ANDA Networks Receives SUPER Quest Award for the Most Promising New Technology in Optical Networks
ANDA's New EtherDAX™ 6000 Provides Large-Scale Metro Ethernet Service Aggregation and Transport
May 18, 2005 – Sunnyvale, CA – ANDA Networks, the leader in carrier-class solutions for fiber and copper-based access networks, has been honored by SUPERCOMM© as a runner-up for The Most Promising New Technology SUPER Quest Award in the Optical Networking category.  ANDA was honored for the company's new EtherDAX™ 6000 metro Ethernet aggregation product.  ANDA will highlight its EtherDAX™ 6000 solution at SUPERCOMM 2005, Booth #82037 and will be featured in the 10 Hottest Technologies Pavilion, Booth #82015-T.  Now in their eighth year, the SUPER Quest Awards are the pre-eminent honor given to communications and IT product and service manufacturers for superior achievement in public and private network design, and operations.
 

The award-winning EtherDAX™ 6000 supports carrier grade aggregation of next generation Ethernet service traffic by combining the benefits of Ethernet switching with the reliability and performance of traditional cross connect (DCS) capabilities. The new EtherDAX enables service providers to aggregate thousands of Ethernet customers into central office locations via ANDA's market share leading Ethernet-over-Sonet circuit bonding technology over either traditional copper or fiber based circuits.  The new EtherDAX platform extends and complements ANDA's EtherEdge and EtherReach series platforms which are deployed at nearly one dozen carrier revenue generating networks today.

 
"We are again extremely pleased that for the second time in the Optical Networking Category, another member of our EtherTone™ product family has received a coveted SUPER Quest Award," said Charles Kenmore, president and CEO of ANDA Networks.  "Our award-winning EtherDAX 6000 enables carriers to achieve their goals in the fast-growing metro Ethernet market and centrally manage thousands of subscribers from a single device in the central office, thereby saving significant operating costs. "
 
SUPER Quest Award recipients are selected as the best-of-the-best in creating the most innovative new technologies and products or supplying innovative new enterprise solutions.  Winners are chosen by a panel of judges including industry leading technology press, analysts and other experts.
 

According to TIA President Matthew J. Flanigan, “Each year at SUPERCOMM, hundreds of technology companies exhibit and demonstrate industry-leading products and services. Of those companies, there are a handful that embody the highest degree of innovation in our field.  It is those companies that we honor with the SUPER Quest Awards.”
