Semiconductor Conference in Monterey, Calif. on May 8, 2002. Sender's comments will highlight the emergence and deployment of InfiniBand technology, Banderacom's high-performance IBandit semiconductor architecture, and the company's partnerships and customers. "The InfiniBand protocol will inevitably revolutionize communications in computer networks and data centers," said Senders. "Banderacom is an industry leader, with a strong record of achieving milestones in InfiniBand performance and interoperability solutions that continue to accelerate our customers' time to market." Senders noted that while a number of publicly traded semiconductor companies will make presentations at the Salomon Smith Barney Semiconductor Conference, only select private companies were invited. "For a privately held company privately held company A firm whose shares are held within a relatively small circle of owners and are not traded publicly. to speak at this prestigious conference is quite an honor," said Senders. "It's a good indication of the financial community's interest in InfiniBand technology as well as Banderacom's leadership in this rapidly emerging market." "We believe InfiniBand is poised to make a major impact on the data center over the next several years," Salomon Smith Barney reported in a recent emerging technology forecast. "InfiniBand allows for more flexible, scalable server environments resulting from the I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output function being decoupled from the CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. , superior clustering and application performance, and streamlined server and data center management." The Salomon Smith Barney Semiconductor Conference will be held May 8-9th at the Monterey Plaza Hotel The Plaza Hotel in New York City is a landmark 19-story luxury hotel with a height of 250 feet (76 m) and length of 400 feet that (122 m) occupies the west side of Grand Army Plaza, from which it derives its name, and extends along Central Park South in Manhattan. in Monterey.

About InfiniBand Architecture InfiniBand architecture is an industry standards-based interconnection technology that dramatically increases scalability, reliability and flexibility of server and storage systems used in modern networks. InfiniBand architecture is expected to replace Ethernet, Fiber Channel, and proprietary solutions in the chassis-to-chassis interconnect domain in today's storage and server networks. InfiniBand architecture provides a universal interconnect fabric enabling new, lower cost, higher performance, and reliable networks that are not possible today. About Banderacom Banderacom is an Austin, Texas-based fabless semiconductor company A fabless semiconductor company specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices implemented on semiconductor chips. It achieves an advantage by outsourcing the fabrication of the devices to a specialized semiconductor manufacturer called a semiconductor foundry or "fab. focused on dramatically increasing the performance and reliability of networking, storage and server system products in the dynamic new world of InfiniBand. Banderacom provides flexible, high performance semiconductors based on InfiniBand specifications.
