SHERIDAN, WYOMING – May 15, 2025 – Teleste has announced a strategic partnership with Mega Hertz (MHz), a U.S.-based value-added reseller and systems integrator, to expand the deployment of its advanced 1.8 GHz ICON amplifiers across North America. This collaboration aims to bring Teleste’s intelligent network technology to small and mid-tier broadband operators, addressing the evolving needs of high-capacity, future-ready broadband infrastructure.
Enabling Smarter, Scalable HFC Networks
The partnership positions Teleste to meet the rising demand for intelligent hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) networks capable of supporting DOCSIS 4.0 and 1.8 GHz operations. Teleste’s ICON amplifiers, already fully deployed in live networks, are designed to enhance broadband performance and operational efficiency while reducing total cost of ownership for network operators.
The amplifiers offer a compelling array of features, including:
- Advanced automation to streamline deployment and minimize manual intervention
- Remote monitoring and optional telemetry for proactive maintenance
- Superior service quality and network reliability
- Optimized for next-generation broadband delivery with DOCSIS 4.0 compatibility
“As the first 1.8 GHz amplifiers fully deployed in live networks, our ICON amplifiers exemplify our vision for smarter, more automated, and more sustainable cable broadband networks,” said Steve Condra, Vice President of North America at Teleste. “The increasing adoption of these devices demonstrates the industry’s confidence in their ability to address today’s connectivity challenges.”
Strategic Alignment for Market Growth
Texas-based Mega Hertz brings a strong track record of serving broadband operators nationwide with advanced, multi-technology integration services. With a deep understanding of the North American market, Mega Hertz’s integration expertise aligns well with Teleste’s innovation roadmap, ensuring that intelligent amplifier technology reaches operators ready to evolve their infrastructure.
“We are thrilled to partner with Teleste and introduce their intelligent ICON 1.8 GHz amplifiers to our North American clients,” said Drew Kempen, Executive Vice President, Sales and Engineering at Mega Hertz. “Teleste’s innovative intelligent technology aligns seamlessly with our mission to provide our clientele with advanced broadband solutions that deliver higher performance and exceptional quality of service.”
This alliance empowers Mega Hertz to leverage Teleste’s innovations in concert with its own engineering capabilities, helping operators increase network capacity, enhance subscriber satisfaction, and future-proof their infrastructure against growing bandwidth demand.
Driving Industry-Wide Transformation
The deployment of Teleste’s intelligent amplifiers is a timely response to the broader industry trend toward distributed access architectures (DAA) and intelligent network automation. As cable operators face growing pressure to scale capacity and performance while managing operational complexity, Teleste and Mega Hertz are well-positioned to deliver transformative value.
Key benefits for network operators include:
- Faster deployment of DOCSIS 4.0-ready technology
- Reduced truck rolls through remote diagnostics
- Lower energy consumption and environmental impact
- Improved SLA compliance through real-time performance monitoring
By combining Teleste’s R&D-driven product innovation with Mega Hertz’s integration reach and service model, this partnership sets a new standard for mid-market broadband expansion in North America.
