PETALUMA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE [1])--Teknovus, the leading provider of Gigabit Ethernet Passive Optical Network (G-EPON) chips for the deployment of triple play services in broadband access networks and CyberTAN, a leading Taiwanese ODM of broadband networking equipment, today announced the CyberTAN Family of Home Gateway products for FTTH, FTTBusiness and FTTMDU (Multi Dwelling Unit). CyberTAN’s Family of Home Gateways are based on Teknovus’ TK3715 EPON ONU, the lowest-power, most highly integrated 2.5/1.25 G chip for Asia’s FTTx markets.

CyberTAN developed a Family of high performance Home Gateways to meet the requirements of Asia’s FTTx markets. All CyberTAN Home Gateways encompass VOIP, NAT, and a firewall with Teknovus’ TK3715 EPON ONU for support of triple-play services including VOIP, data services, IPTV, HDTV, VOD and online gaming applications.

• For single family homes and businesses, CyberTAN developed: the EB 112-A, which operates in bridge mode and the EGV 114-A, which operates in bridge or router mode with 4 GbE/FE and optional support for WiFi or HomePlug.
• CyberTAN offers two solutions for MDUs and large enterprises. The 24G Switch provides a L2 management switch and 24 GbE with 2 module slots for greenfields - where fiber is available throughout the building. CyberTAN’s solution for combined PON/VDSL buildings, supports 16/24 FE and 16/24 VDSL2, operating as a mini-DSLAM.

“The Teknovus TK3715 chip fit our requirements for low-power, built-in QoS (Quality of Service), multiple UNIs (GbE and FE) and the option for Turbo-EPON^TM,” stated Mr. Repus Hsiung, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for CyberTAN Technology. “With Teknovus inside, we were able to rapidly design and offer a full-range of FTTx Home Gateway products.”

“Teknovus’ chips are enabling ODMs to quickly develop and sell cost-competitive Home Gateways that meet the differing requirements of Asia’s market segments,” stated Greg Caltabiano, President & CEO of Teknovus. “We are pleased to add CyberTAN to our home gateway partnership family.”
