Posted on: Monday, 14 March 2005, 03:00 CST

SAN JOSE, Calif., March 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sunrise Telecom Incorporated , a leading provider of service verification equipment for telecommunications and cable TV networks, announced today that its new SONET/SDH module has been approved by and shipped to a major European Tier-1 Network Service Provider based in the United Kingdom.

This recently introduced SDH/SONET module complements the Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet and Fiber Channel metro service modules already selected and delivered to this customer. "The Selection of the SDH/SONET module by such a major customer again demonstrates Sunrise Telecom's commitment and ability to understand service providers' rapidly evolving test requirements for Next- Generation-Network technologies," said Mike Venter, Director of Sales and Marketing, Europe, Middle East, and Africa. He continued, "Sunrise Telecom anticipated and understood the importance of test modularity several years ago, and the pioneering development of the SunSet MTT family followed by the STT family are now leading edge examples of software and hardware modularity and scalability. Adding SDH/SONET capabilities to the existing MTT module portfolio has created the ultimate modular test toolkit for any field technician."

With more than 30 different test modules shipping, the SunSet MTT platform is the world's most comprehensive modular testing platform, generating significant user advantages in reducing workforce training, reducing test set acquisition costs, and streamlining capital tool administration. This proven field upgradeable, rugged, and yet compact field set provides a unique reference for copper, fiber, and metro testing -- and supports far more technologies than competitive products. Such applications include T1/E1, T3/E3, SONET/SDH, ISDN, IP, Gigabit Ethernet, Fiber Channel, ATM, Datacom, HSSI, x-DSL, OTDR, FTTx and triple play networks.

The SDH/SONET module, along with the entire SunSet MTT family, is being showcased at CeBit 2005 (March 10 to 16) in Hanover, Germany.
