of reclaiming bandwidth. "We selected Evolution Digital because of their background as pioneers in DTA development," explains Cash Hagen, Chief Technical Officer for WOW! "Beyond the fact that they offer a fully certified product, Evolution demonstrated to us their commitment to building a high quality product which also includes a Factory to Home fulfillment program. The Evolution Fulfillment program enables us to rapidly deploy uDTAs in fully branded self-install kits in a short period of time." "We are honored to be selected by an operator that has such a commitment to the overall customer experience," states Chris Egan, CEO of Evolution Digital. "It was evident in WOW!'s selection process that making this digital upgrade as simple and non-disruptive as possible for their customers is their main goal." Evolution Digital has launched a new turnkey Factory to Home Fulfillment program in 2011 with WOW!. "This Factory to Home initiative is an excellent addition to Evolution's goal of reducing the cost, time and effort required of operators to deploy DTAs," says Brent Smith, President of Evolution Digital. "Now even smaller operators can take advantage of going all-digital and reclaiming bandwidth, without getting bogged down with logistics." In the new fulfillment program, Evolution will manage the DTA deployment logistics to the operators' specifications. In WOW!'s case, Evolution will be managing shipping from the factory, sorting and assigning DTAs in their 30,000 square foot facility in Centennial, Colorado. From there, Evolution will work with existing logistics and shipping partners to utilize regional hubs to deliver DTAs to WOW! customers directly in a customer branded, complete WOW! Self Install Kit.
