Siverge Networks extended its Griffin family of products with the launch of Wireless Universal Gateway chip product SivGate for next generation mobile backhauling infrastructures. The new offering consists of an ASIC and FPGA core, enabling a combination of high performance, reduced power, accelerated time to market and a lower TCO.

The Siverge said that SivGate supports any generation of mobile network, network interface and backhauling infrastructure. It’s compliant with all the required physical interfaces (Ethernet, PDH, SONET/SDH), as well as complete set of associated Layer 2 data and bundling protocols (i.e. ATM/IMA and HDLC/MLPPP) along with CES and PWE3, QoS and TM.

Using SivGate based linecards, that are designed to fit any existing or new network equipment, enables implementation and expansion of any generation of mobile network, regardless of the available network interface type or backhaul infrastructure, the company said.

According to Siverge, the new offering is based on flexible hardware architecture utilising the building blocks that include, optimised ASIC hardware implementation to process standardised protocols in layers 1 and 2, fully configurable to any mapping or framing of protocol and channels; and optimised FPGA hardware implementation for all Circuit Emulation flavours, legacy protocol pseudo-wire and packet processing offering different flavours and customisation for customers.

Siverge is offering both a low cost low speed version of the SivGate and

a high performance version for the network side for high speed multi-service

operation.

Moshe De-Leon, president and chief technology officer of Siverge Networks, said: By enabling our customers with a powerful, high performance solution that exceeds their requirements, we are in turn helping to evolve the network infrastructure which will pave the way for a new set of high-margin services and applications.

“Our advanced wireless universal gateway solution is designed with the customers’ requirements in mind and addresses their need for a comprehensive high-performance solution that delivers increased capacity at a lower cost.
