Entropic Communications said today that its new software, called c.Link Access 1.5, is available for purchase. The software was designed to deliver triple-play services over cable connections in multi-dwelling units, high-density dwellings and single-family homes.

The new software enhances Entropic’s current c.Link Access triple play solution by supporting new features such as: multicast filtering, Internet Group Management Protocol, IP Type of Service mapping, and Virtual LAN support. Entropic’s c.Link is designed to work over operators’ existing coaxial cable infrastructure.

"Entropic continues to develop leading solutions which address the needs of our service provider customers," said Jim Zhao, Actiontec's director and general manager for APAC Broadband CPE Business, in a statement. "The additional feature set of c.Link Access 1.5 software provides a robust, low-cost vehicle for delivering high-quality, premium services for our customer base."
