SUWANEE, Ga., Dec. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- ARRIS
International plc (NASDAQ: ARRS) today introduced two new,
next-generation broadband gateway devices – the NVG578 and NVG558.
Both are future-ready, offering a flexible platform for network
migration. The platforms are also powered by ARRIS's feature-rich,
industry-proven, secure and reliable firmware.
The NVG578 is a customizable Passive Optical Network
(PON) Gateway platform. It offers service providers a range of
options to capitalize on investments in ultra-high-speed broadband
applications. And, the ARRIS NVG578 platform delivers the
scalability service providers need as they evolve their networks to
meet the demands of new services and faster speeds. This includes
today's GPON speeds, as well as next-generation XGS-PON and NG-PON2
speeds of up to 10Gb/s symmetrical.
On the wireless side, this gateway delivers whole-home Gigabit
Wi-Fi®, with options to offer 802.11ac and upgrade to 802.11ax in
both dual-band and tri-band configurations. The NVG578 also makes
smart-home integration easy, thanks to optional IoT radio support.
Service providers get the connectivity, reliability and longevity
that is now expected from a hub supporting the rapidly growing
number of smart-home devices. This is important, as IDC predicts
the smart-home segment will experience a compound annual growth
rate of 19.8 percent by 2021.
The NVG558 is an advanced Fixed Wireless Broadband
Gateway that supports triple-play services, thanks to integrated
technology that can deliver 4G LTE and 3.5GHz CBRS. It also has
potential to support future 5G services.
The NVG558 and NVG578 both offer Docker® container support. For
service providers, it means they can speed time-to-market, which is
crucial as they roll out new features and services. These devices
include full support for ARRIS HomeAssure™, ARRIS's
intelligent Wi-Fi solution that extends coverage and simplifies the
end-user Wi-Fi experience.
Both platforms build on ARRIS's global leadership in PON
technology.
