ADTRAN(R), Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN, news, filings), a leading provider of next-generation networking solutions, announced that INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine has named ADTRAN’s Ultra Broadband Ethernet solution as a recipient of the 2010 Product of the Year Award.
Delivering the next generation beyond Fiber-To-The-Home, ADTRAN’s Ultra Broadband Ethernet is a revolutionary Ethernet-based class of solutions which initially delivers a 100 Mbps symmetrical broadband service to subscribers with ultra-low power and ultra-low latency, resulting in unmatched performance for new and exciting applications such as user-generated content, subscriber video conferencing, high-performance gaming, and more.
