BCM6800 Family of GPON Gateway Processors
GPON Portfolio Drives Fiber-to-the-Home and Fiber-to-the-Node Solutions that Delivers Higher Bandwidth Services with Low Overall System Cost
Broadcom's Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) portfolio leverages their field proven processor, switch and physical layer (PHY) intellectual property cores, in conjunction with the industry's most widely deployed Linux® and voice over IP (VoIP) software suite, enabling Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) and Fiber-to-the-Node (FTTN) solutions. Broadcom's entry into the GPON market further completes its carrier access portfolio delivering highly integrated solutions for ADSL, VDSL and now GPON technologies.
Broadcom's GPON solutions enable high definition (HD) video, VoIP, high-speed internet (HSI), gaming, and higher bandwidth provisional services such as video-on-demand (VoD) and rapid download of IP video content. FTTH and FTTN solutions can deliver much faster broadband speeds to the end-user than is possible over the existing copper access network allowing service providers to offer advanced triple play services.
Broadcom's GPON portfolio is the world's first integration of the Multimedia over Coax Alliance (MoCA®) standard which has already received MoCA 1.1 Certification from the MoCA Certification Board. The solution in the BCM6800 portfolio integrates a MoCA® media access controller (MAC), PHY transceiver and RF tuner which enable service providers (using GPON technology) to easily and cost effectively transform a subscriber's existing coax network into a home media distribution gateway. As a result, service providers that use coax for media distribution within the home can offer whole-home digital media services that allow subscribers to securely access, store and share multiple types of digital media content including HDTV programs, video-on-demand, digital video recorder (DVR) recordings, Internet content and VoIP.
