ZTE Selects LSI StarPro Media Processor Solution for Wireless Portfolio
Award-winning LSI SP2600 Multicore Media Processors to Power Next-generation Wireless Infrastructure

Bangalore, Karnataka, India, Wednesday, September 16, 2009 -- (Business Wire India) -- LSI Corporation (NYSE: LSI) today announced that the LSIT StarPro® SP2600 family of multicore media processors has been selected by ZTE Corporation (HK: 0763, SHE: 000063), a leading global network and telecommunications equipment supplier, for integration into their next-generation wireless platform. ZTE chose the SP2600 because it will enable them to develop their next-generation media gateway with minimum risk, cost and time to market.

LSI StarPro multicore media processors are designed to meet the increasingly stringent demands of high-density wireless infrastructure applications. Scalable to 12 DSP cores per SoC, the SP2600 family is designed to cost effectively meet the demands of high-density voice and video processing. The SP2600 provides a single platform for a wide range of telecommunications applications from entry-level multi-service business gateways through wireless carrier-class media gateways.

"ZTE supplies leading-edge wireless equipment that requires high-performance, cost-sensitive solutions," said Mr. Liu Jianye, CTO of Core Network Products, ZTE Corporation. "LSI StarPro media processors provide industry-leading features, low power and cost per channel."

All LSI StarPro media processors support multiple DSP cores, embedded CPUs and co-processing engines. In addition, LSI developed a custom version of its modular media processing software for ZTE that allowed them to integrate the SP2600 into their existing architecture with minimal changes to the rest of the system.

"Tomorrow's enriched wireless traffic will require the power of multicore media processing technology," said Charlie Kawwas, vice president of marketing, Networking Components Division, LSI. "ZTE's selection of the LSI StarPro family reinforces our position as the global leader in media processor price- performance, channel density and energy consumption."

In May, the StarPro SP2612 media processor was selected as the 2009 winner of the Network Products Guide Award in the Best Integrated Circuits category. For more information, please visit www.lsi.com/networking_home/index.html.
