Cisco, Microsoft Expand Multimedia Alliance
(07/20/98; 4:19 p.m. EST)
By Reuters

Cisco Systems and Microsoft said Monday they had
agreed to extend their technology alliance to cover
systems for delivering multimedia voice and video over
computer networks.

Cisco and Microsoft said in a statement that over the
next few months, they will announce additional details
on how "streaming media" technologies from the two
companies will be made to interoperate on corporate
computer networks.

Current computer networks are designed primarily to
deliver data, while phone networks are geared for voice
communications. Streaming media networks would let
real-time video be delivered over Internet-based
computer networks.

Cisco stock had gained 3 1/2 to 103 1/4 in
midafternoon trading on Nasdaq, where it was the most
active issue. Microsoft was up 56 cents at 118 1/2, also
in active trade.

The companies said they will build on existing Microsoft
technologies such as Windows Media Player, Windows
NT Server NetShow Services, and NetShow Theater
Server, and Cisco's IP/TV and other Internet products.
