Metalink Broadband Access
About us | Metalink is a recognized leader, not only in the broadband access market, but also within standards bodies governing DSL implementation and deployment worldwide, such as ETSI, ANSI, ITU, FS-VDSL and IEEE. The Company's top-level algorithmic and mixed signal designers, along with its leadership in standards bodies worldwide, are establishing Metalink as a leader in the field of broadband access. Metalink continues to implement its strategic growth plan of focusing on high growth video deployment and voice over Digital Subscriber Line(DSL)applications and capitalizing on it's industry leading SHDSL and VDSL technologies. Solutions for Next-Generation Broadband Access Metalink has proven to be a leader in the DSL industry, bringing the first-in-world standards-compliant QAM-VDSL solutions to the market. One of the major challenges for cost-effective completion of an end-to-end 'All-IP' Ethernet based access network is to enable true broadband Ethernet speeds while maximizing coverage over the existing infrastructure. VDSL, the most advanced and affordable xDSL technology, maximizes the use of available copper capacity and provides scalable symmetric and asymmetric 'Ethernet grade' rates under all deployment scenarios in private and public networks. Using the QAM line-code, Metalink's VDSL technology is as mature and cost-effective as legacy access technologies and ready for mass deployment. Metalink's extended reach, flexible and scalable VDSL solutions power true broadband access at Ethernet speeds while maximizing coverage over the existing copper infrastructure, supporting both Ethernet and ATM applications. In addition, Metalink addresses the International market with E1/T1 services over Symmetric DSL. The company's products allow metropolitan optical networks end-to-end connections from the central office all the way to the network termination unit, or customer premise equipment, over copper wires. Metalink's HDSL2, HDSL4 and SHDSL solutions allow service providers to reduce the deployment costs for T1/E1 systems by eliminating the need for costly repeaters used in older HDSL and T1/E1 systems. Metalink's sophisticated, innovative spectrum of products, offer cost-effective solutions for the fast-moving, dynamic and challenging telecommunications market worldwide. World-Class Communications IC Organization Metalink has taken advantage of the tremendous education, infrastructure base and supportive R&D environment in Israel to establish a world-class algorithmic and digital signal processing(DSP)design team. In addition, in 1999 we set up a best-in-class mixed-signal design team in Northern California. Our strong software development and application teams are focused on accelerating our customers' time-to-market. Metalink's programmable solution approach is fundamental to enable our customers' customers - network operators, the competitive edge to add value(andrevenue) to their service offerings. |
