SUWANEE, Ga., Sept. 22, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- ARRIS
International plc (NASDAQ: ARRS) announced today that it expanded
its leading portfolio of DOCSIS 3.1 devices—including, modems,
broadband gateways, and telephony gateways—to anticipate the needs
of its increasingly diverse global customer base. It also launched
its Touchstone Development Partner Program, enabling partners to
enhance the subscriber experience on the tens of millions of
Touchstone devices shipped each year.
ARRIS has a long history of DOCSIS leadership starting from its
pioneering work supporting development of the original standard to
its present-day market-leading portfolio of DOCSIS gateways, modems
and telephony devices. ARRIS is now taking this leadership position
into the future with a growing portfolio of DOCSIS 3.1
devices.
ARRIS's comprehensive DOCSIS 3.1 portfolio now includes three
gateways to meet the needs of every gigabit service tier for
service providers large and small.
- The new ARRIS TG3442 offers gigabit broadband
speeds and delivers whole-home video over Wi-Fi at an entry-level
price point.
- The performance-tier TG3452 telephony gateway increases
performance for supporting even faster speeds and carrier-grade
video over Wi-Fi services.
- And the premium-tier TG3462 telephony gateway adds
multiple IoT radios and 8x8 Wi-Fi to deliver the fastest-possible
speeds and best connectivity for next-generation connected-home
services.
"ARRIS was a pioneer in DOCSIS technology, and we've continually
built upon that legacy. Today, we deliver one of the broadest
ranges of devices, addressing the diverse needs of service
providers worldwide. The TG3442 adds to our leading portfolio of
gateway devices, which are becoming important hubs of the connected
home. And combined with our new Touchstone Development Partner
Program, our expanded DOCSIS portfolio is enabling the next
generation of gigabit services and experiences," said Larry Robinson, President, Customer Premises
Equipment at ARRIS.
