HomePortal 3000 Series Intelligent Gateways

Powerful Wireless Technology
HyperG wireless technology virtually
eliminates wireless “cold spots” in the
home. HomePortal intelligent gateways
increase wireless bandwidth by using
400 mW transmitters with additional
receiver sensitivity. (Most comparable
wireless access points provide less than
100 mW.)*
The 2Wire triple wireless antenna design
extends wireless reach and boosts
performance compared to other
802.11b/g wireless designs which have
only two antennas. The extra antenna,
used only for transmitting packets,
prevents the power loss associated with
switching antenna modes back and forth
from transmit to receive. Antenna
placement is optimized with a dedicated
set of receive-only antennas, resulting in
greater access point sensitivity and
increased wireless throughput and range.
Better range throughout the home means
better delivery of enhanced services.
High-Speed Coaxial
Networking
Along with traditional network interface
options like Ethernet, USB (select
models), and HyperG wireless, select
HomePortal 3000 series intelligent
gateways support high-speed coaxial
networking, or HomePNA 3.1 over coax.
HomePNA 3.1 enables the delivery of
high-bandwidth triple play services, such
as HD video, throughout the home over
existing coaxial cables.
Integrated Voice over IP
2Wire gateways provide built-in VoIP
port capabilities to support today’s
wireline voice needs, and are also the
convergence point for service providers
and their mobility partners to offer
wireline-wireless service convergence.
VoIP capabilities include full SIP ALG
and back-to-back SIP user agent
(proxy) to support additional ATA
adapters, GSM-UMA (3GPP), and IMS
(SCCAN Forum) Voice over Wi-Fi
mobile phone support.
Professional Grade Firewall
With its fully configurable and manage-
able firewall, the HomePortal intelligent
gateway provides firewall protection for
up to 253 networked devices. The
firewall actively detects and defends
against common Internet threats (such
as distributed denial of service attacks)
using stateful packet inspection (SPI). It is
also subscriber-friendly, enabling simple
configuration setup for common in-home
applications such as online gaming.
Carrier-Class QoS, Performance,
and Manageability
Increasing competitive offerings by
introducing IP-enabled triple play
services through FTTN and FTTP
networks also increases the need for a
high-performance managed customer
premises platform. The 2Wire software-
enabled HomePortal gateway platform
delivers the processing, voice DSP, and
software programming flexibility
necessary to manage future applications.
High-performance DSL, SPI firewall,
differentiated QoS, and VoIP processing
functions are manageable virtually
without limitation. Fully TR-069-
compliant, HomePortal 3000 series
intelligent gateways are manageable
through any TR-069-compliant auto-
configuration server. When combined
with the full management and software-
upgrade capabilities of the 2Wire CMS
remote management system, the
HomePortal gateway is today's triple
play, future-proof platform.**
Remote Management
HomePortal 3000 series intelligent
gateways are manageable through any
TR-069-compliant auto-configuration
server, such as industry-leading 2Wire
CMS. A standards-based suite of
carrier-class business applications that
centralizes the management, monitoring,
and delivery of services to customer
premises equipment, CMS enables
seamless control over all facets of
broadband service delivery through the
HomePortal gateway. CMS allows
providers to remotely configure, manage,
and troubleshoot deployed gateways,
eliminating costly truck rolls and lengthy
customer care calls. CMS also enables
providers to quickly and efficiently
deploy new revenue-generating services
to subscribers individually or in large-
scale groups.
*Configurable power setting to comply with country-specific power requirements.
**CMS is TR-069-based and includes both TR-098 QoS provisioning and TR-104 provisioning features.
