Actiontec Debuts Powerful VDSL2 Modem Featuring Dual-Core 32-bit Processor, Built-in 802.11n Wireless and Plenty of Memory to Easily Manage the Entire Digital Home
(Market Wire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) SUNNYVALE, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 06/30/09 --
Actiontec
Electronics today announced the Q1000 Wireless N VDSL Modem Router, the
latest addition to its line of triple play VDSL2/ADSL2+ Universal DSL
Wireless Gateways. Sporting a Wireless N radio, Gigabit Ethernet switch,
and capacious amounts of memory, the Q1000 represents one of the most
powerful DSL routers ever built.
While most modems on the market provide only a single 32-bit processor and
limited memory, the Q1000 boasts a powerful wireless N radio, gigabit
Ethernet, a dual core 32-bit processor, 32 MB Flash, and 64 MB SDRAM. This
high performance platform means the router can simultaneously
support a wide range of demanding multimedia applications, including HDTV, Voice over WiFi,
media sharing, and online gaming.
"As consumers continue to drive the demand for a richer online experience,
carriers are continually looking for ways to deliver faster speeds and more
entertainment and communication options," said Brian Henrichs, vice
president of business development at Actiontec Electronics. "The Q1000
offers a new standard in home router performance -- and ensures that
bandwidth-hungry, multi-tasking consumers have all the processing power
they need today and tomorrow."
The powerful home gateway also features Gigabit
Ethernet on the LAN or home networking side. With support for blazing
speeds up to 1,000 Mbps, the Q1000 ensures users can stream HD video
content, simultaneously download or upload large data files and more
without having to worry about network slowdowns, hiccups or a loss in
voice, video or data quality.
Along with Gigabit Ethernet, the Q1000 also supports 802.11n
wireless, and is backward compatible with older wireless protocols. The
router's MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) smart antenna technology
improves home coverage and minimizes those despised dead spots that plague
other WiFi products.
The router also includes a fully customizable firewall with Stateful Packet
Inspection, denial of service protection, content filtering, intrusion
detection, plus WPA/WPA2 and WEP wireless encryption to keep home networks
secure.
While the Q1000 supports the latest VDSL2
access technology, it also features an "Auto Fallback to ADSL 2+/2"
function that lets carriers deploy the same device on older networks. Cost
and complexity are significantly reduced as there's only one SKU to manage
and less inventory to handle. In addition, the router is equipped with
TR-069 remote management to minimize costly truck rolls and provide
superior customer service.
