Motive is the first device management software provider to integrate directly with a chipset, enabling customers to provide out-of-the-box manageability for their products. As a result, gateway vendors are able to meet a key requirement of broadband providers who must remotely manage their devices and effectively rollout and support triple-play (voice, video and data) services.

"Managing the home network is a key component in delivering on the promise of triple-play home services by today's broadband providers," said Sanjay Castelino, Motive's vice president of Industry Marketing. "Our collaboration with Broadcom is a big step towards helping gateway vendors and broadband providers deliver these advanced services in the digital home."

"As broadband providers begin to deploy integrated gateways with greater functionality and processing power, scalability and manageability of these advanced features and services has become a necessity," said John O'Neill John O'Neill may refer to:
