customers with unique solutions to help them produce high-quality
devices that capitalize on and support the fixed mobile convergence."

As part of the collaboration, Kineto will use the Agilent solution
to develop and validate its own client software, as well as support
Kineto's platform and handset customers in bringing new UMA-enabled
products to market.

"Bringing Kineto's field-proven expertise in UMA software
development to Agilent's leading test platform will result in a
best-of-breed solution," said Mark Powell, co-founder and vice
