Large-Scale IP Network Migration

Infinity Tech Realigned Comcast's IP network from individual legacy isolated networks onto a new fully integrated Unified Engineering Network ("UEN"). Within the Head-End and Hub facilities, the migrated devices included Controllers (DNCS, AppServers), QAMs, QPSKs, Set-Top Networks, Multiplexers, Monitoring Equipment, and other mission-critical gear.

Infinity Tech developed software-based tools to perform database mining, database realignments, and inventory tracking. Also developed the Network Validation Toolkit, a hardware and software solution used to ensure deployment readiness by automatically testing switch configurations, Relay Agents, and Cabling.
