Array Networks Wins Multiple Major SSL VPN Technology Awards; Awards and Recent Customer Wins Solidify Array's Leadership in the Expanding Chinese Security Market.

MILPITAS, Calif. -- Array Networks, the technology leader in Application Networking, today announced that two major trade publications in China have honored the company's new SPX5000 Enterprise SSL VPN with industry awards that reflect this product's exceptional performance and security. These awards, along with recent major customer wins, further validate Array's market dominance for secure remote access appliances in China.

China Network World announced June 6, 2005, that Array's SPX5000 won the sole "Clear Choice for Best SSL VPN" prize awarded by the publication's test and evaluation laboratory. The SPX5000 captured the China Network World award based on an open comparative test. The publication reports that Array's SPX5000 was the only SSL VPN appliance that met the test criteria. "The Array SPX5000 easily satisfies the top enterprise-level application requirements for maximum concurrent connection capacity, SSL transactions per second, and throughput. The Array SPX5000 demonstrated its undoubted superiority in product performance, functionality and security."

Array was also selected from more than 50 companies to receive the "Outstanding Solution in Information Security" Award from the 2005 China Information Security Annual Conference, sponsored by China ComputerWorld. Both awards were announced in Beijing during the first week of June.

The SPX5000 SSL VPN appliance made its debut at Interop, Las Vegas in May of 2005. The SPX5000 is a new Enterprise SSL VPN appliance with unsurpassed security, performance and scalability for large-scale enterprise networks. The SPX5000 supports 64,000 concurrent users, 250 VLANs, and 128 virtual sites all within a single appliance. The SPX5000 is twice as fast as the previous generation of Array SSL VPN appliances and is able to sustain Gigabit line rate with SSL traffic, making the SPX5000 an ideal alternative to replace IPSec VPN gateways used in large enterprises.

"We are delighted with the awards from these two prominent trade publications in China," said Michael Zhao, president and CEO, Array Networks. "Our customer wins with Tencent, AeroInfo, Bank of China and China Hainan Airlines, together with these two new awards further solidify our SSL VPN market leadership in China. These awards, and recent major customer wins in North America and Europe, firmly establish Array as the technology leader in this space."
