SPC300-EoC Solution

New generation Ethernet-Over-Coax SoC with Linux EoC firmware

High-performance, cost competitive, flexible, scalable, remotely manageable, SPiDCOM EoC Solutions are the ideal combination for Triple-Play communications over existing coaxial cable networks.

Building upon the success of SPC200-EoC Solution, widely deployed on the Chinese market, SPiDCOM developped the new generation SPC300-EoC Solution.

The SPC300-EoC Solution is based on an open platform with a dedicated Linux EoC firmware.

The SPC300-EoC Solution is available in two versions:

  • SPC300c: 15x15mm 265-contact PBGA, with all interfaces available, advised for master nodes design.
  • SPC310c: 20x20mm 176-contact PQFP, with an optimised set of interfaces, advised for slave nodes design.

Use case:

SPiDCOM SPC300-EoC Solution has been designed for broadband added-value applications over existing CATV networks.

Cable-operators can take advantage of this new EoC solution to provide added-value Triple-Play services to their customers over existing CATV infrastructures.

To know more about EoC use case, you can browse EoC/MDU page.

Main features of SPC300-EoC Solution:

  • Advanced dual-core architecture
  • 10/100/1000 Ethernet MAC, RMII/MII/GMII* PHY Interface
  • Multimedia interfaces:  PCM, I2S, MPEG TS*
  • General Purpose interfaces: GPIO, UART, SPI, 8-bit parallel*

* : GMII, MPEG TS and 8-bit parallel are only available on the SPC300 PBGA package.

  • 15x15 mm 265-contact PBGA (SPC300) / 20x20 176-contact PQFP (SPC310)
  • RoHS compliant packages
  • Low-power "green" standby mode
  • Supports "industry standard" AD9867 ADC/DAC front end
  • Open Architecture based on Linux v2.6

PHY overview:

  • Raw data rate of 300 Mbps
  • Frequency range: 2-35 MHz
  • Modulations up to 1024-QAM
  • Application processor dedicated to customer applications
  • Advanced Turbo Code FEC (France Telecom patents license)
  • 128-bit AES Link Encryption with easy plug-and-play key management

MAC overview:

SPiDCOM SPC300-EoC Solution MAC is based on a Linux kernel open platform. SPiDCOM delivers GPL (General Public Licence) Kernel & other applications, as well as the adapted toolchain (gcc) ; only specific PLC driver is encrypted.

This way, device manufacturers can easily develop and customize their own applications as well as their own network management tools.

Main features of SPC300-EoC MAC:

  • Service Management based on ToS or VLAN (Id or prio) for VoD, VoIP, Internet
  • Remote Network Management capabilities (SNMP, Telnet, FTP, TFTP…)
  • MIB files and SNMP agent provided to enable you to easily design your Network Management System directly. This way, you can fully manage your EoC network
  • Priority Management based on VLAN, ToS, Mac Address…
  • Up&Downstream bandwidth limitation
  • Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA)
  • True Multicast support
  • Broadcast Storm limitation
  • Mac Address Number limitation
  • Support of 128 nodes per master
