This year, AVM's CeBIT trade fair stand is all about products for
broadband access and communication. For example, AVM's first terminal
equipment for VDSL, the next generation of fast Internet connections,
can be seen in operation at CeBIT 2006. Another AVM premiere features
close integration of DECT, DSL and VoIP. There's also news from the
FRITZ!Box family, with numerous new products to make broadband access
still more attractive, centering on the current top-of-the-line
FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7170. The communications specialists from Berlin
will be setting the standards once again at this year's fair,
especially in the booming Internet telephony market. AVM will be
showing the whole wave of new products at CeBIT, March 9 to 15, 2006,
in Hall 13, Stand C48.
Market Booms Thanks to VoIP-Growth Continuing Strong in 2006
According to a current study by the Wahlen research group, 10 percent
of German citizens already use Internet telephony. Continued rapid
growth is expected in 2006 thanks to attractive service offerings,
new products and greater convenience. More and more minutes of
connection time are expected to shift from fixed phone lines to the
Internet. Industry experts anticipate up to a fivefold increase in
VoIP connection minutes by this summer. In other countries too, VoIP
is advancing rapidly. France Télécom for example expects the
proportion of personal calls placed over the Internet to increase
from 15 to 40 percent by the end of 2006. A similar proportion is
expected in Germany by 2008.
New Top-of-the-Line: FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7170
At CeBIT AVM will also present the new head of the FRITZ!Box
family, FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7170. The new development is based on the
multiple award-winner, FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7050, and combines a VoIP
PBX,  a WLAN router and an ADSL modem. Furthermore, it allows you to
connect USB accessories, such as memory sticks, printers or disk
drives, and share them throughout the LAN. And it permits phone
calls, whether over the Internet (VoIP) or over the fixed line, even
while the computer is off. FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7170 works on both ADSL
and ADSL2+ lines. All WLAN wireless connections are encrypted, right
out of the box, using the secure WPA standard. And the Stick & Surf
function allows you to connect computers to the FRITZ!Box's WLAN with
no wireless configuration set-up.
AVM Demonstrates Perfect Integration of DECT, DSL and VoIP
Also at CeBIT, AVM presents the first highly integrated device to
combine DECT, DSL and Voice over IP in one. The new product permits
phone calls both over the Internet and over a fixed line, whether
ISDN or POTS. The DECT station is a high-end telephone for the most
demanding users,  and offers full convenience, including a color
display, no-hands talking, and an answering machine. Furthermore,
computers can be connected by LAN (Ethernet) and WLAN interfaces.
Thanks to the combination of FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN features, a single
product will be all that's needed for all PC and voice
communications. AVM's single-product integration and easy
installation are aimed at a broad target group. The new device will
be marketed through network operators and service providers. Further
details, including the product name and price, will be announced at
CeBIT.
Trade Fair Premiere for VDSL Terminal Equipment
At this year's fair, AVM presents the first terminal equipment for
the forthcoming VDSL standard, currently with data speeds of up to 50
megabits per second. The new FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7540V, for example,
is equipped with an integrated VDSL modem, two analog ports for
telephones, four Ethernet LAN ports as well as WLAN, 
and a USB host. AVM has the expertise for VDSL broadband technology,
and accordingly the new FRITZ!Box has been developed by AVM, from the
printed circuit board to the user interface. The product's market
launch will be coordinated with the availability of the VDSL network
and the corresponding offerings by network operators and service
providers.
All the new AVM products will be at CeBIT 2006, Hall 13, Stand C48,
March 9 to 15.
