BOPS Seminar Offers VoIP SOC in a Box Instruction

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 12, 2001--BOPS, Inc., a leading provider of programmable broadband DSP cores, is offering free seminars on its recently announced SOC (System On Chip) in a Box(TM) for VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) application. In concert with its partners Tality and HelloSoft, BOPS will describe the family of licensable SOC in a Box(TM) pre-packaged applications created to drastically reduce time-to-market and technical risk involved in designing chips for VoIP applications.

The seminar will focus on the:

• VoiceRay(TM) CGW set of cores for carrier-class gateway applications with up to 192 channels of G.729a or 512 channels of G.711, both with 32ms of G.165/168 echo cancellation on a single chip;
• VoiceRay SMB for small-to-medium business applications with up to 96 channels of G.729a; and
• VoiceRay SOHO for small-office, home office applications with up to 24 channels of G.729a.

Additionally, BOPS will describe how its DSP core architecture offers a multi-year roadmap that will let telecom equipment vendors and chip companies use the same platform to build VoIP systems-on-chips with thousands of channels as the next generations of network processors evolve.

The next seminar is scheduled for February 22, 2001 at the Westin Hotel in Santa Clara. For more information and to register, go to www.bops.com/sb1.
