• High-speed data transmission using existing infrastructure:

  The XPAK transceiver module transmits data up to 300 meters error-free at a rate of ten gigabits per second. On average, more than 80 percent of a company's infrastructure today utilizes such multimode optical fiber networks.
• Internet, video, and multimedia applications via satellite:

  Constellation, developed by Infineon in cooperation with ViaSat of the U.S. and ZyXEL of Taiwan, enables VDSL to achieve a transmission rate up to 200 times that of conventional 56k modems.
