FierceCable 's list of the top cable technologies of 2013 leads with a look at the video gateways--or "super DVRs"--that Comcast, Time Warner Cable and other major MSOs will deploy this year as they attempt to stave off competition from products such as DirecTV's Genie and Dish Network's Hopper multiroom DVRs.

TiVo said it struck a deal with Alaskan triple-play provider GCI to deploy home gateway devices that will power a whole-home video solution.

South Korean set-top manufacturer Humax increased its stake in residential gateway vendor MMC Technology, in a deal that the company says will help it sell gateways to U.S. pay-TV providers.
