CleverConnect(R) 600 Chipset Delivers Standards-Based IPTV, Video, and VoIP Over IP and ATM Networks
FREMONT, Calif., Aug. 3 -- Ikanos Communications, a leading developer of Fiber Fast(TM) broadband solutions, today announced that its CleverConnect 600 chipset has been selected by Netopia (Pink Sheets: NTPA), a market leader in broadband equipment and service delivery software, to power Netopia's VDSL gateway products. Specifically, the Ikanos chipsets will power Netopia's MiAVo 3396PC-VGx Gateway and MiAVo 3397GP-VGx Gateway for IP-based VDSL2 networks, and MiAVo 3397 GA-VGx Gateway for ATM-based VDSL2 networks.
"These products represent the first members of a comprehensive family of MiAVo gateways that are precisely targeted at the needs of our carrier partners," said Ken Haase, vice president of product management and technical services at Netopia, Inc. "We selected Ikanos as a chipset provider because Ikanos products are immediately available, field-proven VDSL solutions that support both ATM and IP deployments."
The CleverConnect 600 chipset is specifically designed to facilitate VDSL2 services in customer premises equipment. When coupled with the Ikanos Programmable Operating System (iPOS(TM)), the CleverConnect 600 can easily be tailored to specific application requirements such as those in Netopia's MiAVo gateways.
"Carriers will need a variety of gateway products to successfully deliver interactive broadband services over a broad range of customers and topologies, and our chipsets provide that flexibility," said Dean Grumlose, vice president of marketing at Ikanos. "We are pleased to continue our collaboration with Netopia as they take the lead in delivering gateway products that enable carriers to realize their next-generation service plans."
