divx very bad things Customers in the UK could soon be enjoying rich personalized media experiences delivered through their broadband connection thanks to the recent announcement from Virgin Media that it has now rolled out the Motorola CMTS solution.

Virgin media has become the first provider in the UK capable of offering users ultra high speed broadband connections, with its current 50Mbps broadband service and the ability to offer users speed up to a massive 200Mbps in the near future.

In order to support channel bonding, DOCSIS 3.0 and other forms of next-generation cable broadband standards and to support their market leading broadband speeds Virgin Media have selected the Motorola BSR 64000 Integrated-CMTS (I-CMTS) solution with TX32 decoupled downstream modules.

Operators like Virgin Media now have the ability to evolve their triple play ultra-broadband, video services and voice using Motorola’s scalable I-CMTS platform to deploy channel bonding, which is the first deployment of this technology in the world by any company.

The general manager and senior vice president of Motorola Home & Networks Mobility EMEA & Asia Pacific said “We are delighted to be selected by Virgin Media as it rolls out DOCSIS 3.0 based services, and we look forward to working closely as we head towards the reality of the 200Mb home. Cable operators worldwide are taking steps to optimize bandwidth availability in support of ultra-broadband services and are turning to Motorola because of the deep experience in delivering proven DOCSIS 3.0 solutions into the industry.”

A recent announcement was made of the shipment of over 1000 TX32 decoupled downstream modules all over the world by Motorola, which is a leader in the provision of cable broadband technology and has a vast experience of implementing advanced networks globally.

The cost incurred on operator per downstream channel could be reduced by as much as 60 percent with the help of the TX32 decoupled downstream module from Motorola.
