SCTE Energy
2020 Metrics Standards
The SCTE Standards program is developing universal
energy standards and operational practices that can support new cable services and make the delivery of existing services more efficient.
SCTE 210, 211, 212 and 213 are metrics standards that
are critical to achieving the power cost and consumption
reduction goals of the Energy 2020 program.
Operators should use these foundational tools to establish energy baselines and measure changes in power use
from the rack to the system level.
These initial metrics standards play a key role in gauging
the impact of future energy standards and operational
practices.
Creating this first wave of standards is only the beginning for Energy 2020. The real objective is for the entire
industry to join the effort by adopting these standards
and making energy as important as price and performance in the evaluation and purchase of new equipment.
The Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers
(SCTE) is part of a unique ecosystem that has the power
to prepare the workforce to meet the ever-changing demands of the Telecommunications Industry. Our members
can realize streamlined delivery of products and services,
improved customer satisfaction, and increased employee
retention rates directly impacting business results. In cooperation with our partners, CableLabs® and NCTA,
SCTE prepares tomorrow’s telecommunications leaders
by communicating new Industry trends and technology,
developing standards, and delivering relevant training and
certification programs to enhance members’ expertise and
professional development.
The National Cable and Telecommunications Association serves as our judicial and regulatory representative
when navigating FCC and other federal regulations.
On the technical side, CableLabs, a non-profit R&D lab, is
dedicated to industry innovation that significantly impacts
our member’s business. Working closely with SCTE/
ISBE, CableLabs researches, tests and develops new technology. Then, when ready for deployment, we make those
new technologies operational across the industry through
standards, training, and certification. SCTE/ISBE’s programs and Learning Management System deliver systematic training and career progressions that provide the industry with a high-performing, technical workforce that
drives business results.
SCTE and its global brand, the International Society of
Broadband Experts (ISBE), build value for corporate,
technology partners, and individual members by creating
peer networking opportunities, professional mentoring,
and communication of Industry information.

Farewell to our friend...Adam Kruse... You will be missed!
Click here for Adam's Paddle-Out Ceremony
We gathered at Imperial Beach on a beautiful Sunday morning
4/17/2016 to celebrate Adam’s life and perform the traditional
“surfer's paddle-out ceremony”. Adam Kruse, a long time
SCTE member, was employed with Cox Communications CA
for the past 18 years and most recently was involved in an honorable leadership role as Corporate Cox Business Field Service Manager. Additionally Adam held a position on the SCTE
San Diego Chapter Board of Directors from 2009 to 2016. He
also was a member of the SCTE Shasta / Rogue Chapter
Board of Directors from 2007 to 2009. Adam was an energized
SCTE member as a Board member here in San Diego and
consistently demonstrated his genuine passion and support for
the SCTE mission. He greatly reinforced the need for professional development and regularly expressed a powerful messaging style which truly inspired SCTE members and our industry friends to elevate their individual skills by engaging the
offerings of the SCTE.
Sincerely,
Bob Weaver—SCTE Region 1 Representative
