ARRIS Group, Inc (Nasdaq:ARRS) announced that in a recent field trial in Vienna, its customer UPC Austria achieved a remarkable sustained maximum downstream Internet speed of 1.3 gigabits per second - over a live network consisting of fibre optic and conventional coaxial cable. This data speed far eclipses what DSL operators can offer in Austria and provides further evidence of the future viability of UPC's Fibre Power Network. The tests were conducted over a live network with the DOCSIS® 3.0 ARRIS C4® CMTS with downstream channel bonding and Touchstone data modems, all of which are commercially available. The data speeds demonstrated in the field trial downloaded an HD movie in less than two minutes and more than 100 songs in less than five seconds.
