SplitRock, The Prodigy Internet Access Provider, Selects Bay Networks' Remote Access Concentrator for Major Network Upgrade SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 5, 1997-- Initial Deployment to Total over 57,000 Ports Bay Networks,(R) Inc. (NYSE:BAY) today announced that SplitRock Services, Inc., the provider of Internet access to Prodigy customers, has selected Bay Networks' System 5000(R)-based 5399 carrier-class remote access concentrator for its Internet connection requirements, including 56 Kbps transmission. SplitRock selected Bay Networks' end-to-end concentrator solution based on its industry-leading performance and high port density, and the clear migration path to future IP technologies. In the initial implementation plan, over the next six months, SplitRock plans to install more than 1,200 5399 modules, which totals over 57,000 modem ports. The 5000 MSX chassis deployed as part of this rollout will be able to grow seamlessly to support over 150,000 modem ports as SplitRock's network grows. With support for both K56Flex(TM) and x2(TM) in the same 5000 MSX chassis, the 5399 remote access concentrator offers large telcos and ISPs unmatched flexibility, while also providing high-density access capabilities at a low cost per-port. Based on DSP modem technology, the model 5399 is software upgradeable to the eventual V.PCM standard, ensuring that users can capitalize on their technology investment. guide-p.infoseek.com o~~~ O
