Given the success of that initial project, the customer proposed a follow-on project to address the larger FTTR market, targeting residential deployments and expanding Ethernity's reach into a new mass-volume market. This is the largest single FPGA volume-based contract that Ethernity has entered into to date. With the device being a major enabler within a next-generation home gateway and considering the significant estimated volumes indicated by the customer beyond the committed volume per the contract, this may justify porting the design integrated on the FPGA to an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) to allow long-term competitive pricing. David Levi, CEO, Ethernity Networks said: "This deal confirms our prior expectations that Ethernity's contract wins would lead to follow-on business. We are extremely pleased with the advances we have made on a deployable PON product with this OEM customer, and we are excited to begin work on this extended offering for the new FTTR market. "This is a totally untapped market for Ethernity that utilizes our existing 5G infrastructure technology to serve a major connected residential market. I believe this is the tip of the iceberg in this growing market for Ethernity with further potential to generate significant additional revenue flows."
