The BCM93212 is a DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS-1.0 and 1.1
based cable modem termination system (CMTS)
reference design which incorporates:
Provides complimentary system to the BCM93345,
BCM93350 and BCM93360 subscriber cable modem
and residential gateway reference design for product
development and testing.
•
•
64/256/512/1024 QAM downstream modulation with FEC
QPSK, 16, 32 and 64 QAM burst TDMA demodulation
•
•
•
Supports DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS 1.1 fragmentation
•
•
•
Digitally generated IF carrier that meets
DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS-1.1 and 1.1 spectral purity requirements
without a SAW filter
and concatenation for Quality of Service (QoS).
Provides a highly integrated 6 x 1 CMTS reference
design in a compact PCI form factor.
Accelerates software development by providing source
code for core software functionality and low level
diagnostics.
DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS programmable downstream transmit IF
