SANTA CLARA, Calif. and
LONDON, April 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Marvell (NASDAQ:
MRVL) – a worldwide leader in providing complete silicon solutions
from mobile communications to storage, Internet of Things (IoT),
cloud infrastructure, digital entertainment, in-home content
delivery and Kinoma® software enabling the "Smart Life and
Smart Lifestyle" – today announced that SendTek has selected
Marvell's 88LX3142 G.hn digital baseband processor and 88LX2718
G.hn analog front end for integration into SendTek Coax and
Phoneline adapters.
"As consumer demand for 4K video applications inside the home
increases, more bandwidth is required. To meet this need,
Marvell's G.hn solution offers data rates up to 1Gbps over coaxial
cable and phoneline," said Philip
Poulidis, Vice President and General Manager, Mobile and
Internet of Things Business Units at Marvell. "The collaboration
between both companies leverages SendTek's experience with HPNA
solutions to boost the offering of best performance systems for
carriers that want to capitalize on their existing coaxial cable
and phoneline infrastructure inside the home."
"We are very proud to announce our first G.hn products
integrating Marvell's silicon," said Felix
Jeng, President of SendTek. "As service providers are
investigating innovative solutions to deploy their high speed home
networking solutions, SendTek is ready to meet customer
requirements with a portfolio of Gigabit home networking
products."
"SendTek has always been an active member of the HomePNA
Alliance and more recently of the HomeGrid Forum since the merger
of the two organizations in May
2013," added Charles Wu,
Operations Director of SendTek. "With this launch of our G.hn
products, SendTek has achieved an important milestone supporting
the smooth market migration from HPNA to G.hn installations aiming
to lead the evolution of all home wireline networks to G.hn."
SendTek has announced four new designs based on Marvell G.hn
silicon:
- G.hn Coax Gigabit Ethernet Bridge CES-832
- Wi-Fi G.hn Coax Gigabit Ethernet Bridge CES-832N
- G.hn Phoneline Gigabit Ethernet Bridge PES821
- Wi-Fi G.hn Phoneline Gigabit Ethernet Bridge PES-821N
SendTek's Coax Gigabit Ethernet Bridge CES-832 takes advantage
of G.hn coax port to establish a robust home network backbone by
using existing coaxial cables. Featuring two 10/100/1000Mbps
Gigabit Ethernet Ports and a built-in filter to avoid TV channels,
CES-832 can seamlessly connect any Ethernet interface-based devices
such as set-top boxes, camera servers and Ethernet switches,
ensuring a reliable Gigabit performance for users to enjoy 4K video
services.
G.hn Phoneline Gigabit Ethernet Bridge PES-821 is joining the
product line of SendTek for advanced home networking applications,
designed to enable service providers to upgrade their FTTH
broadband and IPTV services, with minimum investment, by utilizing
already deployed phoneline cables to deliver Gigabit content,
which are supplied from the fiber access network from the carrier's
central office (CO), to the inside of the home. SendTek's G.hn
Phoneline Gigabit Ethernet Bridge PES-82x offers spectrum options
to ensure G.hn coexistence with PSTN, HomePNA and xDSL
services.
The G.hn Wi-Fi extenders, CES-832N and PES-821N, featuring MIMO
2x2 Wi-Fi IEEE802.11n, enable carriers to deliver rock-solid Wi-Fi
services anywhere at home, and provide users with seamless access
to next-generation broadband services.
Marvell G.hn enables fast and powerful connectivity at data
rates up to 1 Gbit/s over standard home wiring, including
electrical wires, coaxial cables, twisted pair phoneline and
optical fiber, for the delivery of multimedia content to smart
homes.
