Lantiq Announces Carrier-Class Network Processing for Home GatewayMUNICH and NEUBIBERG, Germany, March 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Lantiq, a leading supplier of broadband access and home networking technologies, today introduced the industry's most integrated home gateway network processor. The new GRX350 combines unsurpassed routing performance and bi-directional packet classification to provide True Quality of Service (TrueQoS™), along with a dedicated Trusted Execution Processor (TrustWorld™) and hardware-enforced virtualization (TrueVirtualization™). This virtualization isolates concurrent applications so that networking functionality executes separately from non-networking applications, such as smart home services. One benefit of this architecture is shortened test time and time to market of new applications – without endangering the stability and integrity of the core networking software. The MIPS based GRX350 network processor integrates carrier grade edge router features into its advanced home gateway architecture, which includes multiple CPUs, Gigabit switch with integrated GPHYs, 3x3 Wi-Fi, Voice and DECT telephony. Following Lantiq's AnyWAN™ concept, the chipset effortlessly handles any kind of wide-area-network (WAN) connectivity including the new G.fast standard.
"The new Lantiq GRX350 Network Processor opens the door to previously unavailable levels of service quality in broadband home networking. With Lantiq TrueQoS, customers get the service they want at the quality they want. In addition the GRX350 will power the most secure gateways ever available for home networks, thanks to the dedicated security core. We believe these unique features will be the heart of the true digital home." The GRX350 is based on Imagination Technologies' interAptiv processor core which is among the most performance-efficient and feature-rich CPU cores in its class. GRX350 includes multiple multi-threaded MIPS CPUs. Availability Samples are available now, volume production is planned for the second half of 2015.
