The Perfect Chipset for Home Entertainment Networking
CopperGate Communications' CG3210H Chipset is the ideal solution for multimedia whole-home networking products; enabling Triple Play Services of HPTV, VoIP and high-speed Internet data over existing phone wires and coax cables. Based on the ITU G.9954 standard (HomePNA 3.1 specification), the CG3210H chipset doubles the throughput of the industry proven CG3110H chipset, a leading choice for service provider installing IPTV Solutions. The CG3210H chipset enables significantly higher data rates over existing home network wires.
Featuring guaranteed QoS and Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA™), the CG3210H provides efficient utilization of network resources for multiple simultaneous streams of real-time standard and high definition IP video, audio and voice in the presence of best effort data transfers. CopperGate's solution is the only Home Entertainment Networks solution that coexists with VDSL on the same phone wires. The CG3210H offers a variety of interface options which make this chipset ideal for low-cost, high-performance networking solutions in IP Set-Top Boxes, DVRs, Broadband and Media Gateways, Ethernet Bridges and VoIP Adapters. CopperGate's chipset is supported by Evaluation Boards and a comprehensive set of Development Kits.
