Access processors in Chinese basestation trials
Datang Mobile is using WinPath access processors in its Super Node B, a high-capacity basestation currently participating in TD-SCDMA field trials in China, for current and future 3G deployments
The WinPath1 silicon family and the wide selection of networking software are used in numerous networking and communication system providers including many Tier 1 telecommunication manufacturers. Wintegra's WinPath2 devices benefit from the innovative silicon architecture and utilise the rich suite of production quality datapath software available with earlier family members.
WinPath2 extends the architecture started with the original WinPath family by now utilising six data processing elements (WinGines) instead of four.
This change extends the performance of the WinPath1 family by more than doubling the processing capability for the Data Path.
These WinGines are decoupled from the Control Path processor to better fine-tune overall system performance and power.

Additionally, the WinPath2 Ethernet capabilities were significantly enhanced to address ever-expanding, IP-based markets.
A new MIPS core, the 24Kc, has been added providing twice the Control Path processing power of WinPath1.
WinPath2 not only provides optimised solutions for the markets addressed by WinPath1, such as DSLAMs, Access Routers, BPON systems, integrated voice and data systems, and wireless transport, but also addresses new market segments such as 3G wireless channel cards, GPON, WiMAX, multi-service provisioning platforms, multi-service access routers, and sophisticated triple play systems.
