Hatteras Networks' HN4000 EtherFLEX Product Family Named Winner of 2008 Internet Telephony Excellence Award
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. --(Business Wire)-- Hatteras Networks, the global leader in flexible Ethernet solutions for enterprise access services and next-generation mobile backhaul, announced today that its third-generation HN4000 EtherFLEX family of service delivery products has garnered a 2008 INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Award.
"We are proud to announce Hatteras Networks among the winners of the Fourth Annual INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Awards," said Rich Tehrani, Editor-in-Chief of INTERNET TELEPHONY. "All the companies recognized have created IP telephony products that have proven to be exceptional and in the end delivered winning solutions that benefited their customers."
Hatteras Networks' best-in-class HN4000 EtherFLEX service delivery products--which also captured the 2008 Eos Award for Ongoing Innovation and the Eos Spotlight Award for Overall Best In Show at NXTcomm in June 2008--enable carriers to deliver 10 times more bandwidth at one-tenth the cost over existing copper infrastructure. With Hatteras Networks solutions installed, carriers can increase their market opportunity for high-speed Ethernet services to business and institutional customers by 10-fold based on the current penetration of fiber optics.
This latest generation of the HN4000 family takes Ethernet service delivery to a whole new level of performance, delivering high bandwidth fiber-quality Ethernet services over bonded copper pairs. By leveraging the latest innovations in service delivery, the HN4000 EtherFLEX family cuts a carrier's time to revenue and operational costs for deploying new services by integrating copper loop qualification, management and monitoring capabilities.
"We are very excited about the overwhelming industry recognition of our EtherFLEX products' innovation and customer benefits," said Kevin Sheehan, Chief Executive Officer of Hatteras Networks. "Hatteras has a strong track record for ongoing innovation and our team and our customers continue to lead Mid-Band Ethernet to the next level."
