net.com Short-listed for The World Communications Awards 2004 QServ
Selected in the Best Technology Foresight Category for Its
Industry-leading Quality of Service Capabilities FREMONT, Calif.,
Sept. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- In recognition of their
innovative QServ technology, net.com (NYSE:NWK) today announced
that it has been short-listed for the World Communications Awards
2004 in the category of Best Technology Foresight. QServ offers a
deployable implementation of the TR-059 standard for delivering
Quality of Service (QoS) over plain old DSL (PODSL). With nearly
100M DSL lines in the world today, TR-059 provides a framework for
delivering new revenue generating services like video and voice
over IP using an existing infrastructure. QServ technology,
available on net.com's SCREAM platform, is an integral part of this
framework, simplifying the simultaneous delivery of multiple
services with committed service level guarantees. The World
Communication Awards are widely recognized as one of the
telecommunications industry's foremost industry accolades. Since
its inception in 1999, a mere 22 companies have been short listed
in the Best Technology Foresight category from a total of 123
nominations. The winners of this year's award will be announced at
an awards ceremony in London, England, on October 11, 2004. "It's
an honor to be short listed for the prestigious World
Communications Awards," said Bert Whyte, president and CEO of
net.com. "This selection is a ringing endorsement of the market
value that net.com's SCREAM/QServ technology can offer carriers
that want to deliver higher-value, higher-margin, triple-play
services over their existing DSL networks." SCREAM, a next
generation broadband remote access server (BRAS) with IP edge
routing and ATM switching functionality, provides advanced QoS
capabilities for IP traffic on ATM access networks. Availability of
this QoS technology is critical in enabling carriers to migrate
from offering "best-effort" internet access to high priority voice,
video and data services. About the World Communications Awards
