The Ikanos Advantage
Ikanos believes that it can offer superior products by continuing to push existing limits in silicon, systems and software. Ikanos has developed programmable, scalable chip architectures, which form the foundation for deploying and delivering triple play services. Expertise in the creation and integration of unique digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms with advanced digital, mixed signal and analog semiconductors enables Ikanos to offer high-performance, high-density and low power VDSL2 products. Flexible network processor architecture with wire-speed packet processing capabilities enables high-performance residential gateways for distributing advanced services in the home. These industry-leading solutions thus support carriers’ deployment plans for delivering triple play services to the digital home while keeping their capital and operating expenditures low.
Ikanos’ multi-mode VDSL2 and VDSL chipsets have been field-proven in commercial deployment and remain the most popular in the industry, with more than 25 million ports shipped. Ikanos offers among the highest-performance of any widely deployed broadband solutions, including the only commercially deployed VDSL2 chipsets that can deliver up to 100/100 Mbps bandwidth over a telephone line.
Ikanos’ network processors are used in triple play gateways for the digital home, and offer high-performance, integrated VoIP and DSL, as well as the flexibility and programmability for advanced services such as security, firewall and routing, all operating at symmetric up to 100 Mbps data rates. Over nine million Fusiv network processor chipsets have been shipped to date and are being used in some of the world’s largest triple play deployments.
Ikanos is leveraging its broadband expertise in the fiber to the home (FTTH) market. By combining Ikanos’ triple play deployment experience with the gigabit passive optical networking (GPON) technology licensed from Occam Networks, Ikanos expects to accelerate the development of FTTH end user devices.
Ikanos’ products give manufacturers the ability to build equipment that leads the industry in performance, flexibility and scalability. With these products, manufacturers are able to develop solutions that are smaller, consume less power and cost less to run, service a broad array of applications and offer the flexibility to support future services.
