How We Help in IP Disputes and Transactions
  • Support intellectual property disputes involving fixed broadband access technologies, telecom network infrastructure, OSS/BSS platforms, and television/content delivery systems — including standard-essential patents (SEPs), non-SEPs, and trade secrets.
  • Analyze infringement, validity, and prior art issues in broadband and telecom standards, protocols, and equipment.
  • Deliver expert testimony, technical evaluations, and strategic insights across the full spectrum of broadband and telecom technologies.
  • Advise on mergers, acquisitions, licensing, and investments related to broadband networks, telecom systems, and media delivery platforms.

Broadband & Telecom Systems Expertise

Our expertise also extends to the transport, service, and content layers of broadband and telecom systems. This includes transport and interconnect technologies such as backbone and metro networks, carrier Ethernet, software-defined networking (SDN), and network functions virtualization (NFV).

We also have deep experience with OSS/BSS platforms, covering service provisioning, network configuration, fault management, billing, CRM, order management, product catalogs, and orchestration for broadband and enterprise services.

In addition, we support television and media delivery systems, spanning satellite, cable, terrestrial, and IPTV platforms (DVB-S/T/C, IPTV), as well as digital headend equipment, antennas, set-top boxes (STBs), electronic programming guides (EPGs), conditional access systems, and content delivery platforms.

These capabilities are complemented by deep expertise in the underlying protocols, standards, security, and devices that power broadband and telecom systems.

  • Access Networks: fiber optics (FTTH, GPON, XGS-PON), DSL/VDSL, DOCSIS, satellite communications, and fixed wireless access (FWA)
  • Core & Backbone Networks: optical transport networks (OTN), high-capacity routing and switching, IP/MPLS, peering, and interconnect
  • Network Protocols: Ethernet, IP (IPv4/IPv6), TCP/UDP, PPPoE, DOCSIS, broadband authentication and access control, and routing protocols (OSPF, BGP)
  • Emerging Paradigms: cloud-native networking, edge computing, virtualization, and convergence of fixed and mobile networks
  • Standards & Frameworks: ITU-T, MEF, IETF, TM Forum Frameworx, and DVB Project
  • Security & Management: network monitoring, intrusion detection, authentication, encryption, lawful intercept, and data retention
  • Devices & Endpoints: customer premises equipment (CPE), modems, gateways, routers, and fixed wireless antennas
