Broadcom announced new system-on-chip solutions aimed at expanding intelligent broadband at the home edge. The BCM68850 is a 50G ITU-PON home gateway SoC with an integrated neural processing unit and native Wi‑Fi 8 compatibility, intended for deployment at the intelligent edge. It provides NPU-accelerated capabilities across cable, PON, Wi‑Fi, and set-top box platforms. Broadcom also expanded its Wi‑Fi 8 portfolio with BCM6772, BCM6774, and BCM6776 SoCs for routers, extenders, and repeaters, each with integrated multi-band radios and support for DDR4 and DDR5 memory controllers. The BCM6776 targets premium tri-band designs and includes dual PCIe Gen3 controllers when paired with BCM6718.
"The BCM68850 is a 50G ITU ITU-PON home gateway SoC. It features an integrated neural processing unit (NPU) and offers native Wi-Fi 8 compatibility. The device is deployed at the intelligent edge and provides a range of NPU-accelerated solutions across cable, PON, Wi-Fi and set-top box platforms."
""The BCM68850 is a defining milestone for global fiber networks; we are redefining the broadband edge as the central intelligence hub of the home," Philip Radtke, Broadcom's vice president of product marketing for the Wireless and Broadband Communications Division, said in a press release."
""This flagship SoC joins our established lineup of NPU-accelerated fiber, cable, set-top box, and Wi-Fi solutions, ensuring operators can efficiently deploy edge-intelligent broadband regardless of the access medium and extend that intelligence all the way to the edge.""
"Broadcom also expanded its Wi-Fi 8 portfolio with the SOC Wi-Fi 8 BCM6772, BCM6774, and BCM6776 devices. The BCM6772 is the core foundation for Broadcom's mass-market Ethernet routers, extenders, and repeaters. It features integrated 2×2 2.4-GHz and 2×2 5-GHz radios, a versatile memory controller (DDR4 and DDR5) and comes in a compact 15×15 mm FCBGA package."
