LOS ALTOS, Calif., March 27, 2006 – Provigent Inc., a leading provider of system-on-a-chip (SoC) solutions for broadband wireless transmission, announced today that its customer base has now passed 30 – including many top-tier companies – as a growing number of system vendors incorporate Provigent’s PVG310 single-chip modem in their point-to-point radio systems.

 “We are very pleased with the rollout pace of point-to-point systems designed with the PVG310, as additional customers reach serial production and deploy these systems worldwide,” said Eli Leizerovitz, Provigent’s vice president, sales and business development.  “Being a software-programmable, flexible solution, the PVG310 provides an excellent basis for system vendors to leverage the benefits of an off-the-shelf solution and create a broad variety of unique designs with differentiating features.”

The PVG310 has been designed into PDH, SDH and IP traffic systems and, more recently, into systems that support mixed TDM and IP traffic.  This is being achieved by Provigent’s new ProviBand^TM technology, which enables differential services with multiple CoA (classes of availability) over wireless backhaul links, thereby efficiently provisioning the available payload bandwidth by implementing ACM (adaptive code and modulation).

Provigent’s PVG310 is a highly integrated single-chip modem specifically optimized for point-to-point radio systems.  It incorporates state-of-the-art modulation, demodulation and FEC (forward error correction) functions and supports a net payload of up to 311Mbps (2xSTM-1) and 622Mbps (STM-4) using XPIC technology.
