DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 6, 2000--
Helps Developers Build Robust Telecommunication Connectivity
Applications for VxWorks and Solaris Environments
Interphase Corporation (NASDAQ:INPH), an international supplier of
next-generation networking technologies, today announced the
immediate, worldwide availability of Software Development Kits (SDKs)
that allow developers to integrate the Interphase 4535 PMC
Multiprotocol T1/E1 Communication Controller into numerous
telecommunication applications running in VxWorks and Solaris
operating system environments.
The VxWorks and Solaris SDKs include operating system drivers,
sample code, software tools and documentation that aid productivity
and speed time-to-market for developers creating third generation
wireless, broadband Internet access and AIN communication systems.
These new development tools enhance Interphase's expansion into the
telecommunications arena as a leading provider of communications
controllers for next-generation service provider networks.
"As more devices become connected over telecommunication networks,
especially via wireless and the Internet, service providers require
superior technology that will help them get reliable, innovative
services to market quickly," said Linsey Matthews, "Interphase
Embedded Systems Product Marketing Manager. With the release of our
new SDKs, embedded system developers can now use the 4535 to quickly
deliver a new generation of applications to their customers that take
full advantage of the leading operating systems in the communications
industry."
VxWorks is one of the most widely adopted real-time operating
system (RTOS) in the embedded industry. The VxWorks SDK for the 4535
includes:
-- Operating system drivers for VxWorks 5.4 and Tornado 2
development environments
-- Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and protocol support
for ATM (AAL0 and AAL5), SS7 (MTP2), ISDN, Frame Relay, X.25,
PPP, and HDLC
-- Robust software tools that greatly facilitate third party
development including configuration utilities, debuggers,
protocol analyzers, dump utilities and trace utilities
Solaris, known for its robustness and scalability, is the leading
non-RTOS operating system in use for communication applications
according to recent research from Venture Development Corporation. The
Solaris SDK for the 4535 includes:
-- Opeating system drivers for Solaris 2.6, 7 and 8
-- APIs and protocol support for ATM (AAL0 and AAL5), SS7 (MTP2),
ISDN, Frame Relay, X.25, PPP, and HDLC
-- SNMP sub-agent
-- Robust software tools including configuration utilities,
debuggers, protocol analyzers, dump utilities and trace
utilities
About the 4535 Communications Controller
The 4535 PMC Multiprotocol Controller provides two
software-selectable channelized T1/E1 communication links and is the
perfect complement for high availability CompactPCI systems or
VME-based designs targeted for telecommunications applications.
Offering an integrated, high-performance architecture with support for
multiple frame-based protocols, as well as ATM and SS7, the 4535
provides the robust and flexible communications necessary for
telecommunications systems designers. More information on the 4535 and
