(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
TranSwitch, a provider of semiconductor solutions for the converging
voice, data and video network, announced its new Atlanta 2000
communications processor product family.

TranSwitch said that the Atlanta 2000 offers gateway routing, security
and VoIP capabilities with performance and power efficiency, enabling
customers to develop the next generation of high performance green
networking products and services for residential, small office/home
office (SOHO), and small to medium-sized business (SMB) customer
premise equipment (CPE) applications.

As service providers fulfill the surging demand for triple play
services to the home and secure, high bandwidth data connectivity for
small businesses and branch offices, they will create new demands for
performance and functionality on the CPE equipment deployed at these
locations. Atlanta 2000, a highly integrated SoC solution, was designed
specifically to meet the demands for these new services.

TranSwitch stated that the Atlanta 2000 offers wire-speed Gigabit
routing performance for small packets with scalable Voice-over-IP for
up to eight low-bit-rate voice channels. The processor's SoC design
integrates all functions of a broadband gateway, including a DSP for
voice and key exchange, security processors and a Gigabit Ethernet
switch. Due to its high level of integration, Atlanta 2000 enables CPE
manufacturers to achieve efficiency in their Bill-of-Materials (BOM),
enabling them to deliver value in this cost sensitive market segment.
For business applications, network security is a key requirement.
Atlanta 2000 supports multiple network security applications such as
IPSec and SSL accelerators.

"Atlanta 2000 is the latest and most advanced member of our
field-proven communications processor product line," said Dr. Sudhir
Chandratreya, vice president of engineering and technology at
TranSwitch. "With the Atlanta 2000 line of processors, we've developed
a best-in-class platform that supports Gigabits-per-second throughput
with the highest degree of functional integration including dual RISC
cores, built-in DSP, hardware security engines, and packet processing
accelerators - everything the market needs to drive next-generation
PON, xDSL and wireless voice-enabled broadband gateways and security
appliances. Other less innovative solutions struggle to achieve
wirespeed throughput and may degrade performance when managing multiple
voice channels and/or customer applications in parallel. Atlanta 2000's
innovative design, which incorporates state-of-the-art multi-issue,
Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) CPUs, high-speed DDR2 memory and
on-chip accelerators, maximizes packet processing throughput without
compromising performance on other fronts."
