Amedia Networks to Demonstrate 100 Mbps FTTP Ethernet Access Solution at TELECOM'04, Las Vegas; Introduces Environmentally Hardened Products.

HOLMDEL, N.J. -- Amedia Networks (OTCBB: AANI) a company that designs and develops Ethernet broadband solutions for the communications industry, today announced that it will host a live demonstration of its QoStream(TM) platform, a Fiber To The Premises Ethernet Switched Optical Networking (ESON) solution at the United States Telecommunications Association's (USTA) Telecom'04 event, October 9-13, 2004 in Las Vegas at booth number 749.

The Amedia exhibit will consist of two virtual homes with fiber access showcasing High Definition TV, online interactive gaming, Voice over IP telephony, broadband data networking, and an integrated in-home wireless access point. The demonstrations will highlight the industry-leading quality of service, reliability, performance, and management capabilities that make the QoStream product family the ideal vehicle for local telephone companies to offer triple-play services.

Two of those products, the PG1000 Premises Gateway and AS5000 Aggregator Switch are now configurable in both an indoor and an environmentally hardened outdoor version and are planned to be available for shipment by the end of the 4th quarter of 2004. The hardened PG1000 mounts on the exterior of a home or office building, has separate locked access compartments for craft and subscribers, automatic alarms for both unauthorized access and customer-settable temperature thresholds, and offers eight hour back-up power via an integrated battery charger. It operates over the temperature range of -40(degree)C to +65(degree)C, as well as over outside plant ranges of humidity. The hardened AS5000 resides in a "street furniture" cabinet that requires no air conditioning or any other environmental conditioning for the outside plant environment.

"The hardened versions of these products are robust and flexible; they're the ideal solution for many of our customers" commented Frank Galuppo, Amedia Networks' CEO. "We believe that there is nothing else like them in the marketplace - particularly when you consider the greater than 90km reach from Central Office to Aggregator cabinet to Gateway supported by these systems." Mr. Galuppo added that both products use hot-pluggable optics so that the range between these units can be economically selected at installation time. "The hardened AS5000 configuration complements our standard operating range AS5000 that is popular among customers for a 40km 'homerun' CO to Gateway implementation."

Mr. Galuppo, will be featured as a panelist in the USTA session: "Ethernet Grows Up" on Wednesday, October 13th at 2:00 p.m., and is expected to discuss the changing role of Ethernet in the residential and small office / home office (SOHO) marketplaces

The USTA Telecom event continues to grow into one of the industry's premiere conferences, and attracts key industry decision makers in marketing, operations, finance, and engineering. For more information about the event, please visit www.ustelecom04.com
