announced that its Chairman Charles Kissner will conduct an
interview today on TalkOnStocks, a daily online streaming
video financial news program that reaches 80 million people

leadership of Digital Microwave (DMC), and the company's new
direction and company name. The program will be available for

DMC, which will change its company name to DMC Stratex
Networks in August, is an independent wireless solutions
provider with a leading market share in the broadband fixed
wireless access and mobile wireless solutions markets. ON24

To meet the growing demands for bandwidth and network
capacity for businesses, DMC is shipping its broadband fixed
wireless access products to providers, such as CLECs, in
record amounts for the company. The company's newest
solution, the Altium(TM), is a product family designed to
meet the demanding requirements of ultra-high-speed wireless
access networks. Altium combines the industry's highest
broadband wireless access capacity with the most spectrally
efficient radio frequency modulation available today. It uses
high density coding (128 QAM) to deliver 155-Mbps wireless
fiber-like capacity in only 28 MHz of spectrum bandwidth,
half that of other available wireless products. This
efficiency allows wireless-based service providers to
dedicate less of their licensed spectrum for installed
systems, providing for the best dollars-per-Mbps-per-MHz
metric available today.

one of the world's foremost solutions providers for broadband
wireless access -- enabling the development of complex
