Allied Data Technologies bv has just completed what it describes as successful
testing of its CopperJet series of ADSL Modems/Routers at British Telecommunications
plc's (BT's) Broadband CPE Test Lab (Adastral Park, Ipswich, UK).
Testing confirms compatibility of both the CopperJet 800/ (ADSL Router) and
the CopperJet 800-USB (bus powered ADSL Modem) for connection to the BT ADSL
Broadband Network. The tests included 'transport layer tests' covering both
functional and performance testing with Alcatel and Fujitsu DSLAMs, verifying
compatibility with BT's deployed DSLAMS.
"We are delighted by the success of this testing," said Niels Everstijn, VP
Technology at Allied Data. "These tests further endorse the high degree of interoperability
that we have designed into our CPE products."
