BEIJING, March 29, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- China Content Broadcast Network (CCBN), Booth No. 2604 -- Actiontec Electronics, Inc., continues its innovation in the broadband access convergence space with the introduction of its client side CPE, a coax network adapter, based on the Entropic Communications' c.LINK(tm) EN3230 Broadband Access chip.
This new adapter provides subscribers with more than 100Mbps service over coaxial cable, the new performance benchmark for delivering high bandwidth applications such as multiple streams of high definition (HD) video and IPTV, as well as voice and data at compelling price points.
"The combination of the performance and cost point makes c.LINK key to our broadband access business growth in Asia," said Brian Henrichs, Vice President of Business Development, Telco Division. "Entropic has provided us a complete solution in this fast emerging market enabling us to rapidly deploy and meet the needs of local network operators."
The EN3230 Broadband Access client chip is designed for low-cost, easy-to-install, CPEs using the existing coaxial cable infrastructure found in multi-dwelling units (MDUs) and single family housing. With an EN3230-based CPE, service providers can offer 100Mbps data and video access services to single family homes and MDUs with no new wires or changes to the existing wiring, at a lower cost bill of materials (BOM) and deployment cost.
