Amsterdam – September 12, 2026 -- NetActuate has launched MoQ Relay, a managed Media over QUIC delivery network that lets broadcasters and streaming platforms publish a live feed once and distribute it to subscribers from relay capacity in more than 45 locations worldwide.

Relay tests show a single feed can multiply reach without added backbone cost

In internal testing across a four-relay setup, one relay delivered sixteen times more video output while drawing the same backbone capacity required to serve a single viewer. NetActuate says this decouples audience size from network cost, a key constraint as satellite capacity used for broadcast distribution is being scaled back globally.

Denver – September 12, 2026 -- Bluepeak, a fiber internet provider operating across six U.S. states, has named Ken Johnson as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective September 12, 2026, succeeding Rich Fish, who is retiring after six years at the helm.

San Jose, California – September 12, 2026 -- Harmonic (NASDAQ: HLIT) launched cOS SensAI, a vendor-agnostic, software-based intelligence platform designed to unify fragmented network data for broadband operators, with Analysys Mason estimating the addressable market at approximately $2.2 billion annually among Tier 2 and smaller broadband service providers.

SensAI consolidates data from thousands of disparate network sources into a single operational model

The platform builds a continuously updated, real-time model of a provider's operational ecosystem, correlating signals across network devices, tools, applications and customer premise equipment. It aims to replace the manual process of pulling data from a dozen separate systems, a task Hotwire Communications CTO Pragash Pillai described as tedious and time-consuming prior to deployment.

Hangzhou – September 12, 2026 -- More than a year after Hikvision launched its large-scale Guanlan AI models, the company reports measurable operational gains across perimeter security, storage efficiency and video search, driven by deep learning integration at the camera and software level.

DeepinViewX cameras cut perimeter false alarms by 90%

Legacy perimeter systems are frequently triggered by animals, weather and moving vegetation, burying genuine threats under manual review workloads. Hikvision's DeepinViewX cameras, running the Guanlan model, reduce false alarms by 90%, detect targets at double the range of conventional cameras, and cut repeated alarms for the same target by half. The system applies across optical cameras for short-range perimeters and thermal, radar and fiber-optic sensors for long-distance monitoring.

Berlin – September 12, 2026 -- SATELLAI, an AI-driven pet wellness company, deepened its partnership with Deutsche Telekom IoT and Swift Navigation at IFA 2026, combining three technology layers to scale connected pet devices into international markets.

Boca Raton, Fla. – – September 12, 2026 -- Telit Cinterion unveiled an edge AI software development kit that runs machine learning inference directly on the application core of its cellular modules, eliminating the need for a separate AI accelerator chip. The IoT connectivity provider said proof-of-concept testing on image classification and object detection tasks kept CPU consumption at or below 17%, a threshold that avoids thermal throttling of 4G and 5G radio performance.

SDK embeds Google's LiteRT runtime into module firmware set for Q4 2026 release

The kit incorporates LiteRT, the runtime formerly known as TensorFlow Lite, into the Linux-based firmware of upcoming Telit Cinterion AI-enabled module variants spanning 4G, 5G RedCap and high-performance 5G. The company plans to ship the SDK in the fourth quarter of 2026.

San Jose, Calif. – September 11, 2026 -- Harmonic (NASDAQ: HLIT) has launched cOS SensAI, a vendor-agnostic intelligence fabric designed to unify fragmented network data for broadband operators, targeting a market Analysys Mason values at approximately $2.2 billion per year among tier 2 and smaller service providers.

SensAI consolidates data from thousands of network sources into a single operational model

The platform builds a continuously updated real-time model of an operator's network devices and system relationships, correlating signals across systems to explain the reasoning behind each diagnosis. Harmonic says the tool is built to progressively automate the workflows operators repeat most frequently, reducing reliance on manual dashboard-switching during troubleshooting.

Los Angeles – September 11, 2026 -- Shareholders of Cogent Communications Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: CCOI) have until September 21, 2026, to seek lead plaintiff status in a securities fraud class action covering purchases made between February 29, 2024, and May 1, 2026.

Law firm Schall, Brown & Schwartz LLP alleges Cogent misrepresented its optical wavelength order backlog

According to the complaint filed by Schall, Brown & Schwartz LLP ('SBS'), Cogent's stated backlog of orders for optical wavelength products was unlikely to generate revenue because customers in that backlog were unwilling to accept delivery, even where the company was capable of fulfilling orders. The suit alleges the company was not on track to meet its revenue targets and other performance goals throughout the class period, rendering its public statements materially misleading under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rule 10b-5.
