Qorvo Expands DOCSIS 4.0 Portfolio for Broadband Cable Networks
Qorvo, Inc. QRVO recently introduced two cutting-edge hybrid power doubler amplifiers, QPA3311 and QPA3316, designed for Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification ('DOCSIS') 4.0 broadband cable networks. The DOCSIS technology is essential for delivering high-speed internet and video services over existing cable systems.For cable-based broadband services, hybrid fiber coax ('HFC') systems serve as a backbone. It enables fast internet delivery using DOCSIS 4.0 technology and effectively supports advanced use cases such as high-definition video streaming, enterprise connectivity to various business services. The growing proliferation of edge computing, AI workloads, IoT applications and various other use cases, such as remote healthcare, smart cities, are driving demand for intelligent, adaptive HFC networks.Qorvo's new DOCSIS 4.0 product offerings, QPA3311 and QPA3316, are well equipped to support this transition. These power doubler amplifiers offer higher total composite power and improved signal integrity to reduce cascade requirements and enhance end-of-line performance. This eliminates the requirement for costly booster amps and lower infrastructure costs. The devices effectively support downstream operations up to 1.8 GHz. QPA3311 is ideal for power-efficient designs that need solid end-of-line performance, while the QPA3316 effectively supports high-output nodes that require maximum downstream performance. Such cutting-edge capabilities will significantly bolster visibility, efficiency and adaptability in modern HFC systems.
By minimizing the cascade requirements and other infrastructure costs, Qorvo is addressing key industry challenges related to cost and performance in HFC networks. With its leading-edge innovation, the company is removing the roadblocks and paving the evolution of smart amplifiers and Unified DOCSIS. The launch of QPA3311 and QPA3316 gives service providers an agile and cost-effective way to adopt DOCSIS 4.0 systems and support growing demand for improved network efficiency. This will likely boost Qorvo's commercial prospects.The company is likely to benefit from the faster-than-expected transition from 4G LTE to 5G technology in emerging markets. The emerging market for 5G advanced smartphones that feature additional transmit, receive and satellite bands aligns favorably with Qorvo's portfolio and boasts substantial growth opportunity.
Shares of Qorvo have lost 22.4% over the past year compared with the industry's decline of 29.2%.

Shrinkflation may be returning for 2025
(WHTM) — After months of rising costs, you may notice some grocery store prices holding steady. But, we may still be paying more. Remember shrinkflation, that trending term a few years ago when it seemed every grocery product was getting smaller? Well, for 2025, it's back. Just when it seemed manufacturers had taken a breather from shrinking their products, it seems they have found some new ways to give us less. The site Consumer World shared photos of the latest items to downsize, including Simply Orange, which it claims recently shrunk from 52 to 46 ounces. Others include: Crystal Light: from six packets to four; Bounty Paper Towels: Consumer World says their triple rolls have shrunk from 135 sheets to 123; Ruffles Potato Chips: Consumer World says they were nine ounces but are now eight and a half, though the site says the amount of air inside the bag looks to be the same. And, from the 'Doesn't That Stink' file, the fact that manufacturers continue to find new ways to shrink products that have already been downsized, according to Consumer World's Ed Dworsky. 'There's almost no product category, except eggs maybe, that hasn't been downsized over the past few years,' Dworsky said. Despite the run up in egg prices the past year, he points out that you still get a dozen in a carton, but shrinking to ten eggs is always a possibility.
