Did Cisco's videoscape czar Jesper Andersen get the guillotine?

Jesper Andersen's Videoscape sales are reported under Cisco's SP Video sales which have had 3-consecutive quarters in a row of declining sales.

Update 5/12/2014 - 11:37am:

"I am extremely pleased to announce Yvette Kanouff is joining Cisco to become leader of our service provider Video Software and Solutions (SPVSS) organization, the home of Cisco's Videoscape software and solutions for pay-TV service providers and media and entertainment companies."

Yvette KanouffAlthough Cisco has declined to confirm it, Multichannel News is reporting that Cablevision EVP, Yvette Kanouff, will replace Jesper Andersen at Cisco:

Perhaps ominously for Cisco's shareholders, it appears that Kanouff was previously forced out as the President of the cable video vendor, SeaChange International.

In the below video, Yvette Kanouff describes the multi-screen environment for cable operators:
