Aware, Inc. to Demonstrate Four Simultaneous Phone Calls Over a Single ADSL Link BEDFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 9, 2001-- New Voice-Enabled DSL Technology Integrates Derived Voice Capability Into ADSL Equipment Aware, Inc. (NASDAQ:AWRE), a worldwide DSL technology leader and innovator, today announced that it would be demonstrating Voice-Enabled DSL (VeDSL(TM)) in its booth at the DSLcon Spring 2001 exhibition in Denver. The demonstration will show how VeDSL offers phone companies a cost-effective means to use ADSL to bundle up to four derived voice calls along with high-speed Internet access and POTS (plain old telephone service) for their residential customers, all over a single copper phone line. VeDSL technology, which reserves a dedicated channel of ADSL bandwidth for each phone call, allows derived voice functionality to be integrated into remote DLCs (digital loop carriers) and next-generation DSLAMs (DSL access multiplexers), thus avoiding the need for voice over DSL gateway equipment for these architectures. In addition, VeDSL's simplicity makes its integration into customer DSL modems less expensive. Aware's leadership role in standards bodies has been instrumental in achieving VeDSL's most recent milestones toward standardization. Aware is one of a group of DSL industry leaders working together to standardize the technology under its more generic term, `Channelized VoDSL'. "The progress of Channelized VoDSL in the standardization process speaks volumes about the broad support in the industry behind this technology," commented David Benini, DSL marketing manager at Aware. "Its growing support is largely attributable to the fact that Channelized VoDSL is so ideally suited for residential ADSL services, enabling providers to profitably offer multi-line voice and high-speed data service bundles to mass consumer markets." Aware will also be demonstrating Dr. DSL(R) loop diagnostics technology and the Veritas line of test and development systems. Aware can be found in Booth #905 at the DSLcon Spring exhibition at the Colorado Convention Center, Denver, Colorado, April 10 - 12, 2001. Aware will present at a session on Channelized VoDSL at the conference on Thursday, April 12 at 9:15 am. More About VeDSL VeDSL enables DSL equipment with the capability to deliver additional lines of voice to residential DSL consumers. VeDSL transports voice traffic over the copper loop within the DSL data stream by dedicating DSL bandwidth for each voice channel. Because VeDSL avoids the use of ATM or IP to carry voice, the complexity associated with these protocols is eliminated, while reliable toll-quality voice is ensured. It also delivers voice traffic to the access network just like a regular telephone call. As a result, VeDSL technology is less expensive and easier to integrate into existing switched networks and management systems, yet versatile enough to simplify evolution to next generation packet networks without replacement of the customer equipment. These features make VeDSL highly suitable for residential VoDSL services. A white paper with more information about VeDSL is available at Aware's website, www.aware.com.
