ParticipantYeah the BCOM division out here started off back in the 90’s and was established by my old supervisor. The division down here started as a focus for developing the chipsets for cable settops. BCOM actually licensed the technology from General Instrument. General Instrument manfactured settops, cable head end equipment and home satellite systems. Our design group designed the ASICs and we licensed the technology to Broadcom, Motorola, and ST Microelectronics in exchange for pricing breaks on other components needed in the boxes that they had
So BCOM ends up starting a group down here to use code we gave them to manufacture the same custom ASICs, and then resell them back to us and other manufacturers. Also my supervisor got in a spat with a VP of ours and went to BCOM right after this all went down to run the small group there. Of course over the past several years the team down there saw a HUGE expansion primarly due to wireless. Anyways just a quick history lesson… Pretty crazy stuff…
Agreed about MOT. Awhile ago MOT Broadband basically spun off what was left of settop group to Comcast to build cable security cards known as PODs, (Point of Deployment Modules) I think that the majority of staff at the MOT building up on Sequence is either wireless or sales of some type. However I will say that there are probably 75-100 people there still in the broadband group.
