Native Networks Opens UK HQ

LONDON -- Native Networks, a developer of optical solutions for optical access networks, announced today the opening of their corporate headquarters in London. The UK office will be the base of operations for Native Networks' marketing, sales and technical support for the company's NativeMux(TM) family of products. Native Networks' expansion into new offices in London reflects the growing interest and investment currently being made by European carriers in optical solutions such as those from Native Networks. "Incumbent European Telcos, emerging Pan-European carriers and city operators are all implementing new optical metro and access network strategies. These strategies, coupled with end customers' requirements for new, high bandwidth, data-oriented services provides Native Networks with exciting opportunities for corporate growth," said Dr. Gilad Goren, co-founder and President of Native Networks. "The opening of our corporate headquarters in London emphasizes our confidence in the resilience of European telecom service providers and their ability to invest long-term in our solid technological vision for efficient delivery of revenue-generating services." Native Networks will be presenting its first product, the EtherMux-M(TM), and its service-aware network management system at SUPERCOMM 2001, 5-7 June, 2001 at the Georgia World Congress Center, Atlanta, GA in Booth 350-D, Georgia Dome.
