Motorola Further Supports Broadband Operators' Plans to Drive Digital
Penetration by Introducing an Advanced Set-Top Platform That Integrates the
Powerful Combination of HD and Dual-Tuner DVR


NEW ORLEANS, May 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Motorola, Inc. (NYSE:MOT)
today expanded the company's successful platform for high-definition
television (HDTV) by introducing the Motorola DCT6400 series -- a digital set-
top family that integrates HDTV with dual-tuner digital video recording (DVR)
capabilities.


Part of Motorola's "connected home" strategy, the DCT6400 will enhance the
value of a digital cable subscriber's package by providing simple, unified
access to the latest digital entertainment services, including HDTV decode and
watch-and-record DVR.


The Motorola DCT6400 Platform


With over one million HD units shipped as of April 1, 2004, Motorola's
digital set-top platform is the recognized leader for enabling operators to
deliver high-definition services to subscribers.  The new DCT6400 advanced
set-top extends this digital entertainment platform by adding dual-tuner DVR
capabilities -- enabling consumers to watch live HD content from one source,
while recording HD content from another.  With its integrated hard drive, the
DCT6412 set-top enables users to record standard digital television as well as
HDTV programming.


Additionally, the DCT6400 family supports a full array of advanced
interactive applications, including interactive program guide, and video-on-
demand. With the HD capabilities of the Motorola DCT6400 platform, operators
can realize additional revenue opportunities through such services as HD
video-on-demand (HD-VOD).


The platform's standard features include an integrated DOCSIS-compatible
cable modem, a smart-card reader, Ethernet and Universal Serial Bus (USB)
interfaces, Y-Pb-Pr video output, S/PDIF optical and coaxial digital audio
outputs, and baseband and RF audio-video I/Os.  All models enable direct
digital connection to consumer audio and video devices via 1394-DTV and DVI
interfaces.
