THE PICTURE IS CLEAR while the lines are
blurring between video, voice and data in the
home – creating interactive, integrated services
accessible from the comfort of your couch.
MOTOROLA, INC. 12
BRINGING ITHOME THE BROADBAND LINK
Our merger with General Instrument Corp. on
January 5, 2000 integrates the essential technolo-
gies we need to bring the potential of converged
video, voice and data networking into the home.
We are now a leading end-to-end solutions provider
to the broadband access market, with cable
modems, telephony home gateways, hybrid fiber
coaxial (HFC) cable network systems, and televi-
sion set-top devices that decode digital cable programming as
well as enable advanced TV services like video-on-demand,
e-mail and shopping. Motorola’s latest generation of set-top
devices uses built-in cable modems to enable interactive services
ranging from high-speed Web access to home networking. The
home of the futurecould have multiple TVs, phones and personal
computers doing high-speed Internet access simultaneously – all
connected to home hubs
from Motorola that pro-
vide the interfaces to
broadband cable systems.
