Highlights include Aware's VDSL2 intellectual property offering -- StratiPHY3
BEDFORD, Mass., June 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- At SuperComm 2005 next
week in Chicago, Aware, Inc. (Nasdaq: AWRE), a worldwide leader and innovator
of broadband intellectual property, today announced that it will showcase
several new products and technologies, which enable service providers to
maximize bandwidth for delivery of video-over-DSL, in its booth (#14046) as
well as in Telecommunications Magazine's Top 10 Hottest Technologies Pavilion
(#82015O). Highlights include the new StratiPHY3(TM) VDSL2 intellectual
property (IP) offering, a video-over-Bonded ADSL2+ demonstration using Aware's
StratiPHY-Bonded(TM) technology, a voice-over-IP (VoIP) demonstration using
Symmetrical ADSL2 Annex M DSL for business applications, and Dr. DSL(R)
advanced diagnostic software.
"Carriers looking to maximize their existing copper infrastructure have
several choices, including ADSL2+, Bonded ADSL2+, and VDSL2, to deliver
advanced services directly to the customer premises," commented Peter LeBlanc,
Aware's vice president of marketing. "At SuperComm, Aware will feature the
various access technology options available with its StratiPHY family of
products, which includes the field-proven StratiPHY2+, new StratiPHY-Bonded,
Symmetrical ADSL2+ Annex M, and StratiPHY3 for VDSL2. Attendees will also get
a first-hand look at a new, exciting demonstration of multiple channels of
high-definition video streamed over two ADSL2+ bonded pairs."
StratiPHY3: Aware will showcase its StratiPHY3 high-performance platform
specifically designed for the recently consented VDSL2 standard. StratiPHY3
is a complete physical instantiation of Aware's DSL intellectual property in
the form of a single digital chip and can be software configured to operate in
central office (CO) or customer premise equipment (CPE). It is fully
compliant with all ADSL, ADSL2/2+, VDSL and VDSL2 features and functionality,
including long-reach VDSL2 mode, and is the latest addition to the
StratiPHY(TM) line of fully functional, manufacturable silicon IP offerings
from Aware.
"DSL has become an essential and ubiquitous interface for broadband access
equipment. StratiPHY3 is ideally positioned to allow silicon providers to
combine Aware's IP with the strength and diversity of their existing silicon
product offerings to dramatically expand their market and revenue
opportunities, drastically reduce time-to-market with standard-compliant VDSL2
chips, and create entirely new market opportunities, such as triple-play, that
traditional chipset providers cannot address," said Luke Smithwick, Aware's
vice president of business development. "Building on the success of our
StratiPHY2+ CPE solution, which has shipped more than one million ADSL2+ ports
worldwide, Aware's StratiPHY3 is the industry's most advanced solution for
silicon manufacturers looking to interoperate with legacy ADSL and ADSL2/2+
while also supporting new VDSL2 deployments."
Bonded ADSL2+: StratiPHY-Bonded, a new addition to Aware's StratiPHY
product family, enables DSL equipment to electronically "bond" together ADSL2+
links using multiple copper phone lines that can then be used to dramatically
increase the bandwidth provisioned to subscribers via a single ATM data
stream. The StratiPHY-Bonded demonstration will show multiple channels of
high-definition video over two pairs of ADSL2+ lines. StratiPHY-Bonded will
also be featured in the Telecommunications Magazine's Top 10 Hottest
Technologies Pavilion at SuperComm (Booth #82015O).
Symmetrical ADSL2+ Annex M: Aware will demonstrate multiple voice-over-IP
connections over Symmetrical ADSL2+ Annex M link in its booth. Aware's
Symmetrical ADSL2+ is fully compliant with the G.992.5 ADSL2+ Annex "M" ITU
standard and can significantly increase upstream bandwidth enabling service
providers to deliver value-added business services such as carrier-class
voice-over-IP.
Dr. DSL Advanced Diagnostic Software: Another highlight of the Aware booth
is its Dr. DSL diagnostics software, including Technician Dr. DSL for outside
plant technicians and the Dr. DSL Integration Platform, which makes it easy
for vendors to integrate single- and dual-ended line testing (SELT and DELT)
diagnostics into element management systems or operations support systems.
Aware is introducing version 2.0 of its Technician Dr. DSL field test
software. New in this release is Dr. DSL's Quick Test display that provides
key physical and IP/ATM layer analysis on one page, eliminating the need for
technicians to drill down through multiple menus. Dr. DSL's SmartRx(TM)
calculates the severity of problems and highlights each in red, green or
yellow for easy analysis. Technician Dr. DSL 2.0 also adds customizable
service-level qualification that provides technicians with a simple "go / no-
go" decision for a carrier's service offerings.
Aware's technologies will be showcased next week in its booth (#14046) and
in the Telecommunications Magazine's Top 10 Hottest Technologies Pavilion
(#82015O) at SuperComm 2005, June 7 - 9, 2005 in Chicago. For more
