Broadcom Drives Gigabit Broadband with Industry’s Highest Port Density G.fast Vector Processor
15 Mai 2019 - 5:00PM
Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO) today announced the production release
of the BCM65550, a G.fast 212 MHz system-level vector processor,
enabling gigabit broadband services to be delivered to high-density
residential areas. Telecom operators can now deploy fiber to these
locations and leverage the existing installed copper lines for the
final gigabit speed connection.
Deploying fiber all the way to a customer premise is often
costly and challenging to execute, with expensive cable pulls and
complex rights of way. G.fast avoids these issues by providing
fiber-equivalent speeds over legacy copper wiring. Existing G.fast
solutions address lower density installations, but with the
BCM65550, operators can now support up to 192 lines of vectored
212MHz G.fast for high density residential sites.
The BCM65550 builds upon Broadcom’s market-proven G.fast modem
and embedded vectoring solution, the BCM65400, now supporting
production G.fast deployments across the globe. Vectoring, or
crosstalk cancellation, requires extensive compute resources, and
the BCM65550 delivers this without compromise. Crosstalk is
cancelled across all lines with extreme resolution, achieving
nearly identical performance to ideal, crosstalk-free
environments.
“As demand for gigabit speeds rises, it is crucial that
operators address this requirement by moving fibre closer to the
customer, but there can be a significant challenge here in regard
to costs and logistics especially in high-density MDU markets,”
said Robin Mersh, CEO of Broadband Forum. “Broadcom’s latest G.fast
system-level vectoring solution is an effective way for operators
to deploy and deliver gigabit broadband services for those MDU
markets. Broadcom is building on its existing G.fast portfolio,
with its chipset used in three different Broadband Forum G.fast
Certified DPU devices, highlighting the importance of
interoperability in mass-market deployments.”
“Until now, high-density G.fast deployments lacked a
no-compromise system-level vectoring solution,” said Greg Fischer,
senior vice president and general manager of the Broadband Carrier
Access Products Division at Broadcom. “The BCM65550 fills this gap
and enables the use of existing infrastructure without
modification.”
BCM65550 Key Features
- Crosstalk cancellation solutions for up to 192 twisted-pair
copper ports
- Hybrid Vectoring to support parallel operation of G.fast and
VDSL on a single device
- Proxy Vectoring to offer seamless support for new G.fast cards
introduced into a legacy VDSL system
