SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Allied Telesis (formerly Allied Telesyn), a global provider of secure Ethernet/IP access solutions and an industry leader in the deployment of IP Triple Play networks over fiber and copper infrastructure, today announced the availability of an end-to-end VDSL2 solution with the award-winning iMAP integrated Multiservice Access Platform and iMG intelligent Multiservice Gateway. Using VDSL2 technology, service providers can generate more revenue from their existing copper plant. Fiber overbuild is no longer required for the distribution of HDTV and other higher bandwidth services – these high revenue services can be supported on existing plant, and easily distributed in multi-dwelling units.

“With the introduction of end-to-end VDSL2 capability using the iMAP and iMG families, we are yet again demonstrating ultimate flexibility and IP Triple Play access leadership,” said Philip Yim, executive vice president of global marketing & product development for Allied Telesis. “No other supplier can deliver a carrier-grade IP access solution with this level of media transparency. It’s a very clear market differentiator and one that is separating us from the rest of the market.”

In a separate release

SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Allied Telesis (formerly Allied Telesyn), a global provider of secure Ethernet/IP access solutions and an industry leader in the deployment of IP Triple Play networks over fiber and copper infrastructure, today announced three new iMG intelligent Multiservice Gateway offerings: the iMG646MOD, iMG613RF and iMG643W. The new iMG family works in conjunction with Allied Telesis’ award winning iMAP integrated Multiservice Access Platform to create the industry’s most versatile end-to-end IP Triple Play solution.

iMG646MOD – A modular gateway supporting any service over any medium.

The iMG646MOD provides support for ADSL2+, VDSL2, Active Ethernet (100Mb and 1Gb) and GEPON in a service provider accessible module. With ultimate WAN flexibility the new modular iMG allows service providers to deliver carrier class IP Triple Play services over any network.

The iMG646MOD offers multiple ports for set top boxes and optional support for distribution of IP traffic over existing home wiring to reduce IPTV deployment time and cost, with HPNAv3 and future MOCA support. Advanced home networking is supported over 6 data ports with switching and routing functionality, and security ensured through firewall and NAT. By integrating switching and routing functionality, the iMG646MOD eliminates the need for an additional box at the customer premise. Designed with OSP in mind, the iMG646MOD is temperature hardened, and accommodates fiber cable termination.

iMG613RF – Provides IP Triple Play and RF video in a single unit.

The iMG613RF, a hybrid RF/IP Video Gateway, provides a simple and cost-effective solution for migrating from existing analog cable to IPTV. With IP Triple Play and RF Video in a single unit, the iMG613RF has full support for advanced video services, including layer 3 routing capability, IGMP snooping and proxy, and multiple ports for STB support. The iMG613RF also converts standard HFC RF Video from an optical to electrical signal, for distribution in the home coaxial cable plant.

iMG643W – Enables the distribution of wireless IP services over 802.11bg.

Used at the subscriber site, the iMG643W takes networks from IP Triple Play to IP Quad Play by integrating the distribution of wireless IP services over 802.11bg. New revenue generating IP services can now be delivered within the home environment with no cabling required.

“The new capabilities of the iMG family provide a gateway portfolio unmatched by any other offering in the industry,” said Philip Yim, executive vice president of global marketing & product development for Allied Telesis. “The Allied Telesis mission is to ensure that our service provider customers have the best technology and the necessary flexibility required to deliver premium services at an affordable price to their subscribers.”
