Ethernity Networks Expands its Access Processor Offering to Include a Lower Throughput and Extremely Low Power Solution

    LOD, Israel, April 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Ethernity Networks Ltd, a fables
 semiconductor company enabling the Programmable Network(TM), expands its
 ENET3000 Family to include the ENET3100 device, a low cost low power
 solution dedicated to ADSL/VDSL IP DSLAM and ONU solution. The ENET3100
 device targets the low throughput and low power requirement of remote
 ADSL/VDSL applications, and fully complies with TR-101 specifications.
     "To support the growing speed and complexity of DSL networks and the
 trend toward using remote terminals, access processors must deliver higher
 data rates while maximizing flexibility and minimizing power dissipation"
 said Josef Byrne, senior analyst, The Linley Group, and author of A Guide
 to Access Processors
     Populating the ENET3100 using an Altera Cyclone(TM) II low-cost FPGA,
 enables Ethernity to provide deterministic throughput of 1.5 Gbps with a
 power dissipation of 1.3W which is three times less power than the closet
 Network processor competitor. By offering the ENET3100 Access Flow
 Processor solution on FPGA, we offer the access equipment designer a number
 of advantages associated with FPGA design including: customization of
 interfaces, field upgradeability, ability to incorporate other board logic
 and a path for an additional cost reduction.
     The ENET3100 is part of the ENET3000 family together with ENET3200 that
 supports up to 3Gbps and the high end ENET3500 that support up to 5Gbps
 throughput used in a stackable VDSL pizza boxes. The entire ENET3000 family
 is a pin compatible solution using a different FPGA platform and is fully
 comply with TR-101 and Metro-Ethernet-Forum delivered on ultra low cost
 FPGA device enabling advanced flexibility, programmability and field
 upgradeability. For more information on ENET solution for IP DSLAM look at

     Pricing and availability:
     ENET3100 is available and includes design kit with full software suit,
 schematics, data sheet and evaluation board. The ENET3100 is priced at
 below $30, for volume order.
