Broadcom to triple bandwidth of modems "Broadcom on Tuesday said it will pick up a parcel of communications algorithms through the acquisition of Digital Furnace, which will let it triple the upstream bandwidth of broadband cable networks. Specifically, Digital Furnace's patent-pending Propane software runs over Broadcom's cable modem chip sets and supports the company's DOCSIS. Digital Furnace said Propane uses advanced algorithms to improve efficiency and reduce latency in broadband networks, providing as much as three times greater upstream capacity for interactive services, while reducing the cost of integrating voice and data."
