Whether designing an analogue terminal adapter, VoIP gateway/router, VoIP-enabled 802.11b/g access point/router or broadband cordless phone, the TNETV1061 solution provides the processing power and offers the software features demanded by both service providers and consumers.
"The broadband customer premise equipment (CPE) market grew by 20% worldwide last year, in large part due to a heavier focus on and greater consumer interest in residential devices to deliver more advanced services", said Joyce Putscher, Principal Analyst, In-Stat.
"As consumers continue adopting VoIP for its cost-savings benefits, they will certainly look for additional features from their broadband gateways and TI is well-positioned to deliver these advanced products to the industry".
To aid manufacturers in bringing products to market quickly, TI's TNETV1061 solution supports a complete suite of voice and network protocols, call features and XML-based configuration and remote management.
The TNETV1061 also provides consumers with advanced security features such as Secure RTP and SIP TLS while maintaining the voice channel densities required for residential products.
This new product incorporates TI's Piqua embedded IP quality management technology, offering real-time monitoring of IP services.
PIQUA technology allows service providers to proactively assess voice quality parameters and dynamically adapt to changing network conditions to enhance the subscriber experience.
"As service providers rapidly expand their residential VoIP offerings, the TNETV1061 provides the additional processing power for emerging voice and data routing requirements while meeting the ever-present economical price pressures in retail and customer premise solutions".
said Fred Zimmerman, Executive Director, Customer Premises Solutions, at TI.
"TI is the only company that can offer a VoIP solution that will allow service providers a high-quality, scalable and reliable solution at the right price point for the consumer space".
The TNETV1061 further extends TI's leadership in supporting the growing requirements and processing power to support the move to fixed-mobile convergence in the home.
Higher rate codecs, including EVRC and GSM, are also supported by the TNETV family of VoIP processors and Telogy software, allowing operators to provide the mobility of cellular service while lowering their operational costs using VoIP technology.
The TNETV1061 solution seamlessly interfaces to TI's TNETW1350A 802.11b/g chip and pre-integrates the access point software to support WLAN-enabled VoIP products.
By including TI's G++TM technology, consumers will benefit from twice the range and 50% greater throughput over previous WLAN solutions, while minimising interference from products in the home such as microwaves, cordless phones and neighbouring wireless networks.
The TNETV1061 will be available in volume production in Q2 2006 for customers interested in TI's complete residential VoIP software and hardware solution.
