Today at the NXTcomm 2008 Show, Infineon Technologies AG (FWB:IFX)
(NYSE:IFX), a leading provider of communication ICs, introduced the
VINETIC™-SVIP, a new family of devices
developed for next-generation VoIP access applications. By enhancing the
mature and field-proven technology currently offered in Infineon's low
power, high-performance VINETIC and SLIC products, the VINETIC-SVIP
family of System-on-Chip (SoC) solutions provide unsurpassed density and
scalability.
The Infineon VINETIC-SVIP includes 16-voice Codecs, 32 VoIP vocoder
channels, a line card controller and a GigE Switch to offer the highest
level of integration on the market today. This architecture allows
products based on the VINETIC-SVIP to be seamlessly scalable and
upgradable at minimal cost.
When combined with Infineon's new two-channel Smart SLIC-R, the
VINETIC-SVIP can reduce the overall bill of material for VoIP systems by
up to 40 percent and can shrink the line interface unit footprint by up
to 30 percent compared to current solutions in the market. Used in
conjunction with Infineon's leading xDSL and ISDN chip sets, the
VINETIC-SVIP provides a best-in-class VoIP solution for multiple access
technologies (POTS, ISDN, IVD).
“As VoIP gains mass market acceptance and the
transition from the traditional TDM voice network architecture to the
converged data and VoIP Next Generation Network gains momentum, system
developers are looking for more flexible, scalable, low-cost VoIP
solutions,” said Christian Wolff, Senior Vice
President and General Manager of the Wireline Access business unit at
Infineon Technologies AG. “The VINETIC-SVIP
includes a unique architecture that ensures a faster time-to-market for
our customers by minimizing the development time and offering a low-cost
bill-of-material.”
The Infineon VINETIC-SVIP family is based on the 16-channel CODEC/SLIC
architecture with slim digital interfaces which simplify circuit board
layout while optimizing component density. An on-chip DSP offers
sufficient processing power to support additional features beyond
current requirements, and as the DSP firmware runs on external memory,
future upgrades can be achieved without hardware changes.
The VINETIC-SVIP family of products include an integrated line card
controller and is the first line card CODEC/SLIC solution that fully
supports wideband voice (16 kHz sampling and wideband analog filters).
It is fully compatible with legacy POTS equipment and services, and
offers advanced integrated line testing with test head (MLT) accuracy.
These advanced integrated test and diagnostic functions offer additional
sophisticated service qualification and loop monitoring features that
allow real-time monitoring of voice quality and network stability.
