Positron Access Solutions has selected the MaxLinear G.hn chipset for use in its G.hn Access Multiplexers (GAM) products.
The Positron GAM solutions can deliver gigabit-class services to legacy properties over the existing coax or twisted pair wiring infrastructures.
MaxLinear says its G.hn Access baseband processors and analog front-end chipsets are fully ITU compliant and deliver physical data rates up to 2Gbps. When operating over coaxial cabling, each G.hn port can serve up to sixteen (16) subscribers by reusing the existing CATV spitters and taps already in place. Each G.hn subscriber port supports up to 1.7 Gbps with advanced dynamic bandwidth allocation for near-symmetrical Gigabit services over the existing cabling.
“Connectivity convergence is becoming increasingly important as consumers demand reliable access at Gigabit speeds,” said Will Torgerson, Vice President, Broadband Group for MaxLinear. “Service providers require solutions that enable quick and cost-effective deployment for legacy MDUs and hotels, and Positron delivers with their advanced GAM solutions.”
“Over 200 service providers rely on our GAM solutions to connect bypassed buildings and help bridge the digital divide,” Positron Access President and CTO Pierre Trudeau commented. “With the MaxLinear G.hn superior technology and Positron’s engineering excellence, we offer service providers the solution that enables end-to-end flow-through provisioning for advanced Gigabit services to the customer.”
