Business Wire
Pinnacle Data Systems, Inc. (PDSi) (AMEX: PNS) today announced that
it has entered into an agreement with Telrad Networks Ltd (Telrad),
an Israel-based telecommunications equipment and services
organization that provides communications products and services
used by millions of end-users worldwide. Under the terms of this
agreement, PDSi will supply customized versions of its
carrier-grade ComputeNode� chassis manufactured to Telrad�s
specific requirements. PDSi�s ComputeNode line is based on the PCI
Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group (PICMG) Compact PCI (cPCI)
standard. Two different designs will be supplied to Telrad - a 4U
chassis, and a larger 8U, both with customized backplanes and
featuring specially-enhanced versions of PDSi�s proven Alert!Node
chassis management and alarming card. Both chassis designs have
passed required telecommunications certification for use in North
American (NEBS) and international markets. Telrad will integrate
these chassis into Carrier Grade Voice-over-IP (VoIP) Trunk/Media
gateway systems to be sold globally by their customer, a major
North American telecommunications OEM, over the next several years.
�Telrad chose to work with PDSi because of their experience with
carrier-grade systems, including NEBS certification,� said Moiz
Terem, Vice President of Telrad�s Commatch Line of Business.
Continuing, �We also selected PDSi for their experience in
cPCI-based telecommunications systems, plus the company�s ability
to rapidly design and deliver the customized solutions we require.�
Michael R. Sayre, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated,
�Developing this significant relationship with Telrad over the past
two years was accomplished by a talented team of PDSi sales and
engineering folks located in the U.S. (California and Ohio) and The
Netherlands. We look forward to working with Telrad on this
multi-year program and continue to discuss additional opportunities
to provide world-class telecommunications solutions for its global
customer base.� About PDSi PDSi provides computer design,
production, and repair services to original equipment manufacturers
who build computers into their products in industries including
medical equipment, telecommunications, defense and imaging. PDSi
also helps major computer platform manufacturers respond to
customer requirements for customized solutions and extended service
life. PDSi specializes in areas where these OEMs often get little
help from larger outsource firms, solving the challenges associated
with complex technologies, low to medium volume production, and
long-term service of third party products. Not simply a repair
depot or a contract manufacturer, PDSi represents a more
collaborative and flexible outsourcing partner who helps its
clients manage costs, meet unplanned demand changes, improve
customer satisfaction, and respond aggressively to new trends in
the technology market place. With its innovative and proactive
staff of engineering, manufacturing, program management and supply
chain specialists, PDSi tailors solutions that meet the particular
business and operational needs of each OEM. For more information,
