Ubicom(R) Announces OpenWRT Compliant Router Platform

Industry's leading open source router now runs on the world's most efficient
multi-processor platform

LAS VEGAS, May 19 /PRNewswire/ -- INTEROP -- Ubicom(R), Inc., a leading
provider of networking and multimedia processor solutions, announced today the
availability of a Linux-based OpenWRT compliant router platform that runs on
the Ubicom IP7100 Router Gateway Evaluation board. At Interop 2009, the
company will demonstrate the platform that allows OEMs and ODMs to rapidly
develop router products for consumer, SOHO, and SMB markets.

The platform includes comprehensive reference router software that is easily
customizable. The reference router software also comes with Ubicom's
StreamEngine(TM) QoS technology that can automatically classify and prioritize
latency-sensitive traffic. Ubicom's rigorous software quality assurance that
includes regression, white box and black box testing has been applied to this
platform to ensure quality.

"We are excited to be working with Ubicom on a truly unique multi-processing
platform. The combination of the Ubicom hardware and OpenWRT platform presents
a fascinating glimpse into the future of open source consumer friendly
devices; we look forward to future collaboration," said Mike Baker from
OpenWRT.

The solution is powered by Ubicom's IP7100 series network processor and
includes four Gigabit LAN ports, a Gigabit WAN port, a USB 2.0 port, two MPCI
connectors, and a UART console. The IP7100 network CPU can cost effectively
deliver up to 1 Gbps of system level performance and features networking
interfaces such as RGMII, PCI, and T1/E1, along with on-chip hardware
acceleration engines for QoS, VPN, and voice codecs. Tools for configuration
enable developers to quickly configure the processor interfaces and
functionality, while the GDB debugger can be used to step through code. The
advanced Profiler tool leverages the ability of the IP7100 processors to run a
profile thread real time non-intrusively and collect rich profile data such as
CPU and memory utilization per function.

The Ubicom IP7100 family of network processors featuring the UBICOM32(TM)
multithreaded architecture can be clocked at frequencies up to 600MHz. When
compared with a single-threaded RISC processor, designers can expect two to
three times the performance at the same frequency for most applications.
Designers can also use a wide range of interface options via Ubicom's software
I/O technology.
