ation device that combines PMC-Sierra’s multi-service 7100 Series
architecture with proven GPON ONT technology for low-cost,
high performance GPON FTTH CPE gateways. It supports an
integrated GPON subsystem, multiple 10/100/1000BaseX MACs,
dual USB 2.0 interfaces, and a DDR2 memory interface. A Linux
software development kit (SDK) that includes voice processing
and GPON management modules are included to streamline
application integration and quicken time to market.

This multifunction residential gateway processor addresses carrier
service delivery needs by simultaneously providing superior data
path performance, application processing, and robust voice
processing in a cost/performance efficient implementation. Its 600
MHz multithreaded 7100 Series core dynamically allocates
resources between voice, video, and data processing services, to
guarantee consistent, high-quality broadband networking perfor-
mance. It supports gateway designs that enable a service-grade
digital home with the gigabit boost required for IPTV.
