“TranSwitch(R) Corporation (NASDAQ: TXCC), a leading provider of high-speed semiconductor solutions for voice, data and video communications, today announced that Green versions of its Envoy(TM)-CE2 and Envoy-CE4 multi-port carrier-class Ethernet controllers are shipping to customers. The devices, among the first Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) or Green-compliant products available, are being incorporated into new and existing designs. Many OEMs provide Customer Premise Equipment (CPE), such as micro-MSPPs, and customer edge switches and routers, which can be classified as ‘commercial’ or ‘industrial’ equipment. These products need to comply with the European Union (EU) Directive on RoHS by July 1, 2006 in order to continue shipping into Europe and Asia. TranSwitch’s Envoy-CE4, a powerful Ethernet to SPI-3 controller for carrier-class networks, is now being deployed by a Tier One wireless communications OEM for the RoHS redesign of its high performance network security platform. Telecommunications equipment suppliers have until January 1, 2010 to meet the European RoHS requirements for systems classified for ‘network infrastructure’ use. ” Source: businesswire.com
