BroadLight Announces Partnership with ProSyst to Deliver OSGi and Java Capabilities to Joint Customers
August 17, 2010 – SANTA CLARA, Calif. – BroadLight, the leading supplier of fiber access processors, announced today its strategic partnership with ProSyst, an OSGi pioneer. The partnership enables the companies to co-market OSGi and Java SoC solutions to joint networking and telecommunications customers.
“This strategic alliance between BroadLight and ProSyst will allow our global customer-base to benefit from the fiber-grade architecture of our fiber access processors,” Said Doron Tal, VP of Business Development and Product Management at BroadLight. “The fiber-grade architecture enables high performance processing for Java and OSGi without sacrificing the wirespeed routing and toll-grade voice performance demanded by leading service providers that are deploying profitable triple play services.”
The partnership with ProSyst combines BroadLight’s fiber access processors with ProSyst’s OSGi stack, providing significant aid to carriers by increasing their ARPU with innovative services that were previously unattainable.
ProSyst´s mBS Smart Home is a software stack containing ProSyst´s certified implementation of the latest OSGi specification R4.2 which is highly optimized for the use in commercial embedded products, e.g. in broadband equipment, modems, routers, gateways, CPEs, STBs, femtocell devices, etc.
In addition to the components specified by OSGi, mBS Smart Home includes lots of connected home specific extensions, like: Home Protocols (UPnP, ZigBee, Z-Wave, KNX, X10, and more), Home Automation Layer, Media Broadcasting and Playback (DLNA Server), Notifications (eMail, SMS), Home Gateway and Control Panel GUI, Home Applications, etc.
“Coupling the ProSyst mBS OSGi product and services with the BroadLight 3rd Generation of fiber processors provides the fastest time-to-market for emerging fiber access gateway deployments," said Daniel Schellhoss, Executive VP at ProSyst. "We are very pleased that yet another leading company like BroadLight has selected our technology."
