MRV beats CISCO to market...

(from IBD 09/04/96)

CISCO SYSTEMS INC. rose one point to 53 3/4. The networker is buying privately held Granite Systems Inc., a developer of Ethernet switches that move data at speeds of up to one billion bits per second. That's 10 times faster than top speeds currently in use. Cisco will pay $220 million in stock.
Granite is expected to market its gigabit switch early next year. MRV Communications Corp. is expected to be first to the market with a gigabit entry next month. MRV rose 1 3/4 to 21 3/4.

And the price point and technology of MRVCs switch will likely exceed Cisco's too. Also, MRVC has filed for a key switch patent.

Long on MRVC, and CSCO.
