High-Performance FTTH Processors

Ikanos’ Fusiv® Vx170 communications processor was designed expressly for fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) deployments. The product is a system-on-chip, which integrates a control processor, DSP subsystem, security engine, and two GMII Gigabit Ethernet ports for exceptional broadband connectivity. Its powerful MIPS-based™ core  and integrated Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities make it ideal for deployments of new services such as IPTV, video on demand (VOD) and online gaming. In addition, the Vx170 employs a unique distributed architecture that incorporates accelerator processor (AP) engines for data path functions, ensuring that the maximum host CPU processing power is available for customer applications.
