Motorola Intros CopperGold Multi-Rate ADSL Solution I'll finally be able to sleep nights! Motorola Intros CopperGold Multi-Rate ADSL Solution Equipment providers can now offer their customers more channels in less space than before thanks to the compact footprint of the next generation CopperGold Transceiver (MC145660) introduced by Motorola. This ADSL solution provides cost, power, and board space savings. Designed for use in router and set-top-box applications, as well as digital subscriber line access multiplexer (DSLAM) and line card applications for the central office (CO), the MC145660 offers a number of significant feature and performance enhancements. These include support of both the new ITU full rate (G.992.1), and G.lite (G.992.2) recommendations. The CopperGold Multi-Rate Solution offers scalability for CO suppliers, integration of the ATM transmission convergence sublayer to improve port density, and support of UTOPIA level 2 ports. The CopperGold system includes central office and router reference designs based on Motorola's popular 850/860SAR solutions. This solution pulls ahead of the ADSL pack by excelling on several levels beyond density, including performance, upgradeability, and flexibility. The CopperGold system solution can double the port density on a line card lowering the equipment costs significantly. Armed with both trellis coding and echo cancellation, the solution enables higher throughput and greater reach. tmcnet.com

I've heard more and more often that during the evenings, cable modem slows down to a crawl. I've checked out one Road Runner system during the evening, and it seemed to work fine but I was not in a heavily subscribed district. I've been getting more and more in a cash situation, or startups. The valuations of many internet related plays have gotten to levels where it causing my blood pressure to go up as well. As for ADSL startups, I made a small investment in Itex which is making a software based ADSL chip. Intel has also invested in this one. Itex is actually a subsidiary of UMC fab in Taiwan. Other than that, I've sold out of Uniphase, Broadcom, RealNetworks, and they've all doubled since. Can you believe it, I exited Harmonic Lightwaves at 15. Today it is 100+. I'm trying to decide whether to get back into Ciena. I'm currently just monkeying around with no particular focus lately. I wish I put money where my mouth was because I used to talk up a storm about Fibre Channel. I rode Ancor from 15 down to 1? and then back to 30+ where I sold off. What a ride! I hope you are doing well. Peter Piper (you electronic plumber with monkey wrench and grey beard)
