DIGL - After hours news Digital Lightwave Introduces Industry's First Integrated Portable DWDM Analyzer ================================================================ CLEARWATER, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 17, 2000-- New Product Designed to Meet Accelerating Customer Demand for Fast, Easy and Cost-Effective DWDM Optical Network Installation and Maintenance Digital Lightwave(R), Inc. (NASDAQ:DIGL), today introduced the industry's most comprehensive portable Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) analyzer, which provides network technicians with a fully integrated DWDM installation and provisioning system. Based on Digital Lightwave's core Network Access Agent(TM) technology, the DWDM channel analyzer (the DCA 425(TM)) reduces the number of test instruments required for DWDM fiber-optic network deployment and troubleshooting. With integrated bit error rate analysis capability, the DCA 425 is designed to support provisioning and maintenance of high-speed OC-48 and OC-192 circuits. It also features remote management access to a client company's network operations center. "By integrating the functionality of several dedicated diagnostic instruments into a single portable solution, costs associated with DWDM equipment installation, training and maintenance can be substantially reduced," said Ali Haider, executive vice president, research and development, for Digital Lightwave. "Its multi-user remote access capability allows simultaneous monitoring of active tests by experts located in remote network operation centers in support of on-site field personnel. In a sense, it's like sending an emergency medical technician out with a tool that gives him access to a host of specialists located back at the hospital." In 1996, Digital Lightwave led the market with a truly portable, touch-screen computer for fiber-optic network testing, and the company's development of a portable DWDM analyzer strengthens its position as a leading innovator of optical network monitoring and analysis equipment. T The DWDM analyzer includes substantial advantages for installation and maintenance of DWDM networks, including the following: -- Reduces the number of test instruments required by integrating optical power measurement capabilities, graphical spectrum analysis and SONET overhead analysis into a single portable solution -- Lowers training costs associated with learning multiple test sets -- Quickly pinpoints problems or potential problems with remote management functionality, reducing troubleshooting time -- Provides a multi-user locally or remotely controlled platform -- Meets international as well as North American standards -- Can easily be integrated with a company's existing test management system. T Digital Lightwave plans to demonstrate its new DWDM product at the Supercomm 2000 trade show, June 6-8 in Atlanta, Georgia (Booth No. 6615). About Digital Lightwave, Inc.
