RFMD Expands Broadband Product Portfolio
for Hybrid Fiber Coax (HFC)
Networks
New Products Include Amplifiers and Wide Bandwidth Passive Components
NEW
ORLEANS, Oct 21, 2010 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX News Network) -- RF
Micro Devices, Inc. (Nasdaq:RFMD), a global leader in the design and
manufacture of high-performance radio frequency components and compound
semiconductor technologies, today announced the expansion of its broadband
product portfolio targeting Hybrid Fiber Coax (HFC) transmission network
hardware, cable head end, cable hub equipment, and Multi Dwelling Unit/Multiple
Tenant Unit (MDU/MTU) equipment. The new broadband products enhance
cable operators' network performance and enable increased bandwidth
to support rapidly growing digital-centric services, such as HDTV, 3D
HDTV and "mid-split" DOCSIS(R) networking.
The use of mid-split
architectures can expand the amount of usable upstream or return path
bandwidth by more than 160 MHz. As an example, a mid-split capable HFC
network can provide cable subscribers with Internet upload data rates
that are five times faster than typical North American DOCSIS capable
cable HFC networks. This enables multiple service operators (MSOs) to
scale the data services on their existing cable transmission infrastructure,
while delivering an enhanced Internet user experience and expanded digital
services (e.g. HDTV streaming, HDTV downloads at ten times real-time
data rates) to cable subscribers.
RFMD's newest HFC RF components
are being showcased at the SCTE Cable-Tec Expo(R) in New Orleans, October
20-22, and include a broad selection of amplifiers and wide bandwidth
passive components. The amplifiers include linear amplifiers, low noise
amplifiers and return path amplifiers, and the passive components include
couplers, two-way splitters and transformers. As RFMD extends its product
and technology leadership in broadband components, leading cable network
equipment OEMs are increasingly selecting the Company's HFC RF components
for their superior performance, reduced power consumption and enhanced
user experience.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
