Broadband solutions maker Terayon (Nasdaq: TERN) announced today that two models of its TJ 715 cable modem family were certified by the CableLabs research and development consortium as meeting DOCSIS 2.0 (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification).
DOCSIS 2.0 is the latest version of the specification for cable data systems.
Terayon's TJ 715 cable modem family currently consists of two models: the current version, which was certified to DOCSIS 2.0; and a new model based on the company's more advanced 6130 chip and which was also DOCSIS 2.0 certified.
Terayon CEO Zaki Rakib said, "Achieving DOCSIS 2.0 certification for our TJ 715 cable modems is another win for Terayon. These modems complement our DOCSIS 2.0 qualified BW 3500 CMTS (Cable Modem Termination System) and allow Terayon to continue offering a complete and end-to-end DOCSIS 2.0 cable data system."
"DOCSIS 2.0 certification for our newest TJ 715 is particularly significant for Terayon as it validates the engineering effort that went into our 6130 processor, which is significantly more advanced and integrated than its predecessors," Rakib added.
Terayon shares closed on Nasdaq on Friday at $1.667.
