Motorola announce Comcast order Motorola SBV5220

[Mod]

Motorola announced that Comcast will place an order for the Motorola SBV5220, a combination modem and phone adapter, also known as an embedded Multimedia Terminal Adapter (eMTA), located in customers’ homes. This order comes after the SBV5220 successfully completed an extensive hardware and software qualification process.

The Motorola SBV5220 is equipped with an integrated Lithium-ion battery back-up, which provides up to eight hours of battery back-up in the event of a power outage in the home. Comcast expects to offer the Motorola eMTA in the second half of 2006 to Comcast Digital Voice customers nationwide.

Part of Motorola’s expansive portfolio of telephony products, the SBV5220 serves as a single device connecting customers to their digital voice and high-speed Internet services. The SBV5220 can power up to two phone lines in the home using standard RJ-11 connectors. The eMTA can connect to a computer through either a 10/100Base-T Ethernet or a USB data port.

The qualification and subsequent order expands the relationship between the two companies. Motorola now is a certified Comcast supplier of: voice-enabled modems, high-speed data modems, digital video set-tops, cable modem termination systems, video headend equipment, and conditional access technologies. Motorola also provides Comcast with program management and deployment services for the implementation of IP-enabled voice services in select Comcast markets
