As a key contributor to the SMPTE, we continue to pioneer transport technologies that deliver new experiences for the video broadcast market. Networking, Storage and Telecom The demand for more bandwidth and increased speed to support the explosion of data and video traffic over the internet is driving the need for high-speed signal integrity solutions that ensure ultra-fast data transmission in various networking, storage and telecommunications applications. To ensure the networks of today and tomorrow can meet this growing demand, Gennum leverages its expertise in high-performance, integrated module ICs and components for the high speed (10G+) optical transceiver market to offer a comprehensive suite of backplane interconnect and optical transceiver ICs including laser/modulator drivers, equalizers, SerDes, receive optical sub-assemblies (ROSAs), clock and data recovery (CDRs), re-drivers, bridges, limiting amplifiers and transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs). Our high-speed and high-performance optical transceiver component technology allows for integration and bundling advantages and our expertise positions us well for the nascent 40/100G market. In addition, Gennum’s Snowbush Division delivers high-speed digital and mixed-signal IP for the computer, networking, storage and telecom markets, accelerating product development by providing co-engineering resources and high-performance platform technology. Industrial Connectivity Designers of industrial video applications are rapidly upgrading their existing analog-over-coaxial systems to full bandwidth HD video. Gennum AviiaTM (Advanced Video Interface for Industrial Applications) solutions meet this need with the industry’s first HD video-over-coax interface for industrial imaging applications. Aviia solutions expand Gennum’s leading A/V technology into new markets including video surveillance (HDcctv), machine vision, medical, digital signage, passenger infotainment, industrial imaging and video conferencing. A pioneer in this market, Gennum is a founding member of the HDcctv Alliance, an industry consortium developing HD connectivity standards for mainstream video surveillance and CCTV applications. Consumer Connectivity Today's consumer applications require increasing levels of performance and data throughput. For example, Intel's Thunderbolt™ technology is a revolutionary new high-speed computer input/output (I/O) method that offers a quantum leap in data transfer rates compared to other standards. These unprecedented speed requirements place unique demands on the transmission media. That's where Gennum's expertise in the 10Gb/s datacom space comes into play. Our many years of experience with high-speed links has given us the unique capability to rise to the challenges of Thunderbolt™ with the industry's first high-speed solutions for Thunderbolt™ applications. Intellectual Property (IP) Gennum's Snowbush IP group addresses the need for the design and delivery of silicon-proven, high-speed serial interface IP. The Snowbush IP portfolio includes complete, integrated, PHY and controller solutions for standards such as SuperSpeed USB, PCI Express® and Serial ATA (SATA), and single and multi-standard SerDes for applications with data rates from 1 Gb/s to over 10 Gb/s. Gennum's Snowbush IP group is committed to supporting customers with diverse foundry and process requirements.
