- Puma 8 provides cost-effective cable Ultra DOCSIS 3.1
solution.
- Performance-optimized ultra-high split single-chip PGA
highlights MaxLinear’s comprehensive product portfolio encompassing
every critical part of cable data access and gateway
technology.
MaxLinear, Inc. (Nasdaq: MXL) today announced that Puma 8, its
ESD/FDD DOCSIS 4.0 cable modem and gateway platform, delivers
greater than 10Gbps data throughput speeds as an Ultra DOCSIS 3.1
solution. With speeds close to PON fiber, Multi Service Operators
(MSOs) now have a DOCSIS upgrade solution that requires minimal
capital expenditure to achieve 10Gbps service over cable versus the
cost of a full-scale DOCSIS 4.0 infrastructure overhaul. For
service providers who want to upgrade to DOCSIS 4.0 immediately,
Puma 8 can be coupled with MaxLinear’s single-chip, low-power
DOCSIS 4.0 Ultra High Split (UHS) Upstream Programmable Gain
Amplifier (PGA) that together can achieve upstream speeds of up to
7Gbps based on 6 x OFDMA channels in the 108MHz to 684MHz band and
1 x OFDMA channel on the legacy 5MHz to 85MHz band.

Designed to handle next-generation applications requiring ever
more data speeds - such as gaming, digital health, and 8k streaming
– the Puma 8 single-chip DOCSIS 4.0 solution meets the needs of
MSOs who continually grapple with the decision of when and how best
to upgrade broadband service for their customers. As MSOs balance
customer expectations of faster and more reliable service versus
revenue growth and operational efficiency, Puma 8 offers an
extremely cost-effective solution of a seamless upgrade path to
Ultra DOCSIS 3.1 and DOCSIS 4.0. As more costly broadband PON
technologies become standard for some networks, Puma 8 provides
MSOs with the financial flexibility to scale their cable-based
versus PON-based data services strategically.
"MaxLinear’s new Puma 8 platform marks a significant leap
forward in DOCSIS 4.0 technology," said Will Torgerson, VP/GM
Broadband Group. "Our platform is designed for exceptional
performance and energy efficiency, achieving over 10Gbps data
speeds that rival fiber. This positions our MSO partners to deliver
ultra-fast broadband with smart capital expenditure, elevating the
home connectivity experience for consumers today and into the
future."
Puma 8 presents significant cost advantage to MSOs, who are
aiming to immediately provide customers with 10Gbps service via an
Ultra DOCSIS 3.1 solution, with a cost-effective upgrade pathway to
DOCSIS 4.0 in the future. By leveraging Puma 8 as an incremental
upgrade to Ultra DOCSIS 3.1 within their existing traditional
Hybrid Fiber-Coaxial (HFC) network, operators can significantly
enhance their network data-speed performance without incurring the
substantial costs associated with full-scale infrastructure
overhauls required for full-duplex DOCSIS 4.0. This cost-efficient
approach allows MSOs to tap into the benefits of advanced DOCSIS
4.0 technology, achieving enhanced data speeds and network
capabilities, while strategically managing capital expenditure.
This CAPEX control provides yet another layer of flexibility,
minimizing and/or deferring the need for costly extensive network
infrastructure modifications while navigating the evolving,
multi-faceted landscape of providing high-speed broadband data
services.
Ultra-High Split Upstream PGA
In addition to being optimized for cost, the Puma 8 platform is
built for optimal performance. MaxLinear’s single-chip low-power
DOCSIS 4.0 Ultra High Split (UHS) Upstream Programmable Gain
Amplifier (PGA) was developed specifically to work and interface
seamlessly with Puma 8, providing an unmatched end-to-end solution.
Its low-power design, with minimal external discrete passive
components, contributes to energy efficiency, small board footprint
and reduced operational costs for OEMs and operators.
The DOCSIS 4.0 UHS PGA's ultra-high split upstream capability is
pivotal for optimizing network performance as it enables a more
efficient allocation of upstream frequency spectrum, facilitating
increased upstream data capacity. This results in improved network
responsiveness, reduced latency, and enhanced overall user
experience, critical factors in meeting the growing demand for
high-speed, low-latency connectivity.
Furthermore, the frequency tunable bandwidth of the PGA provides
flexibility for network operators to adapt and optimize performance
according to specific network bandwidth requirements. This
adaptability ensures scalability and future-proofing, allowing
operators to evolve and grow their network capacity in tandem with
technological advancements without requiring extensive modem or
gateway replacements.
MaxLinear's innovative Puma 8 based DOCSIS4.0 modem and gateway
platforms, including its ultra-high split PGA, form the backbone
MaxLinear’s optimized DOCSIS 4.0 broadband home access and
connectivity ecosystem.
MaxLinear Puma 8 and PGA demos will be shown at CES 2024 in Las
Vegas.
