SANTA BARBARA, Calif. and LONDON, United Kingdom – March 16, 2010 – Occam Networks®, Inc. (Nasdaq: OCNW) a leading broadband access supplier offering multi-service access platform (MSAP) solutions based on pure packet technologies, announced today that it has expanded its EMEA reseller network by signing one of Hungary’s leading systems integrators and resellers, Ring-NET of Budapest.

Ring-NET, which covers the whole of Hungary, was established in 1996, and is a successful systems integrator throughout the Central and Eastern European telecommunications market. Its areas of design and operational expertise include IP systems, VoIP systems and IP based video transmission systems, as well as numerous Cable IP networks at leading enterprises and carriers including MATAV (Magyar telephone company, Hungary), Antenna Hungaria, British Telecom Hungary and the BME Technical University.

“The Hungarian market is developing rapidly, in most cases much faster than those of its neighbours, and there is a real demand for high performance broadband access and new services such as IPTV,” said Ring-NET CEO Tibor Orban.  “Occam’s FTTP and DSL solutions give us flexible, reliable tools to meet these needs.”

“As one of the leaders in our market we are looking to constantly bring world class levels of service delivery and reliability and we are delighted to be teaming up with Occam Networks, who have vast experience in telecommunications and entertainment service delivery.  Combined with our attention to customer needs, we offer a compelling solution to broadband network operators.” 

The signing of Ring-NET follows the recent partnership with Maribor, Slovenia, based Optisis d.o.o. as a system integrator and reseller for Slovenia and the Adriatic countries including Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Kosovo, Albania and Hungary.

“As demand for increased bandwidth from both residential and enterprise users escalates, European network operators of all sizes are selecting fibre technologies such as Ethernet and GPON as the infrastructure solution of choice,” said Russ Sharer, VP of Marketing at Occam Networks. 

“This fits ideally with our range of products and I’m absolutely delighted to have Ring-NET join our growing base of strategic reseller partners to satisfy the broadband needs of the Hungarian market.”
