ACTON, Massachusetts, July 13, 2004 - Azimuth Systems, Inc., innovators in scalable, automated wireless network test systems, today announced that it has signed distribution agreements with Toyo Corporation, Japan’s top distributor of network test solutions, and with Paralink, the leading provider to Taiwan of innovative network testing tools and advanced technology solutions. With the agreements, Azimuth expands its position as the leading provider of wireless network testing and performance validation solutions to two of the world’s most rapidly-growing wireless markets.
Toyo and Paralink will now become the exclusive integrators in their respective regions for Azimuth’s award-winning W-Series 802.11 WLAN Test Platform, the world’s first solution that enables allows 802.11 networks to be comprehensively and automatically tested as dynamic, scalable systems in a laboratory. The W-Series enables system and silicon vendors and end users to dramatically improve the economics and time to market of WLAN testing.
“Following our tradition of bringing world class network test products to the Japanese market the W-Series is a perfect fit for Toyo Corporation and our customer base. It’s the one solution that lets our customers – both vendors and service providers – precisely identify and measure factors such as roaming and quality of service that ultimately determine the success or failure of business-critical and real-time Wi-Fi applications such as Voice over Wireless IP,” said Koichiro Fukumoto, President of Toyo Corporation, “Azimuth has identified and solved this critical need.”
“The Taiwanese wireless LAN vendors are at the cross roads of the world’s wireless technology and products. The world class quality and performance of these products can now be objectively validated using the Azimuth W-Series, a repeatable and automated test tool” stated Chung-Li Yu, President of Paralink. “We are delighted to enter this strategic agreement with Azimuth, the world’s leader in wireless LAN test systems, and to join with them in providing Paralink’s customers with unprecedented abilities to efficiently accomplish performance, interoperability and certification testing of Wi-Fi products.”
W-Series’ RF Control: Reliable Wireless Testing for Reliable Network Performance
Wireless LAN users and vendors throughout the world have struggled to ensure the accuracy and repeatability of wireless network testing. Azimuth’s patented ability to isolate components in the test platform stabilizes the layer one RF environment, and provides the industry for the first time with a reliable, repeatable Wi-Fi test environment, so that results can be accurately compared over time, and across different vendor environments and sites.
The patented W-Series delivers:
Repeatability: an isolated and controlled RF environment that provides consistent correlation of test results between different organizations and geographically dispersed sites and from one set of equipment to another.
Scalability: scaling from a single AP with one client to multiple APs and hundreds of clients, with varying traffic and client load conditions, and a broad range of test permutations.
Automation: GUI based and programmatic TCL/TK test automation allows standardizing test procedures and processes across organizations, geographic boundaries, and the industry. Azimuth lets users realize simple, effective and reusable test configurations and parameters when and as needed.
Azimuth VP of Worldwide Sales, C.J. Meurell concluded: “Both for their technical depth and unmatched customer commitment, Toyo Corporation and Paralink Networks are recognized as the undisputed leaders in network test and measurement in their respective markets. Many of the world’s best equipment manufacturers, service providers, laboratories, semiconductor companies and enterprises look to Toyo and Paralink as strategic solution providers. We are honored to have been named as their provider of wireless test and measurement solutions.”
