Broadcom Introduces DOCSIS® EoC for EPON Product Portfolio in Support of China's Network Convergence
Provides up to 400 Mbps Support that Enables Cost-Effective, Triple-Play Services to Multi-Dwelling Units in China
BEIJING, Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- ICTC 2010 -- Broadcom Corporation (Nasdaq: BRCM), a global leader in semiconductors for wired and wireless communications, today introduced a customized, highly integrated and cost-efficient DOCSIS® Ethernet over Coax (EoC) for Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) solution in support of China's Next Generation Broadcast (NGB) initiative that will help to drive the convergence of telecommunications, Internet and cable television networks in China.
With a portfolio of market leading and high performance DOCSIS 2.0 and 3.0 cable modem, coax media converter (CMC), EPON and set-top box (STB) technologies, Broadcom is playing a key role in enabling the convergence of voice, video and data services in China and will be demonstrating these industry-leading solutions at this week's International Coverage and Transmission (ICTC) Conference in Beijing, booth #203.
Highlights/ Key Facts:
-- China's State Council has designated accelerated triple network
convergence as an important policy in 2010, and local scholars estimate
that triple network convergence will induce investment and consumption
of 700 billion yuan (about $103 billion), according to Digitimes
Research.
-- To help advance China's network convergence, DOCSIS provides a
standardized technology for triple play services over cable networks
with interoperability and powerful quality of service (QoS) methods that
ensure a high-quality TV, broadband and telephone experience.
-- Before the introduction of Broadcom's DOCSIS EOC for EPON solution,
DOCSIS was considered too expensive to deploy in China's
multi-dwelling units (MDUs).
-- However, leveraging already deployed and successful EPON technology
in China, Broadcom has developed a highly integrated DOCSIS EoC for
EPON solution that will allow Chinese cable operators to take
advantage of the benefits of DOCSIS while providing an economical
architecture for implementing triple play services to MDUs
throughout the country.
-- The Broadcom® DOCSIS EoC for EPON solution is a family of products that
includes CMC, DOCSIS 2.0 and 3.0 cable modem and STB system-on-a-chip
(SoC) solutions.
-- The solution's CMC transitions DOCSIS customer premises equipment
(CPE) from the MDU coaxial network to the EPON fiber network.
-- The solution features Broadcom's TurboQAM® technology that supports
downstream speeds up to 400 Mbps, which is a 25 percent improvement,
and upstream speeds up to 160 Mbps, which is a 33 percent
improvement over downstream and upstream speeds in support of the
DOCSIS 3.0 standard.
-- The solution also provides advanced ingress and impulse noise
mitigation technologies for S-CDMA (synchronous code division
multiple access) transmission mode. Broadcom's S-CDMA Ingress Noise
Cancellation or SINC technology allows operators to maximize use of
the reverse path bandwidth for DOCSIS EoC applications for
delivering fast, reliable and interactive services.
-- By leveraging EPON standards and customizing DOCSIS as a cable access
solution, Broadcom's complete EoC for EPON chipset and software
solutions specifically meets the low cost infrastructure requirements
for deploying triple play services to MDUs in China.
