Press Release

Eugene, December 1, 2000: Advanced Relay Corporation announced today Windows 2000 support for all synchronous communication controllers supported by the LayGO®Protocol Tool Kit. All drivers are implemented as native Win2000 Kernel Mode Drivers. Advanced Relay strongly recommends using Win2000 on notebooks for its supported synchronous PCMCIA cards.

LayGO®is a complete hardware/software toolkit for the do-it-yourself or do-it-jointly development of high-end multiprotocol WAN products, such as tunnels, bridges, routers, gateways, switches, FRADs, multiplexers or special communication servers. For joint developments, Advanced Relay offers customization, application development and porting services.

At the driver level, LayGO®supports HDLC/SDLC, BISYNC, MONOSYNC, ASYNC and transparent mode. The LayGO®protocol stack includes FRMR (Frame Relay), LAPB, LAPD, NRM (SDLC), X.25/LAPB, X.25/LAPD and XOT (X.25 over TCP/IP). Besides Win2000, LayGO®operates under WinNT, Win9x, Solaris, Linux, QNX and MS-DOS. A common API encapsulates the application from protocol services and hardware.

"Contrary to all expectation, Win2000 is clearly the best operating system offered so far by Microsoft", said Ulrich Richers, Director of Technical Marketing at Advanced Relay. Other than NT 4.0 it comes with good PCMCIA and USB support.

Advanced Relay Corporation, a Eugene (Oregon) based Company, has been successfully working for 18 years in the production of software tools for synchronous communications developers. Since its introduction in 1995, LayGO®has been widely used in applications ranging from data collection for phone switches (Nortel, Lucent, Motorola, Siemens, DSC), air and rail traffic control systems, burglar alarm systems, banking and military applications.

The DataFire Sync/570i has 256 KB dual ported RAM and supports two or four synchronous lines at speeds of 5 Mbps with RS-232, RS-422/485, V.35 and X.21 interfaces (www.digi.com). The prices for the LayGO®package including the DataFire Sync/570i card and cable start at $2000, depending on number of lines and protocol services.
