In a maneuver to strengthen its position in the worldwide telco market, Motorola has arranged to be able to brand, market, and sell IP DSLAMs from ECI Telecom.

Motorola will add outside plant and central office IP DSLAMs from ECI to its own fiber-to-the-node (FTTN) and fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) products.

The IP DSLAM is supported by an IP/Ethernet switching fabric and quality-of-service (QoS) assurance capabilities.

Motorola said it will be investing in integration of these platforms into its current Ultra-Broadband access portfolio, and hence will have an exclusivity period for the North American market.

Financial terms of the multi-year deal were not disclosed.
