"Addressing interoperability head-on is very important. It is the number one reason TEMs (telecom equipment manufacturers) aren't reaching the mainstream market for standards-based communications platforms. Once this is tackled, other challenges such as availability and management can be effectively addressed. By developing a consistent methodology for interoperability testing, CP-TA is a logical choice to take on these challenges and help deliver the promise of interoperability that has been unfilled to date."

About Polaris Networks


Polaris Networks was founded in 2003 by a group of former Agilent Technologies employees to focus on Network technology with particular emphasis on test tools. Since its inception Polaris Networks Polaris has quickly gained a reputation for developing and integrating software for devices that make up Wireless Networks such as LANs, MANs, RFID, HomePlug and PANs. Today, in addition to helping companies bring products quickly to market, Polaris also develops and markets a broad range of test tools.

Among the products marketed by Polaris are the RFID Protocol Analyzer, the WiMax Conformance Tool (used by the WiMax Forum) and the Network Commander for monitoring 802.11b/g and 802.11a WLANS. The EPC Global, a worldwide body for setting standards in the RFID space has selected Polaris for providing certification tools.

The latest addition to Polaris’s family of test tools is the ATCA Tester, an automated software tool for testing the hardware management software implementation in ATCA & AMC based building blocks with AdvancedTCA® and AdvancedMC™ System Management requirements. The tester is the product of choice for use in interop events and is also used by a large number of companies for their internal testing needs.

Polaris Networks is headquartered in Lexington, Massachusetts, USA .The R&D operations is housed in a 10,000 square feet modern building located in the Salt Lake Technology Park, Kolkata, India. For more information, visit http://www.polarisnetworks.net/.
