SUWANEE, Ga., Sept. 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- ARRIS Group
Inc. (NASDAQ: ARRS) today announced the deployment of its TG1682
DOCSIS 3.0 gateway at Comcast. The ARRIS TG1682 is part of
Comcast's new XB3 service that will enable gigabit wireless speeds,
IP video technology and integrated home automation and security
capabilities to subscribers. The two companies began collaboration
on this initiative late last year.
The ARRIS TG1682 is an advanced DOCSIS 3.0 residential voice
gateway that combines 24DS channel bonding, two analog voice
lines, a 4-port Gigabit Router, MoCA 2.0 for superior in home
coverage, and a Dual Band 802.11ac wireless access point into a
single integrated device. The TG1682 can achieve exceptional
high-bandwidth performance and can serve as the hub of the
subscriber's network, connecting all IP-capable devices (Internet,
Data, Voice and Video) throughout the customer's home. The
open-source software on the TG1682 is expected to serve as a key
foundation for a new version of the RDK (Reference Design Kit) for
broadband devices that is currently under development for the wider
RDK community.
"We are committed to providing our customers with the best,
fastest in-home wifi experience, and the XB3 is a powerful tool for
delivering on that commitment," said Ken
Klaer, Senior Vice President of Premises Technologies at
Comcast. "ARRIS has been a valuable partner in our effort to
continually evolve the high-speed data experience for our
customers."
"We are pleased to work with Comcast to launch the TG1682 as
part of their XB3 service," said Larry
Robinson, President, Customer Premises Equipment at ARRIS.
"We are committed to continue introducing additional advanced
broadband devices based on this new software ecosystem to make our
customers more competitive. We will continue to invest in these
solutions during this very exciting and dynamic time in the
industry."
ARRIS's Chief Technology Officer of Customer Premises Equipment
Charles Cheevers will deliver a related presentation at the
European RDK Summit at IBC. IBC attendees are invited to visit the
ARRIS stand 1.D31 for more information.
