AMSTERDAM - DOCSIS 3.0 Modem & PacketCable(TM) 2.0 EMTA Meet Stringent Test Requirements, While U-Gateway Streamlines DVB-to-IP Migration
AMSTERDAM, May 25 /PRNewswire/ –
Ubee Interactive (formerly known as Ambit Broadband), will be showcasing its EuroDOCSIS(TM) certified DOCSIS 3.0 products at the upcoming ANGA Cable Show 2009, held in Cologne, Germany from May 26 - 28 (Booth D68). Along with these innovative broadband products, Ubee will feature the company’s “U-Gateway(TM)” convergence platform; a revolutionary product, which allows operators to support digital voice, IPTV, and DVB-C, all through a single home gateway.
“Given the comprehensive testing performed as part of the EuroDOCSIS process, achieving certification on the first round is especially gratifying, “said Morad Sbahi, Ubee’s VP of Marketing and Business Development (EMEA). “It’s demonstrates our commitment to be a market leader who stands poised to meet the rapidly-evolving needs of the marketplace.”
Ubee’s Model EDM3500 DOCSIS 3.0 data modem was officially awarded certification as part of EuroCertWave 34, completed on March 27, 2009.
The EDM3500 data modem (8 downstream channels & 4 upstream channels, or “8 x 4″ capability) can deliver up to 400 Mbps downstream, and 120 Mbps upstream. Leveraging the same 8 x 4 functionality, the Model EVM3200 2-line EMTA was also awarded certification for EuroCertWave 34. With its EuroPacketCable 2.0 support, the EVM3200 can readily enable applications developed within the IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) architecture.
To complement its DOCSIS 3.0 portfolio, Ubee will also be demonstrating its industry-leading U-Gateway. This revolutionary product allows service providers to integrate digital voice, IPTV, as well as the DVB-C transmission standard through the U-Gateway terminal.
“Our leadership in broadband and convergence platforms demonstrates the essence of Ubee,” summarized Charles Kuai, Ubee’s Chief Strategy Officer. “We have a keen vision of the future of broadband, and the ability to efficiently execute on it.”
