Analog Devices Introduces its Seventh Generation ADSL Silicon

Analog Devices expanded its broadband access portfolio with four new products for ADSL central office (CO) and customer premises equipment (CPE) applications. The new silicon includes a highly-integrated chipset for ADSL bridges, routers and WLAN access points; a 16-point central office solution supporting the emerging high-speed ADSL2+ standard; a chipset for cost-sensitive routers; and an analog front end (AFE) component of ADI's CPE chipsets The new 16-port central office chipset represents Analog Devices seventh generation of DSL silicon. The chip is fully ADSL2+ (ITU standard G.992.5) compliant, thus supporting data rates of up to 24 Mbps. ADSL2+ is backward-compatible with existing ADSL technology.
