Lantiq推出業界內首款 CAT-iq 2.0 家庭閘道器和手機系統，並發表韓國 DECT 晶片產品，再次鞏固在 DECT 和 CAT-iq 市場的領袖地位

德國 NEUBIBERG 2010年2月2日電 /美通社亞洲/ –新一代寬頻接入和家庭網路技術領域的領先企業Lantiq，善用其在 VoIP 閘道晶片領域位居第一把交椅的地位，於今日宣佈推出重要產品，補足 DECT/CAT-iq 的產品組合。2010 年DECT World & CAT-iq 大會將於阿姆斯特丹舉行，期間Lantiq將發表業界內首款點對點 CAT-iq 2.0 家庭閘道和手機系統，並推出韓國 DECT 閘道和手機晶片產品。

Lantiq CPE 事業務部資深副總兼總經理Ulrich Huewels指出：「一直以來，語音產品對 Lantiq 的成功貢獻良多，隨著 DECT 成為主要的家庭語音技術，CAT-iq 讓這語音產品更為出色的補足我們的網路連線產品組合。我們相信，透過新的 CAT-iq/DECT 解決方案，將使我們的運營商和 OEM 客戶在其目標市場更加強大，更具競爭力。」

Lantiq 的一系列 CPE 家用閘道設備均包含嵌入式 DECT/CAT-iq 功能，是業界內現有在成本上最有競爭力、同時也最靈活的解決方案。藉由加入Lantiq 的通用閘道（UGW，這是包含協定棧和應用程式的預先整合CAT-iq 的閘道軟體套件），Lantiq可協助客戶減輕系統整合的工作負擔。結合了執行手機軟體的 COSIC Plus PMB9603 ，Lantiq 出色的 CAT-iq 手機是 CAT-iq 閘道系統的理想搭配，透過預先測試的穩定性和多年的閘道和語音經驗，為客戶帶來真正的價值。

隨著 CAT-iq 的基地台轉移到家庭閘道，不論底層裡面的晶片為哪一款，不同供應商的晶片必須能互通用，且需能提供完整功能。對運營商和供應商來說，第一款具有 CAT-iq 2.0 功能的手機和家用閘道都是一個重要的里程碑；這代表 CAT-iq 系統寬頻時代正式登場。這正是寬頻的轉捩點，在這裡，寬頻有機會得到代表真正成功的必要大量用戶。

與過去的 VoIP相同，Lantiq在此一領域亦為領導者，成功管理閘道、DECT 與各式軟、硬體功能的複雜連結，構建點對點的 DSL 家庭閘道，包括 CAT-iq基地台和手機。Lantiq的技術為客戶在進入此一市場時占得先機。

利用在 CAT-iq 領域的強大地位，Lantiq也正在擴展其區域性無線電話的覆蓋範圍，將COSIC 產品引入韓國無線 VoIP 市場。作為韓國電信（Korean Telecom）的現任供應商，Lantiq現有的產品組合將納入應用於類似 CAT-iq 的閘道和手機解決方案。

Lantiq 的 CAT-iq UGW 套裝軟體將在所有閘道系列產品上執行，包括 XWAY(TM) DANUBE、xRX100、xRX200 和未來各系列產品。Lantiq 能向後相容且能因應未來變化的軟體，讓客戶更容易做出購買決策，搭配以 COSIC PLUS為基礎 的 CAT-iq 2.0 的手機，Lantiq 的客戶將能獲得完整的產品組合，包括完整的 CAT-iq 2.0 功能，再加上包括網路、設備管理和 VoIP的所有閘道功能模組，並保證 DECT 和 WLAN 能和平共存。

在2月3日、4日舉行的2010年DECT World & CAT-iq 大會上，Lantiq 將會有兩位代表親臨阿姆斯特丹發表演說。Lantiq 的CAT-iq產品行銷兼 CAT-iq 工作組主席 Daniel Hartnett 先生將主持名為「展望 CAT-iq 3.0 及超越 – 領略功能和優勢」（”Looking Forward to CAT-iq 3.0 and Beyond – Examining Features and Benefits”）的研討會，Lantiq CTO Martin Schenk博士將參加題為「運營商如何繼續從成熟市場中的 DECT 創造營收？」（”How Can Operators Continue to Generate Revenue from DECT in a Mature Market?”）的會議。欲瞭解更多相關訊息，請上網站：http://www.lantiq.com/products/digital-cordless/ 和http://www.lantiq.com/products/broadband-customer-premises-equipment/adsl/ 。

Lantiq Reaffirms its Leadership Position in the DECT and CAT-iq Markets with the Industry’s First CAT-iq 2.0 Home Gateway and Handset System and the Launch of Korean DECT Silicon Products

NEUBIBERG, Germany, Feb. 2 /PRNewswire-Asia/ — While leveraging its number one position in VoIP gateway silicon products, Lantiq, a leading company in next-generation access and home networking technologies, today announced major additions to its DECT/CAT-iq portfolio. During DECT World & CAT-iq 2010 in Amsterdam, Lantiq will launch the industry’s first end-to-end CAT-iq 2.0 home gateway and handset system as well as its Korean DECT gateway and handset silicon products.

“Historically, voice played a large part in Lantiq’s success, and with DECT evolving to be the key voice technology in the home, CAT-iq makes it an excellent complement to our access product portfolios,” said Ulrich Huewels, SVP & GM of the CPE Business Unit of Lantiq. “We are confident our new CAT-iq DECT solution will enable our carrier and OEM customers to be stronger and more competitive in their target markets.”

Lantiq’s range of CPE home gateway devices all contain embedded DECT/CAT-iq functionality, making them the industry’s most cost-competitive and flexible solutions available. By adding Lantiq’s UGW (Universal Gateway), a pre-integrated CAT-iq gateway software suite including protocol stack and application, Lantiq is helping to ease the system integration effort of its customers. Coupled with COSIC Plus PMB9603 running similar handset software, Lantiq’s premium CAT-iq handset device is the ideal counterpart to the CAT-iq gateway system bringing real value to customers in the form of pre-tested stability and many years of gateway and audio experience.

As the CAT-iq base station migrates into the home gateway, chip sets from different vendors will be required to be interoperable with each other and deliver the full feature spectrum regardless of the underlying silicon. The introduction of the first CAT-iq 2.0-capable handsets and home gateways is a major milestone for carriers and vendors alike. It signals the official introduction of wideband-capable CAT-iq systems. This is the inflexion point at which wideband has a chance to attain the necessary critical mass of users to be a true success.

As with VoIP in the past, Lantiq is leading the field by successfully managing the extremely complex marriage of gateway and DECT with all the hardware and software competence to build an end-to-end DSL home gateway including both the CAT-iq base station and handset. Lantiq’s expertise gives customers a real head start in entering this market.

Leveraging its strong position in CAT-iq, Lantiq is also expanding its regional cordless telephony coverage with the introduction of COSIC products for the Korean cordless VoIP market. As an incumbent supplier to Korean Telecom, Lantiq’s product portfolio will now include gateway and handset solutions for applications similar to CAT-iq for the Korean market.

Lantiq’s CAT-iq UGW software package will run on any product in the gateway family including XWAY(TM) DANUBE, xRX100, xRX200, and future family members. Lantiq’s backward-compatible and future-proof software will make customer purchasing decisions easier, and when coupled with a CAT-iq 2.0 handset based on COSIC PLUS, Lantiq’s customers will have a complete product offering including a full CAT-iq 2.0 feature set with all gateway functional blocks including networking, device management and VoIP, and ensure the peaceful co-existence of DECT and WLAN.

Two representatives from Lantiq will be speaking at the DECT World & CAT-iq 2010 Conference, February 3-4, in Amsterdam. Mr. Daniel Hartnett, Product Marketing CAT-iq for Lantiq and Chairman of the CAT-iq Working Group, will host a session, “Looking Forward to CAT-iq 3.0 and Beyond – Examining Features and Benefits,” and Dr. Martin Schenk, CTO of Lantiq, will participate in a panel titled, “How Can Operators Continue to Generate Revenue from DECT in a Mature Market?” For more information, please visit http://www.lantiq.com/products/digital-cordless/ and http://www.lantiq.com/products/broadband-customer-premises-equipment/adsl/ .
