SpeedTouch™ 985
Residential ADSL Triple-Play Gateway
SpeedTouch 985
Next Generation Device for Next Generation Networks
To offer exciting new broadband services to their custom-
ers, service providers are looking for a rich, solid, reliable,
and upgradeable platform to deploy in the homes. The
SpeedTouch 985 Residential ADSL Triple-Play Gateway has
been designed specifically with these objectives in mind
and represents a new step forward when it comes to mak-
ing Triple-Play a reality.
The SpeedTouch 985 is an ADSL gateway combining mul-
tiple integrated wireless LAN access points, an integrated
4-port Ethernet switch, USB master and slave ports, an in-
tegrated VoIP telephone interface and an integrated IP set-
top-box. The SpeedTouch 985 offers seamless connection
of wired and wireless, data, voice and video from anywhere
in the home with the convenience of a consumer electron-
ics device.
A solid platform as the foundation for building
value-added services
Based on an expertise gained from millions of ADSL gate-
ways sold to service providers around the world the Speed-
Touch 985 offers the reliability required to deploy a com-
plex mix of services.
The State-of-the-art integrated modem supports ADSL,
ADSL2 and ADSL2+.
With an integrated 802.11g access point, speed, security,
and performance are guaranteed. When

Residential ADSL Triple-Play Gateway
using 802.11g, you can transfer data at up to 54Mb/s
(five times the speed of older 802.11b wireless net-
works), and still connect to existing 802.11b products.
Due to the physics of the 5GHz modem, the 802.11a
band is better suited for QoS sensitive services like au-
dio and video streaming.
The Bluetooth access point can be used in parallel to
connect PDAs and phones directly to the Internet.
A traditional analog phone plugged into the modem is
all it takes to get access to VoIP services and start enjoy-
ing the benefits of next-generation telephony.
A printer can be connected directly to the USB master
port of the SpeedTouch 985(i) and shared across all the
devices on the home network.
DiffServ IP Quality-of-Service (QoS) and Wireless QoS
such as WME prioritize data streams and guarantee lo-
cal delivery of time-sensitive media to nodes on the
home network.
The FLEXIBundLE architecture enables service provid-
ers to define, manage and evolve the characteristics of
the service offered by the SpeedTouch to the end user.
This allows a SpeedTouch 985 to adopt the specific fea-
tures of a differentiated service offering. The basis for
this architecture is an extensive multi-role, multi-user
management framework that allows each individual
service to be enabled or disabled independently and re-
motely.
Voice services
The SpeedTouch 985 offers two analog phone connec-
tors. Once registered with a VoIP service regular phone
calls can be conducted over the Internet offering all the
benefits of IP telephony. The SpeedTouch 985 natively
offers services like Caller ID, CLIR, call waiting, call
transfer, 3-way conference and message waiting notifi-
cation.
Also, Bluetooth Cordless Telephony Profile support
makes it possible for users to place telephone calls over
the Internet from compatible mobile phones within
range of the access point.
Video services
The IP Set-Top-Box component offers support for so-
phisticated application such as video interactive guide,
TV web browsing or TV email through combination of
the integrated MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 – part 10 decoders,
MP3 decoder and web browser.
Intellectual property protection and secure content de-
livery is ensured by support for DES, DVB and AES vid-
eo encryption systems.
Remote Management
With the increasing complexity of the infrastructure re-
quired to deliver broadband services, implementing a
solution to remotely manage and troubleshoot CPE has
become a necessity. The SpeedTouch 985 is fully com-
pliant to DSL Forum TR-069 specification for remote
management of CPE. This compliance is duly and per-
manently validated through extensive interoperability
testing with the major management system vendors.
