Motorola Announces Motorola BSR 64000 Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS)
BSR 64000 CMTS Edge Router:
High-density, fully redundant Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS)/intelligent edge router that allows broadband operators to rapidly introduce differentiated data, voice, and multimedia services for both corporate and residential subscribers. It also offers the robust routing, flexibility, and scalability required to support the emerging generation of revenue-generating services, such as Voice over IP (VoIP) and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).
Motorola Extends Network Leadership and Innovation With Industry’s Highest Density, Lowest Power I-CMTS Solution
Motorola Integrated CMTS platform offers maximum performance efficiency at both a system and a component level
The Mobile Devices and Home business of Motorola, Inc. (NYSE:MOT – News) today announced that the long-running Motorola BSR 64000 Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS) establishes industry-density and power-efficiency leadership over comparable hardware of its kind. This provides further proof of the company’s systems expertise and engineering leadership in cable broadband solutions.
With a more than three-fold decrease in wattage required per port, the Motorola BSR 64000 becomes the most power efficient I-CMTS on the market on a per-DOCSIS-channel basis. In addition, Motorola’s fully redundant I-CMTS chassis offers greater density than any other comparable solution available in the market today. Combined, this creates the lowest I-CMTS power performance rating (kilowatt-per-hour to DOCSIS channel ratio) in the industry, and the BSR 64000 becomes the best environmental option for broadband operators and the most cost-effective solution for managing ongoing operating costs.
“Density and power performance are critical to our cable operator customers,” said Joe Cozzolino, senior vice president and general manager, Motorola Mobile Devices and Home. “With the Motorola CMTS solution, we are helping operators manage physical space constraints and lower operational costs coming from the need to power and cool racks of hardware. It’s a fully scalable solution, and it’s designed as a cost-effective means for meeting growing consumer demand for advanced broadband and evolving video over IP services.”
The Motorola BSR 64000 supports the widely-deployed TX32 Decoupled Downstream and new Motorola RX48 Decoupled Upstream modules. Through this highly scalable solution, Motorola can help cable operators achieve capital savings of as much as 60 percent over traditional upstream and downstream modules
In addition, the RX48 delivers significant energy efficiency, with a per channel power reduction of 81 percent more than previous modules. The RX48 module, offering nearly 1.5 Gigabits-per-second of capacity, will be available in the fourth quarter of this year.
Reaching this density milestone supports Motorola’s continued commitment to innovation and to providing long-term investment protection for cable network equipment. With Motorola’s systems expertise and comprehensive portfolio of video systems and broadband solutions, cable operator customers can quickly determine the most economic architecture to meet their subscribers’ evolving service requirements.
Motorola’s I-CMTS solution will be on display at the 2010 Cable Show in Los Angeles, Booth #1321.
