mPhase Technologies Announces Sourcing Agreement with LEA for Next-Generation DSL Splitter Technology; mPhase to Be Exclusive Sales and Distribution Channel for Specific Customized ANSI-Compliant Product Line.LITTLE FALLS, N.J. -- mPhase Technologies, (OTCBB OTCBB See OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB). :XDSL), a pioneer in the delivery of video over fixed broadband networks and broadband components, today announced an agreement to source its next generation DSL DSL in full Digital Subscriber Line Broadband digital communications connection that operates over standard copper telephone wires. It requires a DSL modem, which splits transmissions into two frequency bands: the lower frequencies for voice (ordinary splitter technology from LEA S.A.S., a leading European-based supplier of components and subsystems to telecommunications equipment and service providers. The original manufacturing agreement will result in mPhase-branded next-generation DSL splitters that conform to the North American ANSI (American National Standards Institute, New York, www.ansi.org) A membership organization founded in 1918 that coordinates the development of U.S. voluntary national standards in both the private and public sectors. It is the U.S. member body to ISO and IEC. standards. "LEA is a key supplier to some of Europe's leading telecom vendors and carriers," said Ronald A. Durando, mPhase chief executive. "Its leadership in broadband components convinced us it made economic sense to adapt their technology to meet the needs of our North American customer base rather than design a new generation DSL splitter line from the ground up." As part of the agreement, mPhase is adding LEA's ActiveWire(TM) 4-Port Board to its catalog of ANSI-compliant digital subscriber line See DSL. (communications, protocol) Digital Subscriber Line - (DSL, or Digital Subscriber Loop, xDSL - see below) A family of digital telecommunications protocols designed to allow high speed data communication over the existing copper telephone lines between end-users and (DSL) splitters. This new generation circuitry is the first to integrate standard analog .5 micron CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Pronounced "c-moss." The most widely used integrated circuit design. It is found in almost every electronic product from handheld devices to mainframes. ASICs with conventional xDSL analog filters, yielding up to a three-fold decrease in size for the same performance. mPhase will display the product at the TelecomNEXT exhibition, Booth 1871, being held in Las Vegas, Nev. March 21-22. "ActiveWire represents a manifestation of Moore's Law as applied to signal splitters," said Eric Berthaud, LEA's 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. . "This first integration of an analog xDSL filter (ADSL/ADSL2+/VDSL2) in silicon translates into significant operational savings with more efficient use of available remote terminal and central office space."
