The Fusiv® Vx183 VDSL2 reference design is offered in a compact and cost-optimized form factor. The benefits of the Fusiv® distributed offload architecture are maintained, allowing for best-in-class QoS, carrier-grade voice, and host processor power to manage value-added services and applications. Additionally, the new home gateway design will benefit from Ikanos' inSIGHT Broadband eXperience Manager (BXM), which runs on an offload processor independent of the host. inSIGHT gives consumers and carrier personnel an intuitive user interface that enables quick, local or remote resolution of noise interference and wiring problems such as improperly connected microfilters, wire cuts, or corroded wiring, minimizing the need for service calls or truck rolls, and resulting in lower carrier OpEx and an improved consumer Quality of Experience.
The GIGABYTE platform based on this design integrates the basic wired and wireless interfaces needed for entry-level gateway markets and includes options for more advanced features such as gigabit Ethernet and dual-band concurrent Wi-Fi. This enables GIGABYTE with fast time to market and the ability to support multiple carrier needs with a common platform.
"Ikanos is, once again, propelling growth in the market for residential broadband services," said Omid Tahernia, CEO of Ikanos. "Building on the breadth and maturity of our Fusiv® product family, we are uniquely able to deliver the performance and key feature set for gateways that will truly drive adoption of broadband in underserved and emerging markets. We're proud to expand our partner base with GIGABYTE in providing leading-edge broadband gateways to these markets."
Similar to all Ikanos gateway processors, the Vx183 implements mature, integrated ADSL and G.Vector-compliant VDSL2 technology that is fully interoperable with all major DSLAM equipment providers, ensuring the processor's adaptability for a wide range of gateway applications.
