the israeli version of CMTN........Orckit Achieves Interoperability with Leading ADSL Vendors TEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Orckit Communications Ltd. (Nasdaq: ORCT - news), today announced that it has achieved interoperability with industry leading chip, DSLAM and CPE vendors. Recently, the Orckit DSLAM system and modem achieved interoperability with Analog Devices, Alcatel, Centillium, GlobeSpan, ITeX, Motorola, SAS India, Texas Instruments and 3Com. Orckit's sustained commitment to industry interoperability is demonstrated in its continued work and contribution with world standard institutes including ANSI, ETSI, ITU and the ADSL Forum. Orckit has recently participated also in interoperability testing at the University of New Hampshire laboratories. ''Orckit is already supplying large volumes of its DSLAM systems to major telco's around the world,'' said Dan Arazi, Executive Vice President Sales and Marketing at Orckit. ''Working towards and achieving ADSL interoperability will ensure a faster wide-scale deployment of DSL worldwide. This will enable ADSL to become the technology of choice, in the high-speed Internet access market.'' Orckit's ADSL is currently being deployed in North America, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Orckit's DSLAM uses KeyWave(TM), the world's first single chip ADSL solution, jointly developed by Orckit and Fujitsu Microelectronics. KeyWave(TM) fully supports full-rate G.DMT (G.992.1, T1.413 Issue 2) and G.lite (G.992.2) standards. As a founding member of the ADSL Forum, Orckit will participate in the Consumer Electronics Show in January 2000, in Las Vegas where the Forum will host an ADSL interoperability event. Orckit will exhibit its latest DSL solutions to the public in the upcoming ITU's Telecom '99 show in Geneva and is excepted to demonstrate also interoperability with other DSL vendors.
