Stanford/MIT V-Lab present
Will Asia be the Next Broadband Access Battleground?
Ikanos Communications is a fabless semiconductor company that
develops and markets programmable broadband access chipsets
that are used in Ethernet in the first mile and
very-high-bit-rate DSL-discrete multi-tone equipment.
Ikanos offers solutions for both the carrier side and customer
premise equipment. Equipment vendors can use Ikanos'
chipsets to develop telecommunications equipment that delivers
scalable, high-throughput broadband speeds from 64 Kbps to
100 Mbps over existing copper wire.
Given the Asian growth trends we see for telecom companies
like Ikanos, will this be the next broadband access technology
battleground? What applications will drive future broadband
deployments, usage, and business models? What can startup
companies learn to effectively compete in Asia?
