Sclable platfrom for delivering HD content in digital home and SMB networking apps

Cortina Systems, Inc has announced the CS7542/CS7522, an ultra high performance multi-services delivery platform, designed to address the paradigm shift occurring in the market place due to the emergence of IPTV technology and the convergence of DVB, router gateways, and DVR set top boxes.

Cortina says the CS7542/CS7522 creates a new model of a single delivery platform that delivers simultaneous line rate bandwidth for secured data, voice, video, and mobile services without service degradation. Its industry leading IPSec and enterprise class QoS/routing performance makes it a solution for powerful digital home and SMB networking appliances, claims Cortina.

"The digital home is in a rapid transition period where a new single service delivery model is needed to meet the growing demands and requirements for digital content and distribution," said Dr. Stewart Wu, Vice President at Cortina Systems. "To ensure the system's longevity and to support ever increasing bandwidth, Cortina's CS7542/7522 combines hardware-accelerated, enterprise-class, networking performance and security features with a flexible and scalable architecture to enable future value-added services."

"Operators around the world are quickly transitioning from basic modems to high-end IP-based residential gateways that currently deliver voice, data, video, and mobile, but can also serve as a platform for future services," commented Jeff Heynen, Directing Analyst, Broadband Access, Infonetics. "Cortina has developed the first scalable platform that easily delivers multi-stream, HD video, both wired and wireless networking with high reliability, high security, and remote monitoring, as well as troubleshooting capabilities operators require."
