ADVANCED NETWORK & TELECOM SYSTEMS

At last, the wait is over. SURFboard technology leaves traditional modems obsolete.

Waiting. It may be the greatest irritant in web surfing. Waiting for your modem to transfer a document. Waiting for the busy signals to stop; waiting for a connection. Waiting. With GI’s SURFboard cable modem, the waiting is over. You’re always on...always connected.

GI offers 3 models in the SURFboard cable modem family: the SB2100, SB2100i and the SB2100D. The standard SB2100 offers customer friendly, quick Internet access via a single cable. The SB2100i international modem supports universal power supplies providing GI’s plug-and-play convenience to customers across the globe. Additionally, the SB2100D dual-return modem automatically detects available return path in one-way or two-way plants and configures itself accordingly. The SB2100D is the same unit as the SB2100, but with factory added components like an analog telephone modem included inside for one-way systems.

3 models available: SB2100, SB2100i international version, and the SB2100D dual-return

High-Speed Access creating more “bandwidth per dollar” with speeds up to 100x’s faster than 28.8 telco dial-in

Telco equipment limitations eliminated with RF-return cable modem

Increase return on investment for plant upgrades

Cable operator can compete today as high-speed data service provider

DOCSIS standardization and interoperability of cable modems provide longevity of purchased headend equipment

Supports up to 32 users

STANDARDS ORIENTED

The DOCSIS based SB2100 family provides maximum performance and is compatible with desktops, laptop PCs, Macs and workstations. DOCSIS based modems insure that your equipment can function with any DOCSIS system. An ethernet card and a standard HTML browser is the only equipment required in the subscriber’s computer, making SURFboard modems platform independent. Relying on the proven SURFboard cable modem design, the SB2100 family of cable modems talk directly to the equipment at the headend, so the user is not required to do any set-up

or management—just plug-and-play. That’s easy. They ensure the interoperability of cable modems and associated networks manufactured by different suppliers. Interoperability speeds time to market by reducing risk for equipment purchasers and consumers, and creates economies of scale for broadband network operators by creating multiple product sources.

In addition, the SB2100 family supports up to 32 users, and is ideal for a small business or home network. Because all data goes through the cable, upstream and downstream speeds are incredibly fast, and no extra telephone line is required. The wait is over. GI has DOCSIS based modems... now!
