SUWANEE, Ga., Sept. 7 //PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ARRIS
(Nasdaq: ARRS) today announced that its Touchstone Telephony
Gateway TG852G has been awarded DOCSIS® 3.0 certification in
CableLabs®' Wave #76.
The TG852G hardware is the newest generation ARRIS DOCSIS
3.0-certified wireless gateway with support for up to 8 bonded
downstream channels and up to 4 bonded upstream channels -- which
can deliver in excess of 320 Mbp/s and 120 Mbp/s, respectively. The
TG852G combines 2 voice ports, a 4-port Gigabyte Router and an
802.11n wireless access point into a single device capable of
supporting both home and small office applications. Using
multiprocessor technology, the TG852G achieves this high
bandwidth performance without affecting voice quality, a historical
ARRIS product standard.
"DOCSIS 3.0 certification is a key step in bringing to market an
IP Gateway EMTA that meets the stringent requirements of service
providers," said ARRIS Broadband Communications Systems SVP Derek
Elder. "Reliability and WiFi performance are key to MSOs
managing their operating expenses as they launch these new advanced
services. The TG852G is built to meet these needs with a high
power WiFi subsystem, internal antennas and power supplies and the
reliability that is expected from ARRIS products."
