- EXata Selected a 2009 Best Products Winner in Development Tools -

LOS ANGELES, May 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Scalable Network Technologies, Inc. (SNT), the leader in wireless network evaluation, announced today that Network Products Guide, industry's leading publication on information technologies and solutions has named EXata(R) a winner of the 2009 Best Products and Services Award for Development Tools. This respected annual award honors products and services that represent the rapidly changing needs and interests of the end-users of technology worldwide. As part of the tech-industry's leading global awards program, this year's Best Products and Services were nominated from all over the world.

EXata(R) is an advanced wireless network emulator for test and evaluation of mobile communication networks. EXata's breakthrough technology speeds the development and deployment of mobile wireless systems, making it possible to exercise both equipment-in-the-loop and humans-in-the-loop using "software virtual networks" (SVN's). An EXata SVN digitally represents an entire network - devices, software, transmitters, antennas, terrain, atmospheric and human interaction effects - every variable that affects actual network performance. EXata SVN's enable a new level of realism in network test and evaluation, interfacing with actual networks, running actual applications in real-time, thus enabling faster technology roll-out at greatly reduced cost.

"Increased end-user awareness and ongoing advances in technology are helping shape better products and services," says Rake Narang, editor-in-chief, Network Products Guide. "EXata delivers exact digital representation of network components so realistic that hardware, software and users cannot discern between a real system component and its emulation replacement."

"The concept of a network in a box is very appealing to enterprises needing to test, evaluate and train people on networks," said Rajive Bagrodia, CEO and Founder of SNT. "EXata provides the ability to replace lots of network equipment with a software virtual network. Because our technology provides a test environment with both repeatability and scalability, the cost savings to businesses are potentially huge."

A free demo version of EXata is available for download on the company website www.scalable-networks.com along with technical specifications on the product and free whitepapers. The product can be ordered immediately and is available for delivery. For more information, contact Lucinda Brown: voice 310.338.3318; email info@scalable-networks.com.
