ST Unveils its DOCSIS 3.1 Chipset Solution, Opening Multi-Gigabit Era to Cable MSOs
, a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, today announced the STiD325 (codenamed Barcelona), its DOCSIS 3.1 chipset for Broadband CPE Cable Modems, embedded Media Terminal Adapters (eMTAs), and Gateways, as well as for Video Gateways when associated to set-top-box chipsets. It is being demonstrated at CableLabs Summer Conference, August 2-5, 2015 in Keystone, Colorado, USA.
DOCSIS 3.1 has been engineered by CableLabs® to unleash the multi-gigabit data era on existing Hybrid Fiber-Coax (HFC) networks through improved spectral efficiency using OFDM multi-carrier modulation combined with low-density parity-check-based Forward Error Correction.
"Prepared to be among the first commercial DOCSIS 3.1 deployments, our innovative platform architecture supports our ambition to make Barcelona a reference in the Cable industry," said Philippe Notton, Group Vice President and General Manager of STMicroelectronics' Consumer Product Division. "As a standalone for multi-gigabit cable gateways or combined with our Monaco SoC for an UltraHD media gateway, ST can offer complete solutions for fast design."
Barcelona is fully compliant with the DOCSIS 3.1 specification, including:
ST has a long history with DOCSIS technology, having contributed to the standards and participated in all Acceptance Test Plan development committees and Interoperability tests. Demonstrating the value of that effort, the Barcelona early platform operated successfully in the world's first end-to-end DOCSIS 3.1 field test conducted earlier this year.
Designed for economy and performance, Barcelona features solid technical capabilities:
Currently sampling to lead customers, Barcelona comes with pre-integrated RDK-B software, including DOCSIS and Packet-Cable stacks.
