HP - Homes Passed
By: Preethi Ramkumar
Meaning of HP – “Homes Passed” - are homes that could be easily and inexpensively connected to a cable network where the feeder cable is nearby. Cablevision continued to lead the nation’s top cable operators in the percentage of homes passed receiving high-speed data service. This is using a triple-play offer to drive phone service into 4.4 million passings in its service area where, as of year-end 2004, less than 300K had yet subscribed to voice. Cablevision says about 30% of gross subscriber adds are triple-play customers and all voice customers by definition are data customers. In five of its franchise areas the company has exceeded 60% data services penetration.
Though it was very late in deploying digital set-tops relative to its peers, Cablevision Systems jumped immediately to a leadership position in VOD, when it included on-demand programming as a key component of its company-wide digital rollout, which occurred in late 2001. It has since been an innovator in developing content specifically for cable’s VOD platform.
