Ann Arbor, MI – January 10,
2005 Concurrent
Technologies and SBE Inc., (NASDAQ: SBEI), announce a
partnership allowing Concurrent Technologies to integrate and
sell, internationally, SBE’s portfolio of high performance
communications PMC/PTMC modules and future AdvancedTCA
Mezzanine Card (AMC) versions.
Concurrent Technologies’ range
of high performance CompactPCI and VME Pentium single board
computers, are an ideal choice for a host processor board and,
when combined with SBE’s PMC network interface cards, offer
users a flexible combination of communication interfaces to
suit their particular application. Together, these solutions
are well-suited for service provider and enterprise level
applications, including Wi-Fi, enterprise servers, SANs, VoIP,
internet access devices (IADs), telecommunications networks as
well as security and defense.
“Recognizing a need for high
performance communication systems, Concurrent Technologies
provides a range of high performance, yet low power, single
board computers which are customizable using the on-board PMC
sites,” said Glen Fawcett, Managing Director and CEO of
Concurrent Technologies. “Our core competency of integrating
an Intel Pentium and chipset combination within a highly
functional CompactPCI, VME or future AdvancedTCA board is
complemented by SBE’s core competency of producing high speed
PMC/AMC communication products.”
“Packaging our core WAN and LAN
products with Concurrent Technologies’ reputable computing
platforms creates a level of versatility that today’s
customers deserve and are demanding,” commented Dan Grey,
President and CEO of SBE. “We look forward to providing users
turnkey Linux-based solutions with optimum modularity and
