Switched digital video provider BigBand Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: BBND) reported this morning that the third-largest U.S. cable operator, Cox Communications, will use the company’s switched digital video in multiple cable systems.
BigBand said Cox, who has already begun to employ its product in the Northern Virginia market, plans to use the company’s solution to make the most of its bandwidth. BigBand said this will enable significant expansion of its HDTV lineups in markets across the country.
Shares of BigBand were halted in pre-market trading.
