Nokia discontinues joint MoCA-based offering
Nokia has decided to stop investing in a joint MoCA-based offering with InCoax, citing insufficient customer interest. InCoax products will be removed from Nokia's customer offerings.
Nokia has informed InCoax that it will cease further investment in their joint MoCA-based offering, leading to the removal of InCoax products from Nokia's customer portfolio. The decision stems from what Nokia describes as insufficient customer interest in the collaborative solution.
MoCA (Multimedia over Coax Alliance) technology enables data transmission over coaxial cables, often used by internet service providers as a complementary or in-network solution. Nokia’s withdrawal suggests a potential market gap or a shift in strategy regarding this technology.
InCoax Networks AB is currently assessing the full implications of Nokia’s decision, including its impact on existing agreements between the two companies. The company has initiated discussions with Nokia to determine the path forward.
This move by Nokia could signal a broader trend in the telecommunications infrastructure market, where the demand for specific in-home networking solutions may be evolving, potentially favoring alternative technologies or different deployment models.
