BroadLight Announces Sample Availability of its BL2348 GPON Residential Gateway System-on-Chip.The BL2348 Provides the Next Level of Performance for FTTH (Fiber To The Home) See FTTP. Connected Residential Gateways SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- BroadLight, the leading supplier of GPON See PON. semiconductors and software, today announced that is has delivered first samples of its BL2348 GPON Residential Gateway (RG) System-on-Chip (SoC) solution for FTTH applications. In a separate press release, BroadLight also announced today that Askey Computer has designed the highly-integrated BL2348 SoC into its new line of high-performance CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) Communications equipment that resides on the customer's premises. CPE - Customer Premises Equipment products. BroadLight will be demonstrating the BL2348 at the NXTComm show in Las Vegas, NV from June 16-19, 2008. "Customers around the globe are incorporating the BL2348 RG SoC to deliver high-performance GPON-enabled residential gateways that connect the home network directly to the access network," said Raanan Gewirtzman, BroadLight's Chief Executive Officer. "Customers such as Askey clearly see the market moving towards a one-box RG solution and the BL2358 enables them to achieve the cost-performance required by service providers." "As a result of our powerful embedded PONRunner packet processor, our customers can use the BL2348 for high-performance RG or cost-effective ONT ONT Ontario (old acronym - ON is now frequently used) ONT Optimizing Converged Cisco Networks (cisco CCNP exam) ONT Optical Network Terminal ONT Ontario Northland Railway applications" said Didi Ivancovsky, Founder and VP Marketing for BroadLight. "Our GateMaker and PONMaker software are the keys that unlock PONRunner for the two applications." About the BL2348 The BL2348 leverages its field proven PONRunner network processor in a dual-core architecture to perform the necessary layer 2, 3 and 4 packet functions with throughputs of 1Gbps. Its embedded GPON MAC creates a cost-effective single chip solution. * High-performance dual core PONRunner architecture for 1 Gbps upstream and downstream throughput for layer 2, 3 and 4 packet processing * ITU-T See ITU. ITU-T - International Telecommunications Union G.984 compliant and interoperability proven GPON MAC * Embedded VoIP DSP (1) (Digital Signal Processor) A special-purpose CPU used for digital signal processing applications (see definition #2 below). It provides ultra-fast instruction sequences, such as shift and add, and multiply and add, which are commonly used in math-intensive for 4 concurrent ports, 3-way calling and T.38 fax * GateMaker software for gateway functions of GPON operation, firewall, security, SIP, management, QoS, NAT (Network Address Translation) An IETF standard that allows an organization to present itself to the Internet with far fewer IP addresses than there are nodes on its internal network. , etc. * PONMaker software for ONT functions of GPON operation, bridging, L2 QoS, etc. * Standard interfaces for home networking technologies such as: Gigabit and Fast Ethernet, 802.11 a/b/g/n, MoCA, HomePNA, HomePlug, USB USB in full Universal Serial Bus Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer. . * 19x19 mm PBGA-441 package, working at industrial temperature range.
