Netrake and Kineto Wireless Announce Product Interoperability for Support of UMA Wireless LAN Solutions; nCite Security Gateway and Kineto UMA Network Controller Deployed Jointly in Multiple UMA Commercial Trials.PLANO, Texas Plano (IPA: /ˈpleɪnoʊ/) is a wealthy suburb of Dallas, Texas, located to the north, mainly within Collin County, but also extending into Denton County. According to the 2000 U.S. & MILPITAS, Calif. -- Netrake and Kineto Wireless today announced the companies have successfully completed extensive interoperability testing to support currently installed UMA (1) (Unlicensed Mobile Access) See GAN. (2) (Upper Memory Area) Memory in a PC between 640K and 1M. More relevant in the days of DOS, this region was broken into Upper Memory Blocks (UMB) reserved for video memory and other systems. Netrake's nCite(TM) Security Gateway and Kineto's IP-based UMA Network Controller (IP-UNC) are currently deployed in multiple commercial trials for UMA-based mobile/Wi-Fi convergence. This joint solution allows mobile operators to leverage their existing infrastructure and utilize UMA-based technology to cost effectively manage and accelerate fixed-to-mobile usage in home and enterprise environments. "Kineto is partnering with best-of-breed companies to secure UMA networks to meet the explosive demand for mobile/Wi-Fi convergence," said Tom Elam, vice president of network products for Kineto Wireless. "Netrake's nCite(TM) Security Gateway provides a highly secure framework and industry-leading performance, resulting in more secure and reliable UMA services." The nCite(TM) Security Gateway encapsulates the voice and multimedia in secure, encrypted IP tunnels to ensure privacy for wireless usage over the public Internet. It does this utilizing IPSec encryption and provides the ability to establish hundreds of thousands of media and signaling security associations without adding network latency. Netrake's "Secure Edge Architecture" also provides airtight network defense through measures such as Denial of Service A condition in which a system can no longer respond to normal requests.

Netrake leverages the performance, security, and scalability leadership established in wireline networks to provide wireless carriers with the ability to secure their wireless LAN networks. "Kineto is a committed partner with extensive experience in delivering UMA solutions," said Mark Neider, vice president marketing and product management, Netrake. "Together with our nCite Security Gateways, GSM service providers worldwide are able to deliver secure, high-quality voice, video and multimedia services over UMA networks." The core component of Kineto's mobile/Wi-Fi convergence solution is the Kineto IP-UNC, a carrier-class network element that integrates with a service provider's existing voice and packet switching systems, and uses standard interfaces to extend high-performance mobile services over IP access networks and WLANs. The Kineto IP-UNC manages and secures all subscriber access to mobile, voice, data, and IMS (1) See IP Multimedia Subsystem.

IMS was widely implemented throughout the 1970s under MVS and continues to be used under z/OS. services from various WLAN See wireless LAN. WLAN - wireless local area network locations and facilitates automatic, seamless roaming and handover n. 1. The act of relinquishing property or authority etc. to another; as, the handover of occupied territory to the original posssessors; the handover of power from the military back to the civilian authorities s>. between licensed radio access networks and WLANs. About UMA Technology Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA) technology is the 3GPP GPP Government Performance Project GPP General Purpose Processor GPP General Physical Preparedness GPP Gambian People's Party GPP Good Pharmacy Practice GPP Gross Primary Productivity GPP Green Procurement Program GPP Generic Packetized Protocol standard for mobile/Wi-Fi convergence. UMA Technology enables access to mobile voice, data and IMS services over IP broadband access and unlicensed spectrum technologies, such as Wi-Fi. By deploying UMA technology, service providers can enable subscribers to roam and handover between cellular networks and public and private WLANs using dual-mode mobile handsets. With UMA, subscribers receive a consistent user experience for their mobile voice, data and IMS services as they transition between networks. The specifications are available for download at the UMA Technology web site (www.umatechnology.org) as well as the 3GPP web site (www.3gpp.org). About Netrake Netrake is a leading provider to fixed and mobile service providers for real-time delivery of voice and multimedia solutions across IP networks.
