<<what is the connection between Hyperchannel and MRVC?>> This from the Q1 CC: Lotan continued: "MRV has funded three promising start-up internetworking companies: New Access Communications, for Metro-Access networks, Charlotte's Web Networks, for Carriers' Internet, and HyperChannel, for e-commerce and Network Security. New Access is first to combine a commercially viable DWDM system with data switching in a metropolitan ring. During the quarter, New Access won the overall Best Product Achievement Award at the ComNet DC trade show. Charlotte's Web's product is the next generation Terabit Switch/Router for Internet backbone applications. It will seamlessly integrate Cell and Packet based traffic, with a rich set of Differentiated Services based on latest IETF definitions. Non-blocking traffic flow starts at 128 Gbps, scaleable to multiple Terabits per second. Packet forwarding starts at 200 million packets per second. Competitive analysis shows Charlotte favorably competing on processing speed and offering the highest port density per rack space. For example, 256 Gigabit Ethernet or 64 ports of OC-48 can be supported in a single 19'' rack. Charlotte plans to exhibit for the first time at the SuperComm show, the Telecom industry's most prominent annual event, June 7 to 10. Our e-commerce startup is HyperChannel. Led by a former Cisco UK executive, HyperChannel's mission is to build an electronic B to B channel across Europe. This is accomplished through a proprietary two-tier e-commerce, between end-users, resellers and distributors. By collapsing the supply chain and automating the commodity aspect of a two-tier transaction, resellers can focus on the more productive part of their business, solving end users' problems. All this effort facilitates the creation of on-line stores. HyperChannel to date has performed beyond our expectations."
