New in this Edition Your Guide to VDSL2 and PON Silicon The growing popularity of Internet-based video is driving demand for high-speed broadband technologies such as VDSL2 and PON (BPON, EPON, GPON). These standards also support the shift from traditional ATM-based voice and data to VoIP, video, and data using packet-based Ethernet services. Telco carriers and their competitors are deploying new technologies to support these services, although the actual broadband technology deployed varies by region. With cable providers now offering a triple-play of voice, data, and video services, traditional telephony carriers, who previously offered just voice and data, are incorporating video in order to remain competitive. Consequently, video-over-IP (Internet protocol) is sparking significant changes in the access network. "A Guide to Broadband Chips" delivers a comprehensive analysis of the major vendors offering products for this dynamic market. Vendors for PON (passive optical networks) include Broadlight, Conexant, Iamba, Freescale, Cortina, PMC-Sierra, Teknovus, and TranSwitch. Also covered are leading VDSL2 vendors Broadcom, Conexant, Infineon, TranSwitch, and Ikanos. We examine the VDSL2 and PON (BPON, EPON, GPON) silicon markets, applications, and vendors as we look at silicon for both ends of the wire: CO and CPE applications. We Sort Out the Technologies and the Key Vendors As a result of the shift to triple-play, the industry has moved quickly to establish new standards for enabling these services, making it difficult to keep current on the emerging trends and technologies.
