The Cupria^TM 5101 chipset is the flagship product of Rim Semiconductor, delivering breakthrough performance in both reach and rate for broadband over copper. The 5101 is currently available as stand-alone chipsets in FPGA form and is based on IPSL^TM or the Internet Protocol Subscriber Line^TM emerging standard. Serving both the CO/DSLAM and CPE applications, we are currently accepting orders for the Cupria 5101 chipset.

Supporting the Cupria chipset is the Cupria^TM 5101A evaluation board. This PTMC-format line card enables rapid testing and evaluation of the Cupria 5101 chipset and includes the software and firmware required to perform testing over copper lines.

Finally, a series of these 5101A line cards can be installed into our new rm-CDS 6000
field evaluation chassis.

Supporting up to nine PTMC form-factor line cards, the rm-CDS 6000 provides multiple configurations for evaluating Cupria's performance under a range of conditions. Two 5101A line cards can be installed for copper loop testing in the laboratory - emulating the DSLAM & CPE configuration - and be fed by a choice of standard off-the-shelf backhaul line cards providing T1 / E1, GPON, HDSL2, or GigE backhaul options. Additionally, this field-hardened unit can also be deployed in CO and RT environments for rigorous testing in real-world applications.
