OPNET Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:OPNT), a leading provider of
management software for networks and applications, today announced
the formation of a model development consortium focused on the new
WiMAX (802.16) communications standard. WiMAX is a wireless network
technology that is expected to compete with DSL, cable, and T1 for
delivering broadband Internet access to businesses and homes. The
consortium is led by OPNET and includes representatives from
several leading technology companies, with Motorola participating
as a Founding Member. "The purpose of our WiMAX model development
consortium is to establish a framework that is shared by leading
industry and government organizations," stated Taylor Salman,
Director of Business Development for OPNET. "The result will be a
powerful simulation modeling suite for WiMAX network planning and
design. We are extremely pleased with Motorola's commitment to the
process." As a global leader in wireless communications and
mobility, Motorola has launched its MOTOwi4 portfolio that includes
WiMAX (802.16e) solutions. The consortium focuses on 802.16e, which
in addition to fixed applications, provides portable and mobile
broadband wireless access that can support roaming anywhere within
a WIMAX-enabled zone, making it suitable for applications such as
high speed Internet access "on-the-move" and mobile VoIP.
"Leveraging OPNET's framework gives us the opportunity to design
and test Motorola's differentiated components for our WiMAX
equipment. This will help Motorola bring our MOTOwi4 WiMAX mobile
device product to market faster by reducing the development cycle
time through system modeling," said Jaime Borras, corporate vice
president, Motorola iDEN(R) Networks and Mobile Devices.
Availability The first release of the OPNET WiMAX modeling suite
was made available to consortium members in September 2005.
Development is planned to continue in phases, with the next
incremental release targeted for February 2006. For more
