"We couldn't think of a better way to show the effectiveness of our enterprise solutions than to actually make them the core of what powers the largest enterprise IT tradeshow in the United States," said Luc Adriaenssens, Senior VP R&D and Technology, Enterprise Solutions, CommScope. "This opportunity allows us to demonstrate the superior quality of our 10 Gb/s cabling and patching solutions in an extremely demanding environment while reinforcing the importance of cabling for future enterprise applications."

The backbone of the Network Operations Center (NOC) for the InteropNet trade show is connected via the InstaPATCH Plus Solution using SYSTIMAX Solutions' multimode, laser-optimized multimode and singlemode fiber solutions - OptiSPEED(R), LazrSPEED(R) and TeraSPEED(TM). Connectivity from the NOC to the exhibit floor will be provided by the GigaSPEED X10D Solution.

InteropNet is a key feature of the Interop events. Each time the trade show is held, Interop selects industry leaders to apply some of their "best practices" in designing and operating large networks to demonstrate "best-of- breed" technology. The selected companies may then promote the InteropNet as a leading example of how to tackle a wide-scale deployment of the latest production technologies. This year's InteropNet will offer 10/100/1000BASE-TX connectivity and high-bandwidth access to the Internet for exhibitors, conference rooms, meeting rooms and attendees.

"The InteropNet is a cutting-edge network built in collaboration with carefully selected vendors who put their products to the test of the ultimate networking challenge," said Lenny Heymann, Interop General Manager. "Our exhibitors and attendees depend on this network to connect them to the Web. Participants such as SYSTIMAX Solutions are valuable contributors to the innovation and expertise of the InteropNet for the benefit of our attendees."

"We feel very fortunate to have such high-performance cabling solutions as part of the InteropNet Network," said Glenn Evans, Interop's Lead Network Engineer. "The solutions themselves give us great flexibility to design our network in the most efficient manner and get it running quickly."

SYSTIMAX believes its GigaSPEED X10D Solution is the first end-to-end UTP solution that fully complies with the latest draft IEEE 802.3an task force guidelines for 10GBASE-T as well as the latest TIA/EIA and ISO/IEC Category 6A/Class E(A) requirements. It has been specifically engineered with enhanced cable and connector performance designed to support emerging 10 Gigabit Ethernet requirements. The GigaSPEED X10D Solution provides a next generation, total solution that supports both the bandwidth needs of today's enterprises and the needs of more demanding applications such as high resolution video, grid computing, data centers and Storage Area Network/Network Attached Storage (SAN/NAS).

The InstaPATCH Plus System features a high-density, factory-terminated, factory-tested, modular fiber connectivity solution that allows installers to connect system components together simply and quickly. This modular system approach enables 96 fibers to be ready for service in the time it takes to make a single fiber connection with traditional systems. The InstaPATCH Plus System is designed to support locations, such as data centers, that require high-density, rapid deployment and high performance. The InstaPATCH Plus System incorporates SYSTIMAX OptiSPEED multimode, LazrSPEED laser-optimized multimode and TeraSPEED singlemode fiber technologies to support today's most demanding applications while allowing easy migration to the next generation technology.

SYSTIMAX Solutions will be exhibiting at Interop Las Vegas 2006 at booth No. 1837 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center from April 30 to May 5. More information about Interop can be found at http://www.interop.com.
