Are we looking at the next generation of residential cable modems? Yes, according to Texas Instruments (TI) and Jungo Software Technologies, who have released a CableHome-based silicon and software reference design allowing multiple system operators to deploy value-added services like secure broadband access, connection sharing, plug-and-play networking, and local and remote web-based management.
The reference design, available today on TI's development platform, integrates Jungo's CableHome-based OpenRG residential gateway software with TI's cable modem/wireless LAN residential gateway design. Jungo's CableHome-based solution was developed and rigorously tested on the TI platform and provides DOCSIS-based customer premise equipment (CPE) developers with a highly integrated development platform for embedded CableHome-based devices.
With the integration of Jungo's OpenRG software suite, TI and Jungo say they can further reduce product development time by providing CPE manufacturers with an off-the-shelf solution that can be easily customized.
Evaluation copies of the TI-Jungo CableHome-based embedded software solution are available today.
