NEWBURYPORT, MA, Nov 12 (MARKET WIRE) --
This year Adder Technology is celebrating its 25th anniversary as a
leading manufacturer and developer of KVM switches, extenders and
KVM-over-IP solutions. Over the past quarter century, Adder has gained a
reputation as a pioneer in KVM switching and extension technology, and
particularly in the area of audio and video.
"This milestone would not have been possible without the dedication of our
employees and valued business partners," said Adrian Dickens, Adder's
founding director. "The KVM industry has seen many great advances in
technology over the last twenty-five years and Adder has been at the
forefront of developing new cutting edge technology and ideas in this
field."
Adder is well known for the development of adaptive compression in KVM and
extension solutions, which has brought video and audio clarity to
unprecedented levels. This ensures the best possible performance over any
given network connection which is especially critical for video
applications and KVM-over-IP, where excessive bandwidth utilization can
easily cause video performance to deteriorate under shifting network
conditions.
25 Years of Innovation
Adder Publishing Limited was founded in 1984 by Adrian Dickens after
graduating with an Electrical Sciences degree from Churchill College at
the University of Cambridge (England). The company was soon re-branded
Adder Technology Limited in 1986, at which point its focus changed to
providing solutions for clients wishing to connect different elements of
their computer operations, known in the IT industry as "computer
connectivity." Originally the company started with boxes for sharing
printers between several computers, which came before the mass deployment
of networks, then moved on to producing various networking products.
Adder Technology was one of the seed companies that sprang up in Cambridge
to perpetuate the technology focused Silicon Fen. For many years, Adder
Technology was based in the Cambridge Innovation centre on the Cambridge
Science Park before moving to much larger office and manufacturing
facilities in Bar Hill to cope with the business's rapid expansion.
Today, Adder manufactures KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) switches, extenders
and remote management solutions that are available in 60 countries through
a network of distributors, resellers and OEMs. Adder has experienced
continued growth, allowing the company to open additional offices in the
United States, Germany, the Netherlands, and Singapore, with a new office
just opening in China. Adder's latest technology, the AdderLink
Infinity, is testament to the company's love of innovation and technical
prowess, delivering distributed computing across a network with perfect
DVI video, USB and audio together with an almost limitless connectivity
matrix.
Adrian Dickens, Adder's founding director, still runs the company today
alongside his brother Nigel Dickens, technical director.
