COMCAST TO DELIVER MULTI-GIG SYMMETRICAL SPEEDS TO CUSTOMERS OVER EXISTING CONNECTIONS IN WORLD-FIRST DOCSIS 4.0 DEPLOYMENT

Comcast Colorado

Comcast announced that next week it will begin to introduce the first residential customers in the world to next-generation Internet powered by DOCSIS 4.0 technology. The latest version of DOCSIS technology is a giant leap forward in Internet connectivity that can deliver multi-gigabit symmetrical speeds to customers over the connections that already exist in tens of millions of homes in Comcast markets across the country. As a part of the launch, Comcast will introduce a new portfolio of symmetrical products for residential customers. Comcast will begin rolling out DOCSIS 4.0 to select neighborhoods in Colorado Springs, CO, and will launch new markets throughout the country over the next few years. Select areas of Atlanta, GA and Philadelphia, PA are expected to begin rolling out before the end of this year. “The ubiquity of our network, which is already accessible to tens of millions of homes, provides us with an incredible opportunity to bring multi-gigabit upload and download speeds to communities across the country with the scale and efficiency that no other provider can replicate,” said Dave Watson, President & CEO, Comcast Cable. “Our connectivity experience, powered by the Xfinity 10G Network, will allow us to deliver speeds up to 10 Gbps over our traditional network to virtually all our customers, plus even better reliability, lower latency, and the best in-home WiFi coverage. We’re entering the next phase of this industry leadership with DOCSIS 4.0 technology to introduce X-Class Internet products that will revolutionize the way our customers get online today and many years into the future.” Introducing X-Class Internet Symmetrical 10 Gbps service based on fiber-to-the-home technology is already available in all of Comcast’s markets, and as part of its continued network evolution and the introduction of DOCSIS 4.0, multi-gig symmetrical speeds are rolling out. New and existing residential customers connected via DOCSIS 4.0 will have access to Comcast’s newly introduced next-generation X-Class Internet portfolio. X-Class speed tiers include X-300 Mbps, X-500 Mbps, X-1 Gbps and X-2 Gbps upload and download speeds and low lag for the ultimate live sports streaming experience on Peacock, smooth connections on work calls, and ultra-responsive gaming​. “The enhancements that we have been making to our network over the past few years have been foundational to creating an award-winning network architecture that is fully virtualized and capable of delivering these exciting capabilities to our customers,” said Elad Nafshi, Chief Network Officer, Comcast Cable. “This is an awesome achievement and I’m incredibly proud of the team of brilliant technologists here at Comcast who have worked relentlessly to make DOCSIS 4.0 a reality ahead of schedule.” Full Duplex DOCSIS Comcast’s path to DOCSIS 4.0 leverages breakthrough network technology known as “Full Duplex” that utilizes the same network spectrum to dramatically increase upstream speeds without sacrificing downstream speeds. Comcast 10G Innovation The DOCSIS 4.0 launch is the latest in a long line of world firsts that Comcast has spearheaded in the effort to implement DOCSIS 4.0. In April 2021, Comcast conducted the first-ever live test of full duplex DOCSIS and later that year tested the world’s first 10G connection all the way from the network to a modem. In 2022, Comcast conducted a world-first live trial and connected a business location in the Philadelphia region to its live network including a DOCSIS 4.0-enabled 10G node and multiple cable modems. In February 2023, the company marked another major milestone in the nation’s largest and fastest multi-gig deployment by announcing its latest Xfinity 10G Network upgrade launched to 10 million homes and businesses. In addition to Comcast’s efforts to deploy DOCSIS 4.0 and other 10G upgrades across its footprint, the company continually invests in delivering a superior connectivity experience that is not only fast but is also reliable with less lag. Award Winning Tech – Comcast has lead the industry in deploying technologies within its network to enhance speed, reliability and latency like distributed access architecture (DAA) and a vCMTS, which earned an Emmy® Award for Technology and Engineering. Smart Network – Comcast-developed technology like Comcast Octave and Xfinity Fiber Meter (XMF), enables optimized network performance by proactively identifying and even repairing network impairments that impact customers’ services. Storm-Ready WiFi – In August 2023, Comcast introduced Storm-Ready WiFi, the first product of its kind offered by an Internet provider designed to maintain a connection during a power or local outage. Low Latency – Deployed Active Queue Management (AQM) system nationally and currently trialing the latest CableLabs low latency DOCSIS (LLD) specification. DOCSIS Technology Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) was first introduced in 1997 as a solution for high-speed data to be transmitted over existing cable wires, replacing dial-up phone lines for an Internet connection. Comcast has been a leader in deploying DOCSIS updates to deliver faster speeds to all the homes and businesses in its service areas. In early 2016, Comcast was the first to introduce DOCSIS 3.1-powered Gigabit Internet service and rapidly expanded Gigabit speeds across the country to more locations than any other provider. Xfinity customers in Colorado Springs will be able to sign up online for the new DOCSIS 4.0-powered Internet plans. ### About Comcast Corporation Comcast is a global media and technology company.

Chipper

Chipper, the app that empowers student loan borrowers to better manage their debt, today announced that its full featured mobile app is now available to help borrowers lower their monthly payments and eliminate their debt. Chipper is a simple, easy to use app to help the 44-45 million Americans who have federal student loans manage their debt, find forgiveness, and lower monthly payments. The all-in-one student loan repayment app coincides with student loan payments restarting in October, following the pause that began in March 2020. Student loan debt is the second-biggest consumer debt category after mortgages, with the total amount of student debt now approaching $1.8 trillion and the average monthly payment being $400. Chipper has helped more than 140,000 customers conquer student debt up to four years faster with an average savings of $307 per month. Four out of five (82%) Chipper users find a better repayment plan through its app. "The restart of student loan payments has serious consequences on millions of Americans who are struggling financially and are already dealing with inflation and rising housing costs,” said Tony Aguilar, founder and CEO of Chipper. “Our app uses advanced technology to seamlessly connect student loans and automate enrollments into lower payment plans, improving outcomes for borrowers who are desperate for relief and forgiveness. We have already helped our members qualify for more than $250 million in student loan forgiveness.

Over-the-Counter Hearing Aids are Breaking the Hearing Barrier and Revolutionizing Accessibility

YourUpdateTV

October marks the beginning of Audiology Awareness Month, a crucial period to highlight the importance of hearing health. Recently, Shannon Pope, Head of Diversity & Sustainability at Sony Electronics, conducted a satellite media tour to help raise awareness about hearing health and to highlight the latest advancements in hearing solutions and over-the-counter hearing aids. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/auiXuwy0Olo According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 1 in 4 U.S. adults ages 20 to 69 who report excellent to good hearing already shows signs of hearing loss due to noise overexposure. Even though hearing loss is widespread, for many people, hearing health isn’t a consideration until they find they have noticeable hearing loss, such as missing part of a conversation. Sony’s Over-the-Counter Hearing Aids were created for the purpose of breaking down current barriers faced by those with hearing loss and provide an easy, do-it-yourself hearing solution for adults 18 and older with signs of mild to moderate hearing loss all without a doctor’s prescription. To learn more about your hearing, and how you could benefit from over-the-counter hearing aids, try this online at home hearing evaluation: electronics.sony.com/hearingtest. iv The CRE-C10 and the CRE-E10 self-fitting over-the-counter hearing aids were designed with the understanding that one size does not fit all, and that people deserve options that best fit their unique needs, situations, and lives. Utilizing the Sony Hearing Control app, users can set up and customize the devices. The CRE-C10 and CRE-E10 intuitively adapt to each user’s speech and surroundings, blending the latest technology with comfort to meet each individual’s hearing goals. i Created for daily use each device features an easy-to-navigate app interface with customizable options for the wearer’s specific hearing needs and preferences. Sony’s two models provide more choice when it comes to the look and capabilities of high-end hearing devices. i As one of the smallest over-the-counter hearing aids on the market, the CRE-C10 has a sleek, discreet design that delivers exceptional sound quality, yet is virtually invisible when worn and has a long battery life of up to 70 hours of continuous use. ii The CRE-E10 has an earbud-like design combining excellent sound quality and comfort, and offers the wearer both confidence and convenience. In addition, CRE-E10 has a rechargeable battery for wireless charging that delivers up to 26 hours of continuous use ii and is also Bluetooth compatible letting the user easily connect to streaming audio or music (iOS only). iii Regardless of which device the user selects, both models deliver outstanding automatic noise reduction and speech in noise features, for better understanding in challenging listening environments like restaurants. The user also has the ability to adjust and customize both volume and sound quality in the moment to ensure the best personalized listening experience in a variety of settings. As Sony works to fill the world with emotion, through the power of creativity and technology, these hearing devices hope to help to destigmatize the wearing of hearing aids and make the conversation more accessible while offering a premium over-the-counter hearing experience at a more affordable price point than current prescription devices. The Sony CRE-E10 and CRE-C10 i over-the-counter hearing aids are available directly from Sony and through third-party retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, and select hearing-care professionals.

What Is the Best Gun Safe For My Car?

GOSAFE

With the growing prevalence of concealed carry, it is crucial for firearm owners to be well-informed about the restrictions on carrying firearms into certain buildings. Whether dictated by federal law, official policies of establishments like banks, or the preferences of privately owned businesses, there are times when firearms must remain secured in vehicles. To address this need and prevent theft, responsible gun owners are turning to car gun safes. Balancing Access and Security Selecting the right car gun safe involves striking a balance between accessibility and security. The chosen safe should feature a secure lock and provide a means of keeping the firearm discreetly out of sight within the vehicle. Various styles of safes cater to different preferences, offering ease of access, enhanced concealability, or robust security measures. The choice often depends on the vehicle's size and available storage space. Consider Your Vehicle's Interior Effective firearm storage in your car necessitates efficient utilization of available space. Larger vehicles like trucks and SUVs typically offer more room to work with, while smaller sedans may have limited space. Therefore, compact car safes are preferable, particularly if you regularly use vehicles of different sizes. 4 Ways to Secure a Handgun in Your Car Securing handguns when they are not on your person is a fundamental aspect of responsible firearm ownership. Car gun safes come in various types, including Go Safe Gun Locks, tie-down travel safes, vehicle-mounted gun safes, and concealed car safes. GoSafe Gun Locks: The GoSafe Mobile Safe is an innovative solution for securing a pistol in your vehicle. Unlike traditional gun safes, it secures the pistol through the magazine well, reducing overall size and allowing for layering with other safes for added security. This mobile option provides control over your firearm, even when using someone else's safe, whether in the car or elsewhere. Tie Down Travel Gun Safes: Lockable travel gun safes are a common choice, offering affordability and portability. These small, lockable containers are designed to meet air travel restrictions for firearms and can include a metal tie-down cable for added security. Careful research is essential to ensure durability and effective counter-theft features. Vehicle Mounted Gun Safes: These safes attach to the vehicle, often by bolting them to the frame. While they provide permanent or semi-permanent storage solutions, they may limit the available space in your car. Some vehicle-mounted safes fit between the console or in unused spaces, but the chosen location depends on your vehicle's design. Concealed Car Safes/Console Vaults: Concealed car safes and console vaults blend into your vehicle's interior, using obscurity to secure your firearm. They may replace or partially resemble existing vehicle components, such as headrests or console spaces. These options offer convenience but may limit space and come in varying designs to suit different vehicles. GoSafe Mobile Safe & GoSafe Mobile Mag - Mobile and Secure Gun Safe for Your Car For those needing to secure their firearms while out in public, GoSafe introduces the Mobile Safe and Mobile Mag—a new take on gun locks for vehicles. These innovative solutions offer easy concealment and user-friendly operation while securely locking down your pistol. They can be used independently or in conjunction with other safes for added security. Made from high-quality materials, the Mobile Safe and Mobile Mag ensure consistency, mobility, and reliability. In comparison to other car safe options, they provide easy access to your firearm while maintaining a high level of security. The responsibility of firearm ownership extends to the secure storage of firearms when not in use. Car gun safes offer a practical solution for those times when carrying a firearm into a building is not an option. By selecting the right safe for your needs and vehicle, you can ensure both convenience and security.

7 Benefits of Using a Gun Lock: Ensuring Safety and Responsibility in Firearm Ownership

GOSAFE

Safety and responsibility are paramount when it comes to firearm ownership. Safeguarding firearms is a top priority, especially in households with children. Gun locks, a simple yet effective investment, offer multiple advantages beyond peace of mind. In this press release, we highlight the importance of gun locks and their seven significant benefits. What are Gun Locks? Gun locks are specially designed to secure firearms, particularly semi-automatic pistols, and they come in various forms. The most basic type is the cable lock, which is similar to bike locks and is threaded through the firearm's chamber, magazine well, and locking mechanism. While effective, this classic design lacks convenience and intuitiveness. Another option is the trigger lock, which covers the trigger and trigger guard, preventing the firearm from being fired. This is useful when keeping the firearm loaded is desired. Newer alternatives include the GoSafe Mobile Safe and the GoSafe Mobile Mag, both of which work like a regular magazine and block the pistol's trigger bar. The Mobile Safe is ideal for those needing to store an unloaded pistol, either due to local laws or personal preference. The Mobile Mag, on the other hand, offers security while retaining access to a loaded firearm for home defense. Benefits of Using Gun Locks Increased Safety and Security: Gun locks enjoy broad support from violence prevention groups, city councils, and concerned citizens, contributing to safer communities and reduced injury risks. Using gun locks proactively fosters goodwill within communities and helps destigmatize firearms ownership, paving the way for progress in firearm legislation and deregulation. Protection for Children: Gun locks, often referred to as firearm safety devices, provide essential safeguards to protect children from potential accidents. While proper firearm training is the best preventive measure, gun locks and products like the GoSafe Mobile Safe offer additional protection for very young children who may not yet understand firearm safety. Minimizing Accidental Firearm Discharge: Gun locks help reduce accidental discharges, which can result from factors like fatigue and inexperience. Storing firearms unloaded or locked reduces the risk of such incidents, enhancing overall safety. The Mobile Mag offers a convenient balance between safety and accessibility, allowing users to lock a loaded firearm without the need for constant unloading. Compliance with Local Gun Laws: Several states require firearms to be equipped with gun locks, safety storage devices, or gun safes. Using compliant locks and safes helps firearm owners avoid legal fines and penalties based on their location. Reducing the Risk of Unauthorized Use: Locks like GoSafe require keys that are typically accessible only to the lock's purchaser. This ensures that stolen firearms cannot be easily used and adds an extra layer of security in homes where unauthorized access is a concern. Potential Reduction of Insurance Premiums: Firearms insurance is vital, but its cost can be prohibitive. Using gun locks and safes can lower insurance premiums, as it demonstrates a commitment to firearm safety, akin to maintaining a clean driving record for auto insurance. Be sure to inform your insurance provider about the safety measures you have in place. Convenience and Flexibility: When a firearms safe or cabinet is unavailable, gun locks offer a convenient alternative. The GoSafe Mobile series, particularly the Mobile Mag, is exceptionally compact and intuitive, making it easy to secure your pistol in various locations, even while carrying concealed. Using a gun lock is more than an administrative task; it's a crucial step in preventing accidents and legal complications. The seven benefits outlined above highlight the importance of firearm safety and responsibility. Consider GoSafe's Mobile Safe and Mobile Mag as convenient and intuitive options for securing your firearms.
