Upon frequency band approval, the partnership will enable Allied, a
global provider of secure Ethernet/IP access solutions and a leader in
the deployment of IP Triple Play networks over copper and fiber access
infrastructures, to quickly enter the potentially burgeoning WiMAX
market in Japan.
"This is a compelling strategic partnering relationship for both
companies," said Hiroshi Mano, CTO of Allied Telesis Holdings K.K.
"Allied has significant expertise in producing all-IP broadband access
systems with a unique combination of value, reliability, management and
security. The addition of Aperto's robust, carrier-class WiMAX products
will be a strong complement to Allied's existing wireline and wireless
solutions."
"We are excited about our alliance with Allied Telesis," said Reza Ahy,
Chairman and CEO of Aperto Networks. "Allied is a focused solutions
provider with a strong presence in IP-based broadband access. Assuming
the carriers secure the necessary frequency and regulatory approval for
WiMAX, we expect Japan to become a significant market for both of our
respective companies."
