NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--Mindspeed Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:MSPD), a leading supplier of semiconductor solutions for network infrastructure applications, today announced the industry’s lowest-power clock and data recovery (CDR) capable of supporting data rates from 25 to 28 gigabits per second (Gbps). The low power dissipation is a critical requirement for enabling the 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GbE) system port densities that the industry must achieve in order to handle increasing internet traffic and escalating online video content demand.

“Increasing internet traffic and the demand for online video content is driving the need to upgrade network connections from 10Gbps to 100Gbps”

Mindspeed will be demonstrating its new CDR technology at the The Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exposition and the National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference (OFC/NFOEC 2012), from March 6-8, 2012, in booth #1761/173 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. The company will also be showcasing its broad range of physical media devices (PMDs) for equipment used to deliver fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) multi-play services via fiber-access networks.

“Increasing internet traffic and the demand for online video content is driving the need to upgrade network connections from 10Gbps to 100Gbps,” said Hasnain Bajwa, senior vice president and general manager, high-performance analog (HPA) at Mindspeed. “To enable this upgrade, CDR integrated circuits (ICs) are required that can reset the link’s jitter budget at data rates from 25Gbps to 28Gbps. These CDRs also must dissipate extremely low power in order to achieve high 100Gbps system port densities. Mindspeed®’s 28Gbps CDR dissipates the lowest power in the industry, and will be a key building block for next-generation networking systems.”

Revenue For U.S. Ethernet Services Exceeded $6 Billion In 2011 Despite Price Compression.

Ethernet Services Top $6 Billion in 2011
Written by Erin Dunne

BOSTON , MA, JANUARY 24, 2012 -- Vertical Systems Group's research on end-site Ethernet service installations confirms that the U.S. market topped $6 billion in 2011. Revenue growth was solid despite ongoing compression of average street prices. Total market revenue includes all Carrier Ethernet services and associated rate elements.

"2011 was an upbeat year for the U.S. Ethernet services market, even though competitive pricing pressures were clearly evident, particularly for mid-speed services," said Rick Malone, principal at Vertical Systems Group. "Economic uncertainty was also a challenge for Ethernet Service Providers competing in the U.S. market, but much less so than in markets throughout Europe."

The latest analysis also indicates steady base expansion for each of the three major U.S. Ethernet provider segments: Incumbent Carrier, Competitive Provider and Cable MSO. Final 2011 U.S. and Global LEADERBOARD market share rankings will be released publicly in early February. Detailed share results are available to subscribers of Vertical Systems Group's syndicated ENS research service.

NANOG North American Network Operators’ Group Welcomes You To San Diego


NANOG look's forward to welcoming you to San Diego, the host for the 54th annual meeting of the North American Network Operators’ Group (NANOG). This year marks the third time Telx has served as a host for this event, and we are excited to have that role and participate once again. They look forward to this year's conference in the vibrant Gaslamp Quarter of San Diego - considered the "hub" of the region, with more than 40 nightclubs, restaurants, live entertainment venues and upscale bars.

History has shown us NANOG is always an outstanding opportunity to meet new contacts and to catch up with colleagues in the field of network operations. Each year, our Telx team looks forward to gathering with other network operations professionals to share information, learn advanced networking techniques, and discover new network applications. With all of the new technologies transforming the network operations industry recently, this year's NANOG will certainly offer more education than ever.

NANOG 54 is quickly approaching! NANOGers will be gathering in the Westin Gaslamp Quarter in San Diego’s vibrant Gaslamp Quarter for the NANOG spring meeting. After the NANOG daily events, attendees will find one of Southern California's premier dining, shopping, and entertainment districts.

NANOG 54 takes place on February 5-8, 2012 and offers a great opportunity to freshen up your skills, learn advanced networking techniques, and discover new network applications. The NANOG Program will again feature tutorials and tracks sessions, and highlight issues relating to technology already deployed, or soon-to-be deployed, in the Internet.
Sponsors are lining up to be part of NANOG. Vendors are encouraged to work with operators to present real-world deployment experiences with vendor products and further explore interoperability issues.
