SingTel Aeradio Purchases Concurrent Computer Corporation MediaHawk Video Server
Prominent Singapore Systems Integrator Chooses Concurrent After Evaluation of Competing Intranet Solutions
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 16, 2000-- Concurrent Computer Corporation (NASDAQ:CCUR - news) announced today that SingTel Aeradio Pte Ltd. (Singapore) recently purchased a Concurrent MediaHawk(TM) Video Server to be used as a development and demonstration system for integrating video into Internet Protocol (IP) networks. SingTel Aeradio, a prominent Singapore information and communications systems integrator, is a Concurrent Value Added Reseller (VAR).
SingTel Aeradio, a wholly owned subsidiary of Singapore Telecom, was seeking a high-performance video distribution network system for its corporate clients, which include many US Fortune 500 companies. SingTel Aeradio selected Concurrent's MediaHawk after performing its own technical evaluation in which the MediaHawk competed against solutions from three other companies. Singtel Aeradio determined that the MediaHawk was technically superior to the other solutions. The MediaHawk Video Server purchased by SingTel Aeradio will be used in-house as the company develops and demonstrates its expertise in integrating video into IP networks. The system will also be used to demonstrate intranet applications for SingTel Aeradio's many corporate customers.
Andrew Phillips, Concurrent Vice President-Asia Pacific, commented, ``This particular sale is significant because we beat out stiff competition from First Virtual Corporation, Cisco, and SGI to win this large, experienced systems integrator as a new customer. The MediaHawk was evaluated and proved to be technically superior.'' |
