Coriolis Networks Announces General Availability of Products; Flexible and Cost-Effective Solution Available for Carrier Deployment.Business/Technology Editors ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 5, 2001 SUPERCOMM 2001--Coriolis Networks, based in Boxborough, Mass., is taking advantage of its presence at SUPERCOMM 2001 to announce the general availability of its premier product line, the OptiFlow Network(TM). Using the OptiFlow platform, carriers will now be able to deliver gigabit Ethernet, TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) A technology that transmits multiple signals simultaneously over a single transmission path. Each lower-speed signal is time sliced into one high-speed transmission. and other data services from a single network with rapid service turn-up and end-to-end provisioning. The OptiFlow Network manages bandwidth as a shared resource across an entire geographically distributed network and provides automatic real-time dynamic bandwidth allocation Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) is a technique by which traffic bandwidth in a shared telecommunications medium can be allocated on demand and fairly between different users of that bandwidth. to match bandwidth resources with service requirements. "Increasing bandwidth to offer new services and improving the velocity of provisioning are critical demands of businesses today and we've seen a great deal of interest in the benefits of our technology," said Robert L. Castle, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Coriolis Networks. "The OptiFlow Network provides carriers with a flexible and cost-effective way to recover more than 75 percent of the bandwidth stranded in their traditional SONET networks." "OptiFlow is different from other transport solutions in that it uses embedded network-wide bandwidth manager software to fully utilize, reuse, groom and aggregate the bandwidth in the entire metro optical network," Castle continued. "This ability bridges the gap between high cost, but reliable SONET networks, and highly scalable, but difficult to manage, IP networks." System prices start at under $10,000 and depend on the configuration, switching capacity, number of wavelengths and I/O modules. Coriolis will be exhibiting at SUPERCOMM 2001 June 5 - June 7 in Hall H, booth #8211 and will also participate in today's pre-show exhibit to be held 7:30 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. In addition, Coriolis is included in an on-going User Network Interface Interoperability Demonstration in booth #150D, sponsored by the Optical Internetworking Forum The Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF) was organized to facilitate and accelerate the development of next-generation optical internetworking products. The OIF produces Electrical, Tunable Laser, Very Short Reach Hardware Interfaces. . About Coriolis Coriolis Networks, founded in 1999, is delivering a family of next-generation metro optical networking products that redefines the economics for delivery and management of traditional TDM and rapidly growing data services. Based on the Optical Spatial Division Multiplexing (OSDM OSDM Optical Spatial Division Multiplexing (Coriolis Networks) OSDM Old-School Death Metal (music genre) OSDM OneSpace Designer Modelling (CAD product) (TM)) architecture, the OptiFlow Network(TM) solution allows carriers to retain the reliability of SONET in a highly scalable data-centric operating environment. Coriolis does for optical networks what packet switching did for private line networks. For more information, visit www.coriolisnet.com or call 978-264-1904. About Supercomm Celebrating its 13th year, SUPERCOMM 2001 is one of the largest annual communications and information technology exhibitions and conferences. It is being held at the Georgia World Congress Center The Georgia World Congress Center or GWCC is the major convention center in Atlanta. It is the fourth-largest convention center in the United States at 1.4 million ft2 (130,000 m2) and hosts more than a million visitors each year. & Georgia Dome, Atlanta, Georgia. The event is produced by the United States Telecom Association The United States Telecom Association is a trade association for telecommunications service providers and suppliers. The Association represents 1,200 companies offering a wide range of services across the communications platforms, including voice, video and data over local (USTA) and the Telecommunications Industry Association See TIA. (body, standard) Telecommunications Industry Association - (TIA) An association that sets standards for communications cabling. Cables that TIA set standards for include: EIA/TIA-568A and EIA/TIA-568B category three, four and five cable. (TIA (1) (Telecommunications Industry Association, Arlington, VA, www.tiaonline.org) A membership organization founded in 1988 that sets telecommunications standards worldwide. It was originally an EIA working group that was spun off and merged with the U.S. ). Last year's show was attended by more than 53,000 analysts, press and registered exhibitors.
