Posted on: Friday, 29 August 2008, 15:00 CDT

Netgear, a provider of broadband networking solutions, has announced that Zon TVCabo, a subsidiary of Zon Multimedia and a Portugal-based triple-play operator, has selected its Wireless Cable Voice Gateway for its internet customer base.

According to Netgear, its Wireless Cable Voice Gateway (CVG834G) opens the door for service providers to support a variety of new services. Combining Netgear's wireless cable modem router with EuroPacketCable VoIP technology, the gateway delivers all the capabilities of a EuroDOCSIS 2.0 cable modem, 2-port voice terminal adapter, 802.11g wireless access point, firewall, router, and 4-port ethernet switch with plug-and-play USB connectivity.

With Netgear's Wireless Cable Voice Gateway customers are expected to enjoy the broadest spectrum of multimedia, including IP telephony and complete network cable access with double firewall (SPI+NAT) protection for instant high-speed web access, file sharing, multimedia conferencing, video streaming, interactive gaming, and MP3 downloading - all without the need for several external devices.

Patrick Lo, chairman and CEO of Netgear, said: "Our goal is to continue increasing the value of our services to our customers so it's essential for us to choose the right technology solutions. There are many networking companies out there. We chose Netgear because they offer the flexible, economical and advanced solutions that are ideal for our customers, and because the company enjoys a sterling reputation amongst European service providers. Netgear's willingness to customize specific features for the CVG834G was another key factor in our decision."
