Utah Scientific Chooses Mindspeed’s New SDI Equalizer with Integrated Jitter Cleaner for the New UDS Routing Switcher 3G Interconnects

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Mindspeed Technologies, Inc. (NAS: MSPD) , a leading supplier of semiconductor solutions for broadcast video infrastructure announced that Utah Scientific, a worldwide leader in routing and master control switchers, has chosen Mindspeed’s new M21564 adaptive equalizer for its UTAH-100/ Universal Distribution System (UDS) that combines the cost advantages of distribution amplifiers with the flexibility of a routing switcher in one compact package.

“We are excited to be able to use Mindspeed’s new SDI equalizer with integrated jitter cleaner device for our new routing switcher designs,” said Jeff Levie, chief technology officer of Utah Scientific. “Being the first of its kind, the new equalizer has the potential to dramatically improve equipment design while enabling a new generation of lower power, high-performance routers. As density continues to increase, technologies such as this are essential for allowing us to improve performance, while at the same time reducing power consumption. We are excited at being able to harness this technology to provide the broadcast market with new and innovative broadcast solutions.”

“Our M21564 adaptive equalizer with integrated jitter cleaner extends reach and provides significant margin that equipment vendors need for their next generation broadcast video system designs,” said Gary Shah, vice president of product marketing, high-performance analog, at Mindspeed. “We are pleased that Utah Scientific has chosen our industry leading solution.”

Mindspeed will be demonstrating the adaptive equalizer with integrated jitter cleaner at the 2013 NAB Show at its booth, #N2834 in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, April 8-11, 2013.

Mindspeed Expands Crosspoint Product Line with a Family of High Density Devices with Data Rates up to 12.5Gbps

Company’s High-Performance Analog Solutions Enable At-Speed Switching, Reducing Latency for Optical Transport and Data Center Applications

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Mindspeed Technologies, Inc. (NAS: MSPD) , a leading supplier of semiconductor solutions for network infrastructure applications, today announced the expansion of its industry-leading crosspoint portfolio with 160×160, 48×48, 36×36 and 24×24 devices that further extend the world’s broadest line of crosspoint switches.

Today’s ultra-time-sensitive applications demand very low latency that wide area networks and data centers need to address. An example is financial trading, where low latency is required for running an efficient, competitive market, and is viewed as a competitive advantage that delivers increased profits for firms which can execute transactions faster than their competitors. In such applications, latency is a frequently used metric that determines the necessary network and system architecture driving the use of crosspoints where port-based switching is required.

MindspeedĀ®’s crosspoints utilize high-performance analog process technology, enabling at-speed port switching, eliminating the need for SerDes devices and memory required for store-and-forward packet switching scheme, thus reducing latency, power consumption and cost. In addition, they feature Mindspeed’s advanced signal-integrity management technology that delivers signal transmission speeds up to 12.5 Gbps. This signal conditioning technology enables storage, server and networking systems to support the industry’s migration to higher data rates over backplanes and cabling media.

The new devices further extend the industry’s broadest offering of crosspoint switch switches spanning 2×2 to 288×288 matrix sizes. For communications applications, the switches support 10 Gigabit Ethernet, optical transport channel unit 2 (OTU2), 8G and 10G Fibre Channel, 12.5 Gbps for two times RXAUI and proprietary data rates.

“Mindspeed continues to demonstrate its leadership in high-growth markets where low-latency switching and signal integrity is an increasingly difficult challenge,” said Gary Shah, vice president of product marketing, high-performance analog (HPA) business unit, at Mindspeed. “Our crosspoint switching products are a cost effective alternative to packet switches in wide area networks and data center applications.”

Mindspeed will be showcasing these new crosspoints at the Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exposition and the National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference (OFC/NFOEC 2013), from March 19-21, 2013, in booth number 1174 at the Anaheim Convention Center.
