overall system cost for DOCSIS/ EuroDOCSIS 1.0/1.1
cable modem.
DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS 1.0/1.1 MAC is compatible
with existing Cable Modem application code, resulting
in minimum time to market.
140-MHz MIPS-32 CPU provides 66% improvement
in packet throughput over prior generations.
Advanced QAMLinkTM modulator/demodulator
provides superior performance in noisy plant
environments.
On-chip Propane supports DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS
based packet acceleration.
Integrated 10/100 Ethernet MAC/PHY with MII
eliminates the need for external Ethernet support.
Fully USB 1.1 compliant interface enables simple Plug
and Play installations.
EJTAG embedded ICE support is compatible with
existing MIPS32 development tools, improving
software development and testing.
