Vecima and Net-Com to Deploy Entra® DAA Remote MACPHY with Hanstholm Net in Denmark
Vecima Networks Inc. (TSX: VCM) today announced that Net-Com is deploying Vecima's Entra® SC-1D Access Node and Entra® Access Controller ('EAC') solutions for Hanstholm Net, an internet service provider in Denmark.
Vecima's Entra SC-1D Remote MACPHY node, a key component of the Entra Distributed Access Architecture ('DAA') product portfolio, equips cable operators to transition their networks toward greater efficiency and scalability. By moving MAC and PHY layer functions to the access edge, the SC-1D reduces core network load, lowers latency, and increases bandwidth availability, supporting efficient delivery of high-throughput services.
With enhanced DOCSIS® 3.1 support for Remote MACPHY nodes, the Entra SC-1D Access Node delivers fiber-comparable performance over existing HFC networks. It offers a cost-effective, easily deployable, and future-ready path to 10 Gigabit Internet access while preserving existing infrastructure investments.
Complementing the SC-1D, Vecima's EAC serves as a centralized management platform that orchestrates the complex interactions between the core network and distributed access devices. The EAC ensures seamless integration and optimal performance of the DAA ecosystem, facilitating advanced features such as dynamic bandwidth allocation and network virtualization.
'Our transition to Distributed Access Architecture with Vecima's Remote MACPHY solutions represents a strategic leap forward in both performance and scalability,' said Lars Røge Hamer, Chairman at Hanstholm Net. 'Achieving a reduction in headend power consumption by around 60 percent, while unlocking the scalability needed for multigigabit services allows us to operate more efficiently and deliver next-generation connectivity without compromise.'
'Hanstholm Net's adoption of Vecima's technology through Net-Com, marks a strategic advancement in its network infrastructure to support high-performance broadband delivery', said Gert K. Hansen, CTO at Net-Com. 'This partnership represents an important step forward as Vecima's reliable products and solid support align well with our plans to expand DOCSIS® services and support other operators as we continue to grow in Denmark.'
Equipped for multigigabit downstream capacity and fully licensed to support additional bandwidth without incremental costs, the Entra SC-1D Access Node offers operators a future-ready platform with simplified deployment and minimal operational overhead.
'As part of Vecima's Remote MACPHY suite, the Entra SC-1D Access Node and Entra Access Controller together deliver significant performance gains and centralized orchestration, bridging the core network with distributed access devices through simplified, scalable control,' said Ryan Nicometo, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Vecima Video & Broadband Solutions. 'We are excited that our partnership with Net-Com is bringing Vecima's industry-leading access solutions to more operators in Europe. This reinforces our global market leadership in Remote MACPHY technologies.'
The Vecima DAA portfolio, recognized by the Dell'Oro Group for the fourth consecutive year as the global market share leader in R-MACPHY and Remote Optical Line Terminal solutions ('R-OLT'), is deployed by operators around the world. Vecima will showcase its industry-leading cable and fiber access solutions, including the SC-1D, at ANGA COM 2025.

France approaches Renault on drone production, Renault says
FILE - In this Feb. 12, 2015 file photo, the logo of Renault is pictured in Paris. (AP Photo/Jacques Brinon) PARIS — France's defence ministry has approached Renault with a view to helping to manufacture drones, the automaker said on Sunday, after the ministry last week floated the idea French companies could help with production in Ukraine. 'We have been contacted by the defence ministry about the possibility of producing drones. Discussions have taken place, but no decision has been taken at this stage, as we are awaiting further details on this project from the ministry,' Renault said in a statement to Reuters. Earlier on Sunday, French news website Franceinfo reported the French carmaker was expected to produce drones in Ukraine. Asked about the report, the ministry told Reuters it was up to the carmaker, without naming it, to say whether it would participate. Also without naming any companies, Defence Minister Sebastien Lecornu told French news channel LCI on Friday that France would set up a partnership between a major French carmaker and a small defence firm to equip production lines in Ukraine for building drones. Drones have played a significant role in Ukraine's defence since Russia's full-scale invasion of the country in 2022, providing surveillance and strike capabilities that have shaped battlefield tactics against Russian forces.

Tesla's Downturn Continues as China-Made EV Sales Plunge 15%. Should You Sell TSLA Stock Here?
2025 has been a challenging year for Tesla (TSLA) shareholders, with the stock trading down 25% year-to-date. From CEO Elon Musk's controversial stint in President Donald Trump's administration to collapsing sales in Europe and growing pressure from Chinese competitors like BYD (BYDDY), the headwinds have been relentless. Although Musk's exit from his government role brought momentary relief, the stock hasn't found its footing yet. This was especially evident during this past week, when tensions skyrocketed between President Trump and Musk and it was reported that sales of Tesla's electric vehicles (EVs) in China continued to fall in May and have now fallen for eight straight months. In May alone, deliveries of the Model 3 and Model Y, covering both domestic and export sales, slipped to 61,662 units, marking a 15% year-over-year decline. Even a modest 5.5% rise from April couldn't mask the growing impact of fierce price wars in the world's largest auto market. Meanwhile, BYD, Tesla's top rival, continued to build momentum with a 14.1% year-over-year jump in global passenger vehicle sales, outpacing Tesla even as its own growth cooled from April's 19.4% surge. So, with Tesla under mounting pressure, is it time for investors to hit the brakes and sell? About Tesla Stock Once hailed as the crown jewel of the EV revolution, Tesla (TSLA) is now navigating a stormy 2025. After struggling with Elon Musk's political drama, mounting competition, and falling sales, Tesla is back in the headlines. Just as investors began to relax after Musk stepped away from his role in the Trump administration, fresh drama quickly reignited concerns. This time, it was a very public clash between Musk and Trump over the proposed 'The Big, Beautiful Bill,' a comprehensive piece of legislation currently being debated in the U.S. Congress. Musk heavily criticized this bill on X and Trump fired back by threatening to pull federal contracts and subsidies from both Tesla and SpaceX. The reaction was immediate. On June 5, Tesla shares tanked more than 14%, wiping out a staggering $150 billion in market value in just one day. With Tesla's market cap now hovering around $917 billion, shares of this EV maker are down roughly 30% in 2025, dramatically lagging behind the broader S&P 500 Index's ($SPX) marginal gain during the same stretch. While volatility is nothing new for Tesla investors, its latest sharp drop is evidence of just how tightly the company's fate is tied to Elon Musk's every move. Tesla's Q1 Earnings Snapshot Tesla opened 2025 on a sour note, delivering a first-quarter earnings report on April 22 that fell flat across the board. Revenue dropped 9% year-over-year to $19.3 billion, missing the analysts' target of $21.3 billion. But the real gut punch came from adjusted earnings, which plummeted 40% to just $0.27 per share, coming in nearly 35% below expectations. Tesla's automotive division sputtered in the first quarter, with revenue from its core business plunging 20%, dropping from $17.4 billion to about $14 billion. While the company blamed factory upgrades tied to the Model Y refresh, the damage ran deeper. Steep discounts and falling average selling prices put the brakes on profitability, weighing heavily on both revenue and margins. On a brighter note, Tesla's energy generation business surged 67% year-over-year to $2.7 billion, while its services segment posted a solid 15% gain to $2.6 billion. Still, faced with mounting headwinds across its core operations, Tesla struck a notably cautious tone. Rather than offering bold projections, the company chose to hit pause on big promises, stating it would 'revisit our 2025 guidance in our Q2 update.' What Do Analysts Expect for Tesla Stock? Analysts, much like investors, are starting to tread carefully with TSLA stock. Take Goldman Sachs, for example. The leading investment bank recently trimmed its price target on Tesla from $295 to $285 while sticking with a 'Neutral' rating. The move comes amid signs of slowing momentum, with weaker monthly sales data across major regions like the U.S., Europe, and China. While they're not pulling the plug on Tesla just yet, the tone is clearly more reserved as questions about near-term growth continue to mount. Overall, Wall Street remains on edge, with the consensus firmly favoring a cautious 'Hold' stance amid the ongoing uncertainty. Of the 41 analysts offering recommendations, 16 give it a solid 'Strong Buy,' two suggest a 'Moderate Buy,' 13 advocate 'Hold,' and the remaining 10 give a 'Strong Sell.' The average analyst price target of $292.17, which is actually slightly lower than where the stock is currently trading. However, the Street-high price target for TSLA is $500. Key Takeaways 2025 has been a tumultuous year for Tesla, with the stock significantly underperforming the broader market amid relentless headwinds. Plummeting sales in key markets like China, intense competition from rivals such as BYD, and persistent political drama surrounding CEO Elon Musk – including a recent clash with President Donald Trump – have all contributed to a substantial year-to-date decline and a significant one-day market value loss. Coupled with a disappointing Q1 earnings report, characterized by declining automotive revenue and a cautious outlook, analysts largely maintain a "Hold" rating on TSLA. While the stock's fate remains heavily tied to Musk's actions, and despite some bullish long-term price targets, the near-term outlook for the EV giant is clouded by considerable uncertainty.
