Actelis Networks Announces Continued Product Innovation; Actelis' MetaLIGHT Solution Works Seamlessly With Fiber to Provide Ubiquitous Metro Ethernet Services.CHICAGO -- Actelis Networks(R) Inc., a worldwide leader delivering solutions that enable profitable, carrier-grade broadband services See broadband and broadband service provider. over local-loop copper, today announced continued product innovation of its successful MetaLIGHT(R) platform with demos planned across the floor as well as informative presentations and discussions at Supercomm 2005 taking place in Chicago, IL, June 6-9. Actelis Networks in Booth 78018 will be unveiling its newest enhancements to the MetaLIGHT platforms. Two optical ports have been added to enable the system to work seamlessly with fiber infrastructure. The MetaLIGHT, with its switching capabilities, can be joined directly with fiber to form a ring network configuration. This solution uses standards-based Ethernet and avoids the need to deploy Ethernet access switches in the Central Offices to deliver Ethernet over copper services, if such switches are not already available there. Actelis will take part in the world's first demonstration of Carrier Ethernet in the Metro Ethernet Forum The Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) was founded in 2002. It is a non-profit international industry consortium, dedicated to worldwide adoption of Carrier Ethernet networks and services. (MEF MEF Marine Expeditionary Force MEF Metro Ethernet Forum MEF Ministerio de EconomÃa y Finanzas (Spanish) MEF Mobile Entertainment Forum MEF Middle East Forum (think tank) ) pavilion (48085). The MetaLIGHT platform will be an integral part of the largest-ever interoperability The capability of two or more hardware devices or two or more software routines to work harmoniously together. For example, in an Ethernet network, display adapters, hubs, switches and routers from different vendors must conform to the Ethernet standard and interoperate with each other. SuperDemo that is showcasing 30 members of the MEF. High performance broadband Internet Access Broadband Internet access, often shortened to just "broadband", is high speed Internet access—typically contrasted with dial-up access over modem. Dial-up modems are generally only capable of a maximum bitrate of 56 kbit/s (kilobits per second) and require the full use of a service with a predictable and verifiable Service Level is the mainstay of a Carrier's Ethernet Services product offering. Actelis, with its partners T-Pack and Iometrics, will demonstrate guaranteed rate access and document the Service Levels using tests derived from the MEF certification program. The MetaLIGHT platform is also located in the Telecommunications Magazine 10 Hottest Technology Pavilion (82015I) featuring its solution for copper bonding to produce the highest rate, reach, and reliability in the industry. The standards-based product, powered by Actelis' patented MetaLOOP(R) technology, delivers over 70 Mbps of premium fiber-quality Ethernet over the existing copper loop. Actelis Networks is hosting an IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission, Geneva, Switzerland, www.iec.ch) An organization that sets international electrical and electronics standards founded in 1906. It is made up of national committees from over 60 countries. IEC - International Electrotechnical Commission panel presentation, "Overcoming Copper Limitations for Triple Play and Business Broadband," Wednesday at 12:30 p.m. Yossi Saad, vice president of Marketing and BD will moderate a panel comprised of Michael Kennedy

Kennedy and Ethel Skakel Kennedy. , Network Strategy Partners; Sameer Sheth, Nortel Networks (Nortel Networks Limited, Brampton, Ontario, www.nortelnetworks.com) A world leader in telecommunications products, which includes switching, wireless and broadband systems for service providers and carriers, telephones and systems for residential and business users, computer telephony ; Mark Guinther, Actelis Networks; and Aamir Hussein, Qwest Communications
Actelis' award-winning product portfolio enables system integrators, service providers, and private network operators to use the existing copper infrastructure to provide premium long-reach voice, video and data services quickly and universally. Available in point-to-point or point-to-multipoint configurations, Actelis' MetaLIGHT standards-based, Ethernet-over-Copper platforms deliver up to 70 Mbps of high-quality Ethernet services to customers or locations over the existing copper plant. Powered by Actelis' patented MetaLOOP(R) technology, the Actelis' platforms provide far better rate, reach and reliability than other Ethernet-over-Copper solutions. With the ability to provide high-quality bandwidth to distances beyond 18,000 feet/5.5km, Actelis' platforms are ideal to support a wide range of broadband applications, including transparent LAN services A service from a carrier that links remote Ethernets together. It is called "transparent" because the connected Ethernets are viewed as one Ethernet by the customer, regardless of the technology employed by the carrier in between. , LAN (Local Area Network) A communications network that serves users within a confined geographical area. The "clients" are the user's workstations typically running Windows, although Mac and Linux clients are also used. interconnection, and voice and video over IP. They are also well suited to backhaul bandwidth to DSLAMs/NGDLCs, WiFi and cellular base stations. About Actelis Networks Actelis Networks is the first company to enable telecom operators to generate carrier grade new broadband service revenues using existing local loop copper. With the superior rate, reach and reliability of Actelis' award-winning MetaLOOP technology, carriers can deliver high bandwidth symmetric services to their customers without further infrastructure investments.
