The integrated Motorola SURFboard cable modem incorporates the latest DOCSIS 2.0 A-TDMA and S-CDMA technologies to provide up to three times greater upstream capacity than DOCSIS 1.0/1.1 systems. Packed with power, the cable modem is interoperable and backward compatible with DOCSIS 1.0 and 1.1 for a fast and timely transition - operators can deploy today without a service interruption. The Motorola SUFRFboard is flexible and allows operators to maximize their current infrastructure investments and also offer additional cost-effective services, all at the same time.

The Motorola SBG900 merges the advantages of the SURFboard cable modem with the mobility of a wireless LAN (WLAN). It includes an integrated IEEE 802.11g access point that allows users (with optional accessories) to roam around the home or small business and remain connected to the network. Now subscribers can place computers and peripherals where they’re convenient, not just where there’s an available connection.

The SBG900 offers an array of competitive advantages by providing superior transmission power with high-gain antennas. The SBG900’s adjustable output power can be configured, allowing just the right amount of signal to fill the required area without bleed-over to other homes or businesses.

Finally, Motorola’s SBG900 is secure. It includes an advanced firewall that protects the network from hackers and other outside interference while allowing desired data to pass through with ease. The firewall eliminates the need for the stand-by switch found on previous Motorola SURFboard cable modems through built-in Denial of Service attack prevention, Stateful Packet Inspection, and Intrusion Detection. The fire- wall also allows VPN tunnel protocols to pass through, hiding the network from the outside world.

AN SBG900 provides high-speed Internet access, networking, and security for a home or small office LAN.
