Tioga Delivers Highly-Integrated SHDSL Solution.Business/Technology Editors SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 12, 2001 Tioga Technologies (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : TIGA (Texas Instruments Graphics Architecture) An earlier graphics standard from TI that provided a resolution-independent interface between the application and graphics processor. See 34010. ), a leading provider of broadband and Digital Subscriber Line See DSL. (communications, protocol) Digital Subscriber Line - (DSL, or Digital Subscriber Loop, xDSL - see below) A family of digital telecommunications protocols designed to allow high speed data communication over the existing copper telephone lines between end-users and (DSL) IC solutions, announced today its PeakSHDSL Octal Central Office SHDSL SHDSL Single-Line High-bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line SHDSL Symmetrical High-Density Digital Subscriber Line SHDSL Symmetrical High Bitrate Digital Subscriber Line (Ericsson) SHDSL Symmetrical Highspeed Digital Subscriber Loop chipset. This SHDSL solution from Tioga enables DSL central office (CO) equipment vendors to achieve both maximum port density to reduce the amount of space needed and low power, while maintaining leadership in SHDSL performance and reach. This new level of higher density and lower power solution enables DSLAM (DSL Access Multiplexor) A central office (CO) device for ADSL service that intermixes voice traffic and DSL traffic onto a customer's DSL line. It also separates incoming phone and data signals and directs them onto the appropriate carrier's network. See DSL. , DLC (Digital Loop Carrier In telephone communications, a technology that increases the number of channels in the local loop by converting analog signals to digital and multiplexing them back to the end office. ) and MTU (Multiple Tenant Unit) vendors to deliver to service providers equipment that meets the demand for large-scale and fast-growth DSL deployment. In turn, the service providers can address the high demand for higher bandwidth from millions of SOHO Soho (sōhō`, sə–), district of Westminster, London, England, known for its continental restaurants. Once a fashionable quarter, it became popular among writers and artists in the 19th cent. and SMB users worldwide. "SHDSL is the industry's preferred business-class DSL service because it offers symmetrical data rates high enough to support capabilities such as multi-channel voice, Web hosting, video teleconferencing and e-mail servers. " said Douglas Goodyear, Tioga's President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. . "With the launch of Peak SHDSL, the symmetric DSL market takes an important step forward in performance while creating a streamlined support and migration path for existing ADSL See DSL. ADSL - Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line customers." The PeakSHDSL CO chip-set is designed to meet all SHDSL standards, including ITU-T See ITU. ITU-T - International Telecommunications Union G.991.2(G.SHDSL A DSL technology from the ITU (G.991.2) that provides symmetric transmission from 192 Kbps to 2.3 Mbps using a single copper pair, depending on distance from the central office (from 20,000 ft. to 6,500 ft.). With two wire pairs, 384 Kbps to 4.6 Mbps can be achieved. G. ), ITU G.994.1 (G.HS), ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute, Sophia Antipolis technical park, Nice, France, www.etsi.org) A non-profit membership organization founded in 1988, dedicated to standardizing information and communication technologies (ICT) throughout Europe. RE/TM-06011 (SDSL) HDSL2, HDSL4, and HDSL... It enables DSL system vendors to develop a global solution compliant with worldwide standards and regional specific service requirements. Tioga's Highly Integrated SHDSL Solution The architecture of the TS1080 is based on Tioga's programmable DSP cores. This allows support of special features, which may be required by future standards or by specific customers, using software revisions only. These features include a fully-featured flexible framer, an internal flexible frequency synthesizer, support for all G.991.2 clock modes, including synchronous and plesiochronous modes, and full operation of NTR. The total power consumption of the TS1080 is 140mw while total port power consumption, including line drivers, is below 600mW per port for symmetrical masks at all rates up to 2.3Mbps, and below 800mW for all asymmetrical masks including HDSL2. Other unique features of Tioga's PeakSHDSL are: extremely long reach, small board area, Utopia, PCM and PCM highway interfaces, line bonding and 4-wire operation, pin-to-pin and SW compatibility with Tioga PeakADSL. Tioga's PeakSHDSL Octal CO chipset includes the TS1080, an Octal ADSL transceiver providing all framing and DSP functionality; and the TS2040, a quad Analog Front End (AFE). Combined with line driving circuitry, it provides a complete solution for eight or more full-rate SHDSL lines. The TS1080 is planned to be available in July while the TS2040 is available today. About SHDSL Symmetric High-bit rate Digital Subscriber Line (SHDSL, SDSL and HDSL) solutions provide symmetrical communication at multiple bit-rates. These solutions enable applications such as business high-speed Internet access, VPN, branch offices interconnection and combined high-speed data and multiple voice channels as well as transport T1/E1 replacement and pair gain applications.
