Force10 Networks Delivers Scalability to Increase Service Delivery Options for One of Korea's Leading Content Delivery Networks

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(Business Wire)--Force10 Networks(R), the pioneer in building and securing reliable
networks, today announced that GS Neotek has increased the reliability
and capacity of its content delivery network with the TeraScale
E-Series(R) family of switch/routers. The Force10 TeraScale E-Series
provides the reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet foundation GS Neotek
requires to efficiently scale its network while delivering new home
shopping and online gaming services.

   "We focus on delivering quality entertaining content to our
customers, and we need a flexible and scalable infrastructure to
support our business today while preparing us for future growth," said
Cheol Lee, director of the IT Business department at GS Neotek. "The
Force10 E-Series delivers the reliability we require to offer new and
exciting services to our customers today while providing a cost
effective foundation that can grow as our users and services expand."

   Leveraging the density of the Force10 TeraScale E300, GS Neotek
built a high level of scalability into the core of its network. With
that built-in capacity, GS Neotek can expand at the edge of its
network as traffic demands without reconfiguring the core, reducing
the costs of rolling out and managing new services.

   The Force10 TeraScale E-Series further supports GS Neotek's
business plans by delivering maximum network uptime. The TeraScale
E300 is designed to deliver reliable and predictable performance with
redundant components and features that can scale without impacting
throughput. Additionally, Force10's modular operating system, FTOS,
delivers the online diagnostics and inline serviceability features
that allow GS Neotek to manage, provision and troubleshoot without
bringing the TeraScale E-Series offline.

   "As life increasingly moves onto the Internet, facilitated by
companies like GS Neotek, it is easy to overlook the importance of the
network that enables that life," said Stephen Garrison, vice president
of marketing at Force10 Networks. "The Force10 TeraScale E-Series is
designed to deliver the reliability, control and scalability required
to enable new services without getting in the way of those services."

   The Force10 TeraScale E-Series has been deployed in Korea's
leading Internet data centers and portals, including KIDC, NHN and
DAUM. Additionally, the reliability of the TeraScale E-Series has
secured leading online gaming providers such as NCsoft, Nexon and
Neowiz as Force10 customers.

   The Force10 Reliable Networking product portfolio delivers the
reliability, network control and scalability that high performance
networks require to ensure their services and applications are always
available.
