Good morning Brian-I'll try and give you the answer as to who owns the technology. First let me go back in time a couple of years. A company named ICMX-Federal was demonstrating in their McLean Virginia offices a desk top video teleconferencing system. I learned about this capability and asked for a demo. Even though I hold an MS in Communications Engineering I had serious doubts that a system as decribed to me could operate. Much to my surprise the live demo did work. That system which consisted of a 24x24 matrix switch and associated software plus transceivers which enabled the transmission of NTSC and audio over telephone twisted pair copper wire. I was amazed. As a result I accepted a i year consultancy with the company and became intimately familiar with this system. As time went on I did meet the inventor from Lightwave. But my enthusiam for ICMX continually decreased and my admiration for Lightwave grew apace. It turned out that the ICMX management totally mislead me about their business relationship with ICMX. Actually ICMX was not an authorized reseller and Lightwave would not do business with them. There is a long story behind all this which culminated in a law suit filed by ICMX against Lightwave in federal court in L.A. This suit was dismissed with prejudice last Monday. This leaves Lightwave free to file countersuits -not against ICMX because that company was legally deactivated this past Sept. But the officers,Tully,Christiensen and Campbell can be help financially liable for the fraud they committed. Sexi would also be involved in such an action for it was SEXI money who paid their lawyer who comes from San Diego California. So who owns the technology?? Certainly neither ICMX nor Sexi in so far as Lightwave's initial system. Today SEXI is trying to act as a system integrator and are trying to build a Lightwave look alike using several different combinations of components from various vendors. I [personally saw a demo of one such system in their hotel suite in Washington D>C> last summer. This was the time of a very large convention _AFCEA- in the Washington Convention Center. SEXI had a gorgeos booth with lots of posters. NO SYSTEM DEMO was available at the booth. Due to my persistent and technical questioning of the SEXI (i assume) employees at the booth I was finally advised to go across the street to the hotel and go to a particular suite where a demo system was up and running. I went to the suite and saw a system which employed an 8 port switch from Sigma Electronics and baluns(or line drivers/transceivers). On close inspection what I concluded was that this system in no way met the specifications on their literature. This system rquired a co-ax connection from a switch port to the balun. The output from the balun was on category 5 wire. Cat 5 is not ordinary twisted pair copper wire. It is used in Lan cable. The problem with using lan cabling for the transmission medium for this system is that I know of no building which incorporates spare lan cabeling in its structure. All buildings do include many spare pairs or ordinary twisted pair wireing. If you wish to install the system described briefly above it will work. However the cost of installation of lan cable throughout the building or the campus is very expensive. I have some idea of "THE SUPPOSED NEW SYSTEM" being put together by the new SEXI but have no comment at this point because I do not have all the detail. So who owns the technology. You have to be more specific as to what system you refer to. There are many companies today offering desk top video conferencing. AT&T.Intel,Video Lan, etc etc etc. All have pluses and minuses. Hope this helps and doesn't further confuse you.
