Motorola’s SBG901 SURFboard Wireless Cable Modem Gateway combines an industry-leading cable modem, an IEEE 802.11b/g wireless access point, and an advanced firewall into one compact product. It’s the perfect networking solution for the home, home office, or small business, allowing users to create a custom network to share a single broadband connection, files, networked printers, and peripherals without wires. Cost-effective and efficient, the SBG901 enables users to maximize the potential

of their existing resources. The SBG901 also offers easily managed, enhanced network security for both wired and wireless users.

The SBG901’s new User GUI enables an easy set up and ease of use for the operator.

Designed for Service Assurance, the SBG901 is compatible with Motorola’s NBBS Device Management Platform and with Motorola’s eCare for remote access customer component troubleshooting and configuration, eliminating unnecessary truck rolls.

Integrated DOCSIS 2.0 Cable Modem

The integrated Motorola SURFboard cable modem incorporates the newest DOCSIS 2.0 silicon for improved performance over legacy DOCSIS products, design enhancements for a more environmentally friendly product, and feature evolvement to meet the changing needs of MSO and end users. The Motorola SBG901 is the ideal device for expanding an operator’s home network service offerings.

Wireless LAN Mobility

The Motorola SBG901 merges the advantages of the SURFboard cable modem with the mobility of

a wireless LAN (WLAN). It includes an integrated IEEE 802.11b/g Wi-Fi®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 SBG901’s internal antennas streamline the look and feel of the unit while eliminating the possibility of breakage.

Configurable Output Power

The SBG901 offers an array of competitive advantages by providing superior transmission power with a close to omni-directional antenna, which delivers excellent coverage for the user. The SBG901’s improved range has increased user data throughput wireless data range of greater than 21 Mbps2. The SBG901’s adjustable output power can be configured, allowing just the right amount of signal to fill the required area without interfering with homes or businesses.

Commercial-Class Security

Finally, Motorola’s SBG901 is secure. It includes an advanced firewall that helps protect the network from hackers and other outside interference while allowing desired data to pass through with ease. The firewall embedded in the gateway provides commercial-class protection through built-in denial-of-service attack prevention, stateful packet inspection, and intrusion detection. The firewall also allows VPN tunnel protocols to pass through, hiding the network from the outside world.
