HSINCHUÂ — Leading testing and compliance consultancy TRaC Global today announces that EcoNet (HK) Limited has successfully completed and passed the test against the NICC requirements for interoperability of EcoNet's second generation VDSL2 chipset MT7510/7511. NICC is a technical forum for the UK communications sector that develops interoperability standards for public communications networks and services in the UK. In the announcement, TRaC confirmed the test programme was completed and passed in only two weeks, thanks to the flexible 24/7 testing capabilities at TRaC's flagship DSL test facility in Hull, UK.
EcoNet's VDSL2 chipset successfully passed the interoperability tests as defined in NICC ND1436 requirements. "Today's VDSL2 is designed to enable operators and carriers to gradually, flexibly and cost-efficiently upgrade existing xDSL infrastructure for higher speed internet access," said Bomin Wang, CEO of EcoNet. "We are excited to introduce our second generation VDSL2 solution MT7510/MT7511 to the market with our abundant interoperability experiences in xDSL products, excellent performance on TR114/TR100, low power and cost-competitive designs. MT7510/MT7511 VDSL2 solution has been adopted by several leading broadband equipment vendors and we think it will be in a strong position to compete with current VDSL2 solutions available in the market and effectively help operators and carriers speed up their migration plans to VDSL2 networks."
