Motorola Shows Latest Cable Modem Designs

Motorola unveiled two new cable modems that integrate capabilities such as VoIP telephony or wireless home networking.



The Motorola SBV5120 combines a multimedia telephony adapter with a PacketCable-compliant cable modem which was recently certified for DOCSIS 2.0 and 1.1, and EUR-DOCSIS 2.0. The device allows consumers to use their existing home telephone wiring to power two lines of voice service, and supports all class features.



The Motorola SBG940 cable modem combines an integrated 802.11g Wireless Access Point , an DOCSIS 2.0-certified / EUR-DOCSIS 2.0-certified cable modem, a four port 10/100 Ethernet switch and a firewall.

  • Motorola has shipped over 17 million cable modems to date.
