Increase Global Availability Of Its Multi-Service Access Platforms
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Feb. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Overture
Networks, a leading developer of packet-based multi-service access
platforms, today announced the launch of its worldwide partner
program. Through this program, Overture Networks will team up with
leading systems integrators, solutions and alliance partners to
develop, test, and sell solutions focused on themulti- service
access space. The program provides a foundation for working with
organizations that have complementary customer and product
emphases. Under the aegis of the program, Overture Networks and its
partners will work together to increase sales opportunities and to
develop differentiated, interoperable solutions at the metro edge.
The partner program will help Overture Networks align itself with a

unprecedented levels of sales support, product training and
certification, marketing and communications, technical support, and

continually being asked to get more out of their installed systems.
They need to expand and evolve services quickly while providing new
services at lower costs and preparing their network for future
requirements -- in a cost-consciousmanner," said Jeff Reedy,
president and chief executive officer for Overture Networks. "To
address these challenges, we are teaming up with industry-leading
companies that will extend the value of our solution by integrating
with more systems and applications in carrier- class networks, all
of which will greatly benefit our mutual customers." Worldwide

three main categories: Systems Integrator Partners, Solutions
Partners and AlliancePartners. * System Integrator Partners help
Overture Networks extend its global reach and expand into new
markets by selling, delivering and supporting the ISG family of

technology integration for the ISG platform. * Alliance Partners
provide tested, pre-integrated solutions that are interoperable
with all Overture Networks platforms. These partners may also
participate in reselling Overture Networks' ISG products under an

NEC Corporation and Movaz Networks. As part of this announcement,
Estracom S.A. de C.V will become a new systems integrator partner.
