ViaSat Small Tactical Terminal Selected for Canada's Department of National Defence's CP-140 Aurora Aircraft

ViaSat Small Tactical Terminal Selected for Canada's Department of National Defence's CP-140 Aurora Aircraft
ViaSat Real-time Link 16 Communications Small Tactical Terminal Enables Network Interoperability between Canadian Armed Forces and Coalition/Allied Forces
EY CENTRE, Ottawa, May 25, 2016 /CNW/ -- (CANSEC 2016) -- ViaSat Inc. (Nasdaq: VSAT), a global broadband services and technology company and General Dynamics Mission Systems--Canada, announced today the ViaSat Small Tactical Terminal - KOR-24A - (STT) was selected for use on the CP-140 Aurora aircraft (a Lockheed P3 variant), used by the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF).
The RCAF leverages the CP-140 Aurora long-range patrol as a "command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance" (C4ISR) platform. The Aurora fleet is used for domestic and international operations across a wide variety of disciplines, including domestic surveillance of the Canadian Atlantic, Pacific and Arctic Oceans, as well as anti-surface warfare, maritime and overland intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), strike coordination, and search and rescue (SAR) missions. Specific selection of the ViaSat STT was made in recognition of the terminal's ability to meet ongoing mission needs while satisfying deployment and fielding requirements, such as interoperability across all other Link 16 enabled platforms (Halifax-Class Frigates, CF-18 Hornets and fixed/mobile ground stations), affordability, exportability as well as immediate terminal availability.
ViaSat brings real-time combat communications with its two-channel, software-defined STT. The low-SWaP (size, weight and power) STT enables the CP-140 Aurora aircraft to maintain constant presence on the Link 16 network while simultaneously operating voice and data connections on a second channel. The terminal offers an affordable, ruggedized, compact form factor that highlights both innovative design and usability.
"This is a monumental award for ViaSat as it represents our first STT award to be used by the Department of National Defence as well as marks the CP-140 Aurora as a new airborne platform for our STT," said Ken Peterman, senior vice president, Government Systems Division, ViaSat. "In working with General Dynamics Mission Systems--Canada, we are enabling a key coalition partner, the Department of National Defence, to meet the ongoing needs of their missions in a timely manner. By embedding our proven Link 16 STT into the CP-140 Aurora fleet, these aircraft will now find themselves in the 'heart of the action' during critical coalition missions, as the Link 16 platform provides advanced communications with real-time situational awareness and location data, and simultaneous voice or data communication on two key waveforms at the battlefield's edge."
Availability
Deliveries for the ViaSat STT on the CP-140 Aurora fleet began in March 2016. The new STT is on display this week at Canada's Global Defence and Security trade show: CANSEC, May 25-26, 2016, in the JPOM/ViaSat booth #826.

Connoisseurs Sonic Dazzle Stik(TM) and Dazzle Drops(TM) Offer a Faster, Easier, Better Way to Clean Jewelry

Connoisseurs Sonic Dazzle Stik(TM) and Dazzle Drops(TM) Offer a Faster, Easier, Better Way to Clean Jewelry
Revolutionary New Products and New Packaging at JCK Las Vegas
WOBURN, Mass., May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Connoisseurs Products Corp., the Global Leader in Jewelry Care, will introduce three revolutionary jewelry cleaning products -- and one newly packaged consumer favorite -- at the JCK jewelry show in Las Vegas. Look for Connoisseurs at Booth #63053 at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino from June 2 through June 6, 2016. For more information, please visit http://www.connoisseurs.com.
"After a limited introduction last winter, we're delighted to roll out our groundbreaking Sonic Dazzle Stik and Dazzle Drops jewelry cleaners at JCK Las Vegas," said Douglas Dorfman, President and CEO of Connoisseurs Products Corp. "These new products are changing the face of jewelry care, offering consumers a faster, easier, better way to clean jewelry at home."
https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160524/371646
Connoisseurs Sonic Dazzle Stik: Just Like a Jeweler Cleaned It
The Sonic Dazzle Stik Power Cleansing Brush cleans jewelry at 5,000 oscillations per minute; it uses the same hand-held sonic technology that has become so popular in facial care. The Sonic Dazzle Stik comes packaged with Dazzle Drops Advanced Jewelry Cleansing Gel, which is perfect for gold, platinum, diamonds, precious and semi-precious stones, and fashion jewelry; and Dazzle Drops Silver Jewelry Cleansing Formula, which not only cleans but removes tarnish from silver jewelry.
Both non-toxic formulas are gentle on hands and nails.
"The Sonic Dazzle Stik achieves professional-level jewelry cleaning at home...just like a jeweler cleaned it...without the bulk and mess of those big systems that you hide under the bathroom vanity," said Dorfman.
Dazzle Drops Advanced Jewelry Cleaner: No More Cleaning in Dirty Solution
Traditional dip-style jewelry cleaners can lose efficacy as soon as they are opened and continue to lose more each time they are used. Consumers must continually clean their jewelry in dirty solution.
"With new Dazzle Drops Advanced Jewelry Cleaner your jewelry will be cleaned with fresh cleaning solution every time," said Dorfman. "After each cleaning, simply dispose of the non-toxic liquid. It's easy to use and safe for the environment."
Dazzle Drops Silver Jewelry Cleaner: The One That Does It All
Until now, traditional dips for cleaning silver jewelry may have removed tarnish, but they did not polish and prevent tarnish buildup.
"Dazzle Drops is the first and only silver jewelry cleaner that does it all - cleans, polishes and protects from tarnish buildup -- thanks to Connoisseurs' exclusive Tarnish Control Formula," said Dorfman.
Dazzle Drops Products Features
Dazzle Drops Advanced Jewelry Cleaner and Dazzle Drops Silver Jewelry Cleaner come with an attractive acrylic Cleansing/Rinsing Container, a larger size, easy-grip Jewelry Cleaning Brush and a more ergonomic Dipping Scoop to lower jewelry into the Cleansing/Rinsing Container.
Both formulas are non-toxic and easy to use...and gentle on expensive manicures.
Diamond Dazzle Stik(TM): A Jewelry Cleaning Classic in a Bold, New Package
Diamond Dazzle Stik, the popular forerunner of the Connoisseurs Dazzle Collection, comes in a sleek new package in a palette of Connoisseurs Classic Red and Icy Blue.
Loved by millions for its "twist, brush and dazzle" ease of use, this portable jewelry cleaning wand -- now longer lasting -- fits perfectly in a purse or cosmetics bag, so it's easy to keep your diamond rings sparkling.

Traditional dip-style jewelry cleaners can lose efficacy as soon as they are opened and continue to lose more each time they are used. Consumers must continually clean their jewelry in dirty solution.
"With new Dazzle Drops Advanced Jewelry Cleaner your jewelry will be cleaned with fresh cleaning solution every time," said Dorfman. "After each cleaning, simply dispose of the non-toxic liquid. It's easy to use and safe for the environment."
Dazzle Drops Silver Jewelry Cleaner: The One That Does It All
Until now, traditional dips for cleaning silver jewelry may have removed tarnish, but they did not polish and prevent tarnish buildup.
"Dazzle Drops is the first and only silver jewelry cleaner that does it all - cleans, polishes and protects from tarnish buildup -- thanks to Connoisseurs' exclusive Tarnish Control Formula," said Dorfman.
Dazzle Drops Products Features
Dazzle Drops Advanced Jewelry Cleaner and Dazzle Drops Silver Jewelry Cleaner come with an attractive acrylic Cleansing/Rinsing Container, a larger size, easy-grip Jewelry Cleaning Brush and a more ergonomic Dipping Scoop to lower jewelry into the Cleansing/Rinsing Container.
Both formulas are non-toxic and easy to use...and gentle on expensive manicures.
Diamond Dazzle Stik(TM): A Jewelry Cleaning Classic in a Bold, New Package
Diamond Dazzle Stik, the popular forerunner of the Connoisseurs Dazzle Collection, comes in a sleek new package in a palette of Connoisseurs Classic Red and Icy Blue.
Loved by millions for its "twist, brush and dazzle" ease of use, this portable jewelry cleaning wand -- now longer lasting -- fits perfectly in a purse or cosmetics bag, so it's easy to keep your diamond rings sparkling.

Signal Hound Introduces Free EMC Precompliance Tools in Spike(TM)

Signal Hound Introduces Free EMC Precompliance Tools in Spike(TM)
LA CENTER, Wash., May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Signal Hound adds an EMC Precompliance Tool Suite to the rich set of measurement features already available in Signal Hound's FREE real-time spectrum analysis software, Spike. The new EMC precompliance features of Spike enable the USB-powered real time spectrum analyzer, the BB60C, to be used as a professional-grade EMC precompliance analyzer. The EMC precompliance tools are included in Spike 3.1.0, available as a free download at https://signalhound.com/spike on Monday, May 30(th), 2016.
https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160520/370546
Complete with quasi-peak detector, bar meter plots, spur tables, custom frequency sweeps, path loss tables, and antenna factor tables for test calibration, Spike 3.1.0 provides a sophisticated and cost-effective EMC precompliance solution when coupled with Signal Hound's BB60C real time spectrum analyzer and EMC Probes.
Spike Real-Time Spectrum Analysis Software Augmented with Easy-To-Use EMC Precompliance Tools
The United States FCC and CE mark of Europe require the passing of stringent, specific standards for all legally distributed electronic equipment. Prior to expensive EMC compliance testing, many companies choose the safer route of incorporating EMC precompliance in their design process. This ultimately avoids costly and time consuming redesign experienced when EMC compliance test failures occur in late-stage design.
With this latest release of Spike, version 3.1.0, Signal Hound endeavors to provide an alternative to costly and complicated EMC precompliance tools available on the market. Now equipped with extremely fast and easy-to-set-up EMC precompliance tools, far-field sweeps and near-field probing can all be performed with a Signal Hound BB60C and the appropriate antenna and probe tools. With an intuitive user interface, the displays for common EMC precompliance setups, such as a CISPR 16-1-1 or ANSI C63.2 dictated frequency sweeps, can be rapidly selected and easily configured for the appropriate RBW, bandwidth, and frequency range settings for a particular standard.
About Signal Hound and Spike
Signal Hound products allow professionals developing, testing, or deploying wireless monitoring, telecommunication, IoT, and M2M systems to benefit from low-cost, high-value performance instruments.

Fingertips Lab Unveils O6, The World's First 'No Looking Required' Personal Mobile Interface
Poster: SySAdmin
Posted on May 24, 2016 at 9:28:01 AM
Fingertips Lab Unveils O6, The World's First 'No Looking Required' Personal Mobile Interface
Multimodal Dial Allows Consumers to Access Content and Control Apps without Looking at or Touching a Screen; Available for Pre-Order Today
SAN FRANCISCO, May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Fingertips Lab today announced pre-order availability of its personal mobile interface O6. An all-access controller for the mobile lifestyle, O6 connects seamlessly via Bluetooth to any iPhone, allowing users to browse, operate and toggle between virtually every app and platform at the touch of a finger and completely eyes-free.
An all-metal rotary bezel dial featuring textured touchpad buttons and motion-sensors, O6 represents an entirely new paradigm of device input and control, combining both hardware and software to power a far more accurate and responsive experience than voice command-based programs. O6 lets users access content and control apps solely through touch and gestures to remotely open, browse and listen, and respond to text and email messages, news, social posts, music and more in real-time.
By combining the O6 device with its dashboard app, users can experience life in stereo mode. The O6 app displays a lineup of apps on a user's iPhone including email, podcasts and Twitter as 'channels' and all corresponding content as 'tracks,' dynamically updating all in real time. And if the content includes hyperlinks, the O6 app will automatically fetch and extract the content to audio or convert it to speech for a seamless experience.
"We conceived and built O6 from the ground up by reimagining the design and interaction of all mobile applications for a completely eyes-free experience," said P.K. Mishra, CEO, Fingertips Lab. "O6 allows people to stay connected and engaged with their devices while being present and alert to the environment around them."
Designed to function intuitively, O6 allows for complete non-visual and even one-handed control. Utilizing patent-pending mechanical architecture, the O6 lets users operate the novel rotary-command dial utilizing tactile ridges and embedded buttons without the need to orient the device. O6 also includes the use of different voices, audio cues, intonations and sounds to convey structure through audio in ways previously not possible. Utilizing artificial intelligence, the dashboard app analyzes content to automatically recommend relevant, contextual actions.
"O6 ushers in a new era of device control that's beneficial for anyone who uses a smartphone on a daily basis," said Mishra. "After examining the risks associated with distracted driving and careless commuting as well as the accessibility challenges of the visually impaired, we knew there had to be a better way to interact with smartphones by breaking the dependence on visual cues and interactions."
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that at any given daylight moment, 660,000 drivers handle smartphones and manipulate electronic devices. The National Safety Council reported that motor-vehicle deaths increased to 18,600 in the first six months of 2015, up 14 percent over 2014, with the uptick being partially attributed to driver distraction due to smartphones. O6 enables users to stay connected as easily and safely as listening to radio by keeping their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.
The O6 product line includes a selection of easily interchangeable accessories that allow it to be mounted on a steering wheel, worn on the wrist or clipped to a pocket or belt. It facilitates single-handed - or even single-fingered - operation so it can be used while mounted in an accessory, lying on a flat surface or simply grasped in the hand.
Pricing and Availability
O6 is now available for pre-order in limited quantities at super early-bird and early-bird prices of $89 and $99. The O6 will ship in February 2017, with a suggested retail price of $149. Accessories are sold separately.
About Fingertips Lab
Founded in 2014 with the mission to make technology more usable to more people, in more settings, Fingertips Lab launched its flagship product line O6 to transform the way people interact with smartphones while staying present and engaged in life. Fingertips Lab is based in San Francisco. For more information, please visit http://www.O6app.com.

"We conceived and built O6 from the ground up by reimagining the design and interaction of all mobile applications for a completely eyes-free experience," said P.K. Mishra, CEO, Fingertips Lab. "O6 allows people to stay connected and engaged with their devices while being present and alert to the environment around them."
Designed to function intuitively, O6 allows for complete non-visual and even one-handed control. Utilizing patent-pending mechanical architecture, the O6 lets users operate the novel rotary-command dial utilizing tactile ridges and embedded buttons without the need to orient the device. O6 also includes the use of different voices, audio cues, intonations and sounds to convey structure through audio in ways previously not possible. Utilizing artificial intelligence, the dashboard app analyzes content to automatically recommend relevant, contextual actions.
"O6 ushers in a new era of device control that's beneficial for anyone who uses a smartphone on a daily basis," said Mishra. "After examining the risks associated with distracted driving and careless commuting as well as the accessibility challenges of the visually impaired, we knew there had to be a better way to interact with smartphones by breaking the dependence on visual cues and interactions."
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that at any given daylight moment, 660,000 drivers handle smartphones and manipulate electronic devices. The National Safety Council reported that motor-vehicle deaths increased to 18,600 in the first six months of 2015, up 14 percent over 2014, with the uptick being partially attributed to driver distraction due to smartphones. O6 enables users to stay connected as easily and safely as listening to radio by keeping their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.
The O6 product line includes a selection of easily interchangeable accessories that allow it to be mounted on a steering wheel, worn on the wrist or clipped to a pocket or belt. It facilitates single-handed - or even single-fingered - operation so it can be used while mounted in an accessory, lying on a flat surface or simply grasped in the hand.
Pricing and Availability
O6 is now available for pre-order in limited quantities at super early-bird and early-bird prices of $89 and $99. The O6 will ship in February 2017, with a suggested retail price of $149. Accessories are sold separately.
About Fingertips Lab
Founded in 2014 with the mission to make technology more usable to more people, in more settings, Fingertips Lab launched its flagship product line O6 to transform the way people interact with smartphones while staying present and engaged in life. Fingertips Lab is based in San Francisco. For more information, please visit http://www.O6app.com.

SpaceFace Releases "Worlds Apart | A SpaceFace Odyssey"
The new Science fiction, adventure and romance tale book will entertain both the young male and female adult in a fantastic way
WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/-- Science fiction and adventure books can allow readers delve into the infinite wonders of the universe by experiencing its thrills, frills, and chills. This is possible since these books will grab its readers' attention, hurl them far beyond the boundaries of their limited world, making them step into other times and places while they relax in the safety and coziness of their home. These reasons are making many young individuals consider reading such of these books, but they are perplexed about choosing the entertaining ones since so many abound in the market.

That concern should be dispelled by "Worlds Apart | A SpaceFace Odyssey" (http://www.spaceface.com), a Science fiction, adventure, and romance tale written by the SpaceFace team. The team includes Scott A. Kudler: an attorney with a background in Art and David Garber: a writer/producer of network TV. The all-new book, which will be entertaining both the male and female young adults, is already hitting the online stores everywhere.
David provides a summary of "Worlds Apart | A SpaceFace Odyssey" and how readers will fall under its spell since it promises to be entertaining:
"The adventure begins at a family thanksgiving gathering... College junior Clayton Gaines unexpectedly was caught between two worlds where he must fight inner and outer demons or be lost forever. His desperate life becomes a living, breathing, video game existence, lacking only a reset button. The twenty-something quickly finds out he is surrounded by death as well as romance and soon ends up drawn into a love triangle with an attractive female intelligence agent and the young, charismatic, crowned prince of a foreign land. Facing a devastating invasion of unfathomable creatures and torn with sensual passions greater than he ever imagined, Clayton is forced into a fight for his life. Danger and passion run high in a place where the rules keep changing."
To allow readers embark on an epic adventure while they read, a hidden code has been added to the book for them to break. Those with eagle eyes, imaginative minds, and a knack for solving puzzles will be rewarded with a prize -- "Easter Egg" for breaking the code. In essence, "Worlds Apart | A SpaceFace Odyssey" is two books in one: a highly imaginative journey with twists and humor while also being a cipher woven within the tapestry of modern storytelling.
"Worlds Apart | A SpaceFace Odyssey" is available in both the ebook and print format on Amazon (https://goo.gl/fG7tXn) Barnes & Noble (http://goo.gl/TzOG8e) and other selected resellers at an exclusive rate. Currently, the book is being translated into Spanish to make more readers have easy access to it. Both Garber and Kudler are currently creating the next phase of the brand, which will be an entertaining casual mobile game.
About SpaceFace
SpaceFace is the brainchild of visionary Scott A. Kudler, an attorney with a background in Art. During his post-graduate years, Scott's path crossed with Jim Gaines, a renowned artist. Their association led to a series of character creations, which became the basis for the heroes and villains that populate the SpaceFace universe. After a lengthy search, Kudler chose to enlist the story and gaming talents of David Garber, a writer/producer of network TV.

Peregrine Semiconductor Broadens MPAC Product Family to Support High Frequency Beamforming

Peregrine Semiconductor Broadens MPAC Product Family to Support High Frequency Beamforming
Extending from 8 to 12 GHz, the UltraCMOS® PE19601 MPAC-Beamforming Device Is Ideal for X-Band Radar Applications
SAN FRANCISCO, May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- IMS 2016 - In booth #2129 Peregrine Semiconductor Corp., founder of RF SOI (silicon on insulator) and pioneer of advanced RF solutions, introduces the UltraCMOS® PE19601, a monolithic phase and amplitude controller (MPAC) solution for beamforming. This new MPAC-Beamforming device covers a frequency range of 8 to 12 GHz, and it expands Peregrine's MPAC product family into higher frequencies. The PE19601 is designed for X-band radar applications including active electronically scanned array (AESA) weather, air-traffic control and military radar.
"Peregrine has shifted the paradigm in high frequency design," says Kinana Hussain, director of marketing at Peregrine Semiconductor. "With products like the PE19601, Peregrine has proved that RF SOI can deliver a high-performing, reliable and integrated solution at high frequencies. As the demand for high frequency applications increases, Peregrine will continue to support the future of communications with intelligently integrated solutions, like the MPAC portfolio."
Peregrine's MPAC product family showcases the intelligent integration capabilities of UltraCMOS technology. Intelligent integration is the seamless integration of RF, digital and analog components on a single chip. The PE19601 MPAC-Beamforming solution integrates a digital step attenuator, a phase shifter, RX/TX switching and a digital serial interface on a monolithic die. Through intelligent integration, the PE19601 seamlessly combines RF and analog processing with digital programmability to deliver the flexibility to tune gain and phase at fine resolution.
Peregrine's UltraCMOS technology platform also offers high reliability, repeatability and industry-leading linearity. High linearity is critical to enabling high-dynamic range, high-sensitivity radar. High-dynamic range is the radar's ability to receive a wide range of signal strengths and levels. This means the radar can be more accurate because it can detect weaker return signals. High linearity improves the sensitivity of the radar and enables the radar to better detect small objects in cluttered environments.
Ideal for high density, compact arrays, the PE19601 delivers the fine resolution and degree of control that is critical for radar applications. Radar's intelligent arrays can be optimized through increased accuracy and resolution. This performance optimization can occur within the fundamental beam pattern or by reducing unwanted interferers. When the phase accuracy and resolution of the array is low, the directionality of the beam is also low. Increasing the phase accuracy and resolution improves the directionality and the ability to focus the signal. Further fine-tuning the phase relationships of all the elements in an array can create nulling effects. These nulling effects can be leveraged to mitigate effects of interferers and help reduce the level of interference generated. The PE19601 allows for the precise and fine control of a beam's key characteristics.
Features, Packaging, Price and Availability
The PE19601 is an X-band MPAC-Beamforming device. It covers a frequency range of 8 to 12 GHz and has an extended frequency range of 6 to 14 GHz. Offered as a bare wirebond die, this MPAC-Beamforming product has high linearity of greater than 40 dBm IIP3 and high isolation of 50 dB. It delivers high power handling of 17 dBm and exhibits low power consumption of 0.001 mA. The PE19601 contains a 6-bit digital step attenuator (DSA), a 6-bit or 10-bit digital phase shifter (DPS), RX/TX switching and a digital serial interface. The DSA covers a 31.5 dB attenuation range in a 0.5 dB step with a low RMS amplitude error of 0.2 dB. The phase shifter has a 360-degree phase range with a very fine resolution of 5 degrees and RMS phase error of 2 degrees. The PE19601 maintains high attenuation and phase accuracy over frequency and temperature.
Samples and evaluation kits with software are available now. Volume production units will be available in summer 2016. Offered as a 2.6 x 4.65 mm die, the PE19601 is $39.60 each for 1k-quantity orders and $32.12 each for 5k-quantity orders.

Extending from 8 to 12 GHz, the UltraCMOS® PE19601 MPAC-Beamforming Device Is Ideal for X-Band Radar Applications
SAN FRANCISCO, May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- IMS 2016 - In booth #2129 Peregrine Semiconductor Corp., founder of RF SOI (silicon on insulator) and pioneer of advanced RF solutions, introduces the UltraCMOS® PE19601, a monolithic phase and amplitude controller (MPAC) solution for beamforming. This new MPAC-Beamforming device covers a frequency range of 8 to 12 GHz, and it expands Peregrine's MPAC product family into higher frequencies. The PE19601 is designed for X-band radar applications including active electronically scanned array (AESA) weather, air-traffic control and military radar.
"Peregrine has shifted the paradigm in high frequency design," says Kinana Hussain, director of marketing at Peregrine Semiconductor. "With products like the PE19601, Peregrine has proved that RF SOI can deliver a high-performing, reliable and integrated solution at high frequencies. As the demand for high frequency applications increases, Peregrine will continue to support the future of communications with intelligently integrated solutions, like the MPAC portfolio."
Peregrine's MPAC product family showcases the intelligent integration capabilities of UltraCMOS technology. Intelligent integration is the seamless integration of RF, digital and analog components on a single chip. The PE19601 MPAC-Beamforming solution integrates a digital step attenuator, a phase shifter, RX/TX switching and a digital serial interface on a monolithic die. Through intelligent integration, the PE19601 seamlessly combines RF and analog processing with digital programmability to deliver the flexibility to tune gain and phase at fine resolution.
Peregrine's UltraCMOS technology platform also offers high reliability, repeatability and industry-leading linearity. High linearity is critical to enabling high-dynamic range, high-sensitivity radar. High-dynamic range is the radar's ability to receive a wide range of signal strengths and levels. This means the radar can be more accurate because it can detect weaker return signals. High linearity improves the sensitivity of the radar and enables the radar to better detect small objects in cluttered environments.
Ideal for high density, compact arrays, the PE19601 delivers the fine resolution and degree of control that is critical for radar applications. Radar's intelligent arrays can be optimized through increased accuracy and resolution. This performance optimization can occur within the fundamental beam pattern or by reducing unwanted interferers. When the phase accuracy and resolution of the array is low, the directionality of the beam is also low. Increasing the phase accuracy and resolution improves the directionality and the ability to focus the signal. Further fine-tuning the phase relationships of all the elements in an array can create nulling effects. These nulling effects can be leveraged to mitigate effects of interferers and help reduce the level of interference generated. The PE19601 allows for the precise and fine control of a beam's key characteristics.
Features, Packaging, Price and Availability
The PE19601 is an X-band MPAC-Beamforming device. It covers a frequency range of 8 to 12 GHz and has an extended frequency range of 6 to 14 GHz. Offered as a bare wirebond die, this MPAC-Beamforming product has high linearity of greater than 40 dBm IIP3 and high isolation of 50 dB. It delivers high power handling of 17 dBm and exhibits low power consumption of 0.001 mA. The PE19601 contains a 6-bit digital step attenuator (DSA), a 6-bit or 10-bit digital phase shifter (DPS), RX/TX switching and a digital serial interface. The DSA covers a 31.5 dB attenuation range in a 0.5 dB step with a low RMS amplitude error of 0.2 dB. The phase shifter has a 360-degree phase range with a very fine resolution of 5 degrees and RMS phase error of 2 degrees. The PE19601 maintains high attenuation and phase accuracy over frequency and temperature.
Samples and evaluation kits with software are available now. Volume production units will be available in summer 2016. Offered as a 2.6 x 4.65 mm die, the PE19601 is $39.60 each for 1k-quantity orders and $32.12 each for 5k-quantity orders.

Cirrent Launches Automatic Internet Connection Service for Smart Wi-Fi Products
Company Simplifies and Secures Connected Products and the Internet of Things
SAN MATEO, Calif., May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --Today marks the availability of Cirrent, the new way to connect any smart, connected product to the Internet automatically and securely. Cirrent's service enables connected products--such as home thermostats and televisions--to connect to the Internet automatically and securely, right out of the box.
https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160523/371251LOGO
With more things on the Internet than people, it's predicted there will be 30 billion devices online by 2020--ranging from sprinkler systems to teddy bears. In fact, approximately 88% of consumer electronic devices shipped in 2015 were Internet-enabled. Before Cirrent, the setup process for most connected products involved multiple steps, confusing passwords, and in more than 20% of cases, consumers failing to connect their "smart" products to the Internet at all (source: Accenture). The difficulty of getting products connected to Wi-Fi is a fundamental barrier to the adoption of connected products, and results in lost sales, high support costs, and high returns. Cirrent addresses these issues head on by making products secure, reliable, and easy to use, which adds directly to the bottom line of the product companies.
Today, Cirrent is teaming with broadband providers in the U.S. and Western Europe who have created millions of home hotspots which provide a separate, secure Wi-Fi connection that is managed independently of the subscriber's private network. Cirrent helps companies that make Wi-Fi connected products use these hotspots to connect their products automatically.
Cirrent not only makes it easier for connected product manufacturers to connect their products to the Internet, it also improves security. Many connected products have security weaknesses that leave home Wi-Fi networks vulnerable to being hacked. In fact, 47% of households with broadband Wi-Fi express privacy or security concerns about at least one smart home device (source: Parks Associates). Cirrent provides multiple levels of security and enables products to connect to Wi-Fi outside of a customer's private network, keeping personal data safe.
Cirrent was founded by "Internet of Things" veteran Rob Conant, who was previously CMO at Trilliant, a smart grid communications company. Before that, Conant co founded an early leader in the Internet of Things, Dust Networks, which was acquired by Linear Technologies in 2011. The technical team is led by CTO Barbara Nelson, who joined Cirrent from iPass where she ran product development and operations.
The difficulty of getting consumer products connected to the Internet really hit home for Conant when he helped his Mother-in-law install her new printer in 2014. "There were six possible ways for her to connect the printer to her home Wi-Fi network, and multiple complicated passwords. It was much harder than it needed to be," said Conant. "That's when I came up with the idea for Cirrent. Getting consumer products connected to the Internet has always been a challenge and a major sticking point for manufacturers. I founded Cirrent to solve this problem, and help companies create products that seamlessly connect without trading off security for ease of use, so people can confidently enjoy their products right out of the box."
About Cirrent
Founded in 2014 and located in San Mateo, California, Cirrent's mission is to make Internet connected products simple and secure for mainstream consumers, and to make it easy for product companies to add value by connecting their products to the Internet.

TruTag Technologies announces pilot project with LACMA
Art meets technology: security platform will tag 200 pieces in a traveling exhibit
EMERYVILLE, Calif., May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- TruTag Technologies has announced today that Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) will implement the TruTag® security platform in its traveling exhibition "Forces of Nature: Divinity and the Arts of the Ancient Maya," opening 2017 in China and continuing on an international tour. LACMA is the first museum of its kind to adopt the TruTag security platform ("TruTags®") for identification and inventory control of artwork.
Experience the interactive Multimedia News Release here:
http://www.multivu.com/players/English/7844651-trutag-lacma-security-platform/
TruTag Technologies, Inc. is a leader in product authentication, brand security, and data intelligence solutions. Millions of optical patterns can be embedded into a TruTag®, a dust-sized particle smaller than the width of a human hair. TruTags® are inert, covert, and can integrate into the very fabric of a product without packaging or labels - much like fingerprints on a human being - for the authentication and assurance of provenance of some of the world's most valuable and life mission critical goods. For "Forces of Nature," LACMA will take 200 pieces on the road with TruTags® to provide inventory control during the collection's travel.
The opening of "Forces of Nature" will fall on the 50-year anniversary of another intersection of art and tech for LACMA: their groundbreaking 1967 exhibition "Art and Technology," which partnered artists like Andy Warhol, John Chamberlain and Robert Rauschenberg with pioneering tech companies. Half a century later, TruTag's pilot project with LACMA reflects the museum's long dedication to new frontiers of technology.
"We are delighted to be working with one of the most progressive and innovative museums in the world. The intersection of art and technology is a canvas that will be painted with amazing discoveries for the future," said Hank Wuh, MD, MPH, Chairman of TruTag Technologies.
"We look forward to partnering with TruTag as we test this unique tracking technology," said Nancy Thomas, LACMA's Deputy Director, "LACMA has a long tradition of promoting the alliance of art and technology, which creates exciting new frontiers."
"This is a technology that is a game changer for the world of art and collectibles," said Mark Blackburn, whose collection catalogue, The Mark and Carolyn Blackburn Collection of Polynesian Art, is authored by scholar Dr. Adrienne Kaeppler of the Smithsonian Institution. "The importance of TruTags® for museums, collectors, galleries, free ports, and most importantly living artists is beyond measure. I am really excited by the infinite possibilities."

LG's Highly Anticipated 2016 OLED TV Line Launches At U.S. Retail

LG's Highly Anticipated 2016 OLED TV Line Launches At U.S. Retail
Four New Series, Including Just-Launched B6 and C6, Deliver Awe-Inspiring Picture Quality, Advanced Features Including HDR, Stunning Design
ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics USA today announced pricing and availability for its 2016 OLED TV line, including the newly launched flat-panel B6 and curved-panel C6 series OLED TVs, which join the already released LG SIGNATURE OLED G6 and LG OLED E6 series available at leading retailers nationwide.
https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160523/371099
The entire 2016 LG OLED line of 4K Ultra HD Smart TVs deliver the stunning picture quality and advanced technologies of OLED: perfect blacks, improved brightness, expanded color, and amazing picture even at wide viewing angles. Each of the eight models also delivers a complete high dynamic range (HDR) experience for images that come to life with support for both Dolby Vision(TM) and HDR10 with "Ultra HD Premium" certification by the UHD Alliance.
"LG OLED TVs' reputation for having the best picture available is backed by TV experts, Academy Award-winning directors and consumers alike - and the ultimate home entertainment experience is even better with new enhancements like HDR," said David VanderWaal, vice president of marketing, LG Electronics USA. "Our 2016 OLED TVs combine our most advanced TV technologies with future-forward, stunning designs to elevate the TV experience to an entirely new level. And now, with two HDR formats, content has never looked more immersive or more lifelike."
LG OLED TVs consistently bring viewers what TV experts have called the best picture quality available, and the entire 2016 line lives up to that billing. Thanks to OLED technology's unique ability to turn each pixel on or completely off, LG OLED TVs produce perfect blacks and flawlessly render crisp, vibrant colors and rich shadow details, even when bright objects are directly next to deep, dark areas (unlike LCD TVs, which have a halo effect from light bleeding). With 10-bit panels and 10-bit processing power, LG OLED TVs can render more than a billion possible color variations - another reason that Academy Award-winning directors are recognizing the power of LG OLED TV, noting that nothing can compare to the technology when it comes to accurately portraying the original cinematic intent.
Along with a wider color gamut, LG OLED TVs can display the finest details of color and gradation. What's better is that OLED's incomparable picture quality holds up even from wide viewing angles so everyone can appreciate its color and clarity from any seat in the house. The same cannot be said for most LCD TVs, which suffer from color washout and lower contrast when off-axis.
LG OLED TVs are defined not only by their amazing picture quality, but also by elegant design. Across all four series, the TVs' bezels are extraordinarily narrow and the OLED panel is so slim that it transforms the TV into a stunning design feature that will enhance the look of any room. The LG SIGNATURE OLED TV's "Picture on Glass" sets new benchmarks in aesthetic design with an exceptionally thin depth (measuring about one-tenth of an inch), a translucent glass back and a powerful, forward-facing sound bar that doubles as a unique stand for a seemingly invisible bezel and stand. The new E6 series also boasts an ultra-slim profile with a similar "Picture-on-Glass" aesthetic and traditional yet elegant stand.
HDR Done Right
LG OLED TVs provide an unrivaled HDR experience with images that look more real, with more perceived depth and crisper, more vibrant color. By starting from perfect black - which only OLED can achieve - LG OLED TVs are able to produce the required light ranges for HDR at a lower peak brightness, resulting in an exceptional, comfortable HDR viewing experience.
All 2016 OLED TVs, along with LG SUPER UHD LED TVs, support both industry-standard HDR formats established by the world's leading broadcasters, film studios and consumer electronics manufacturers. Not only does the entire 2016 LG OLED lineup include HDR10 backed by the "Ultra HD Premium" certification from the UHD Alliance, but every OLED also features Dolby Vision technology for an enhanced HDR experience.
Dolby Vision content boasts superior color accuracy and uses dynamic metadata to adjust color, contrast and brightness on a scene-by-scene basis. Perhaps most importantly, Dolby Vision technology's mapping engine will ensure content is optimized for the TV's specifications rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach to ensure an excellent experience.
"Dolby Vision supports and builds on top of HDR10 to bring images to life on LG OLED and LG SUPER UHD TVs with a combination of brighter highlights, increased contrast, ultra-vivid colors and sharper details," said Roland Vlaicu, Dolby Laboratories vice president, consumer imaging. "Dolby Vision is already the preferred format for filmmakers and content providers with all seven major movie studios supporting the creation and release of Dolby Vision movies in the cinema and many streaming content providers defaulting to Dolby Vision as the preferred HDR format for the home."
LG OLED and SUPER UHD TVs are the first TVs to be compatible with both core HDR formats. This is important for consumers because it assures access to all the HDR content available today and peace of mind that their TV will handle new content to come. Already, leading streaming content partners like Netflix, Amazon Video(®) and VUDU(®) offer premium HDR content and have announced aggressive plans to expand their content libraries with new titles available in Dolby Vision HDR. In fact, Netflix will deliver more than 150 hours of HDR content by the end of the year, including popular titles such as Marvel's Daredevil and Marvel's Jessica Jones. Amazon Video also will deliver 150 hours of HDR content by the end of the year. Titles available today in HDR include Amazon Original Series like The Man in the High Castle, Transparent and Mozart in the Jungle, with more titles, including those in Dolby Vision HDR, coming soon. VUDU currently offers a variety of titles in Dolby Vision HDR and is expanding its offering. LG OLED and SUPER UHD TVs will offer access to VUDU titles in Dolby Vision HDR this summer.
A Modern User Interface
All LG OLED TV models come with the latest generation of LG's acclaimed webOS Smart TV platform. LG's webOS 3.0 adds advanced new features to make finding and switching between content options - including broadcast TV, streaming services and external devices - simple and fast. With enhanced mobile connectivity, remote features and more content options, LG webOS 3.0 makes it even simpler and more fun than ever for users to find and enjoy the content they want to watch.
The 2016 LG OLED TV line comprises four series (B6, C6, E6 and LG SIGNATURE G6) with eight models ranging from 55-, 65- and 77-inches class sizes as well as curved and flat configurations. All series are now available at retailers nationwide:

With 10-bit panels and 10-bit processing power, LG OLED TVs can render more than a billion possible color variations - another reason that Academy Award-winning directors are recognizing the power of LG OLED TV, noting that nothing can compare to the technology when it comes to accurately portraying the original cinematic intent.
Along with a wider color gamut, LG OLED TVs can display the finest details of color and gradation. What's better is that OLED's incomparable picture quality holds up even from wide viewing angles so everyone can appreciate its color and clarity from any seat in the house. The same cannot be said for most LCD TVs, which suffer from color washout and lower contrast when off-axis.
LG OLED TVs are defined not only by their amazing picture quality, but also by elegant design. Across all four series, the TVs' bezels are extraordinarily narrow and the OLED panel is so slim that it transforms the TV into a stunning design feature that will enhance the look of any room. The LG SIGNATURE OLED TV's "Picture on Glass" sets new benchmarks in aesthetic design with an exceptionally thin depth (measuring about one-tenth of an inch), a translucent glass back and a powerful, forward-facing sound bar that doubles as a unique stand for a seemingly invisible bezel and stand. The new E6 series also boasts an ultra-slim profile with a similar "Picture-on-Glass" aesthetic and traditional yet elegant stand.
HDR Done Right
LG OLED TVs provide an unrivaled HDR experience with images that look more real, with more perceived depth and crisper, more vibrant color. By starting from perfect black - which only OLED can achieve - LG OLED TVs are able to produce the required light ranges for HDR at a lower peak brightness, resulting in an exceptional, comfortable HDR viewing experience.
All 2016 OLED TVs, along with LG SUPER UHD LED TVs, support both industry-standard HDR formats established by the world's leading broadcasters, film studios and consumer electronics manufacturers. Not only does the entire 2016 LG OLED lineup include HDR10 backed by the "Ultra HD Premium" certification from the UHD Alliance, but every OLED also features Dolby Vision technology for an enhanced HDR experience.
Dolby Vision content boasts superior color accuracy and uses dynamic metadata to adjust color, contrast and brightness on a scene-by-scene basis. Perhaps most importantly, Dolby Vision technology's mapping engine will ensure content is optimized for the TV's specifications rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach to ensure an excellent experience.
"Dolby Vision supports and builds on top of HDR10 to bring images to life on LG OLED and LG SUPER UHD TVs with a combination of brighter highlights, increased contrast, ultra-vivid colors and sharper details," said Roland Vlaicu, Dolby Laboratories vice president, consumer imaging. "Dolby Vision is already the preferred format for filmmakers and content providers with all seven major movie studios supporting the creation and release of Dolby Vision movies in the cinema and many streaming content providers defaulting to Dolby Vision as the preferred HDR format for the home."
LG OLED and SUPER UHD TVs are the first TVs to be compatible with both core HDR formats. This is important for consumers because it assures access to all the HDR content available today and peace of mind that their TV will handle new content to come. Already, leading streaming content partners like Netflix, Amazon Video(®) and VUDU(®) offer premium HDR content and have announced aggressive plans to expand their content libraries with new titles available in Dolby Vision HDR. In fact, Netflix will deliver more than 150 hours of HDR content by the end of the year, including popular titles such as Marvel's Daredevil and Marvel's Jessica Jones. Amazon Video also will deliver 150 hours of HDR content by the end of the year. Titles available today in HDR include Amazon Original Series like The Man in the High Castle, Transparent and Mozart in the Jungle, with more titles, including those in Dolby Vision HDR, coming soon. VUDU currently offers a variety of titles in Dolby Vision HDR and is expanding its offering. LG OLED and SUPER UHD TVs will offer access to VUDU titles in Dolby Vision HDR this summer.
A Modern User Interface
All LG OLED TV models come with the latest generation of LG's acclaimed webOS Smart TV platform. LG's webOS 3.0 adds advanced new features to make finding and switching between content options - including broadcast TV, streaming services and external devices - simple and fast. With enhanced mobile connectivity, remote features and more content options, LG webOS 3.0 makes it even simpler and more fun than ever for users to find and enjoy the content they want to watch.
The 2016 LG OLED TV line comprises four series (B6, C6, E6 and LG SIGNATURE G6) with eight models ranging from 55-, 65- and 77-inches class sizes as well as curved and flat configurations. All series are now available at retailers nationwide:

Symbolic IO Emerges From Stealth; Surpasses Promise Of 3D XPoint
Former HP Storage CTO Launches First Computational-Defined Storage Solution
NEW YORK, May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Symbolic IO(TM) emerged from stealth mode with a suite of products destined to change the way industry defines storage and computing architecture, by bringing to market the first truly computational-defined storage solution. The company's product, named IRIS(TM) (the Intensified RAM Intelligent Server), will be offered in three variations: IRIS Compute, IRIS Vault and IRIS Store. The server solution introduces a new approach to storage and computing by rethinking how binary bits are processed and ultimately changing the way data is utilized. Symbolic's solutions ensure that enterprise storage and compute no longer rely on media or hardware, instead "materializing" and "dematerializing" data in real-time and providing greater flexibility, performance and security.
"We have been testing IRIS in our organization and it's completely changing the way we see storage and computing," said Will Prince, Vice President Operations, MetTel. "Our prior system would take minutes to run advanced database queries, IRIS is completing the queries in seconds, in initial beta tests. The IRIS solution isn't only the fastest product we've used, but it eliminates very real challenges for our organization, including data creep, duplication of data and it is creating one place for management workflow. It's giving us computational power and speed in a very dense hardware footprint."
How it Works
Symbolic IO's proprietary operating system, SymCE(TM) is dependent solely on the power of the processor, therefore, it is truly media agnostic, enhancing the underlying media's density and performance, beyond anything previously conceived by traditional manufacturers. The proprietary technology is based on patented algorithms that work seamlessly with the current workflow and instruction sets, allowing for an easy implementation and zero downtime. In addition the solution is the most secure offering today, given the operating system is a conversion engine converting any data into a new sub-state, rendering the information useless to anyone else other than the systems owner, given it's not stored.
"This industry hasn't really innovated in more than 20 years, even the latest offerings based on Flash have limitations that cannot be overcome. Our goal at Symbolic IO was to completely redefine and rethink the way computing architectures work. We've completely changed how binary is handled and reinvented the way it's processed, which goes way beyond the industry's current excitement for hyper-conversion," said Brian Ignomirello, Founder & CEO, Symbolic IO. "One of our early tests, allows us to run a full cable class content delivery network over 80+ nodes, while streaming 80+ full-featured movies simultaneously on one channel and requires less than 8% of the CPU capacity and we had plenty of headroom to run more. IRIS is 10,000 times faster than today's Flash."
Offerings:
IRIS(TM) Compute delivers the fastest, unparalleled processing performance, 10 times faster than 3D XPoint.
IRIS(TM) Vault delivers computationally secure, unrecognizable data, and crypto shred and lock out features. It offers physical security with Symbolic's advanced ASIC and sensory technology, which features a secure shipment and other features.
IRIS(TM) Store offers the greatest density of any storage device, by consistently surpassing one petabyte in 2U.
IRIS, the company's first product, has been beta tested and will be in early access production with customers, prior to a limited general availability release in late Q4 2016. The product will be based on a build cost structure with beginning units starting at approximately $80K and going up depending on features.
About Symbolic IO
Symbolic IO is the first computational defined storage solution solely focused on advanced computational algorithmic compute engine, which materializes and dematerializes data - effectively becoming the fastest, most dense, portable and secure, media and hardware agnostic - storage solution.
The company was founded in 2012 by Brian Ignomirello, the former CTO of Hewlett Packard's Global storage team, in an effort to transform the current enterprise storage industry from focusing on hardware, cards, chips and processors to embracing the way that big data works today and addressing the challenges facing companies with legacy systems.
Based in Holmdel, NJ in the former Bell Laboratory facility Symbolic IO and its IRIS(TM) product is set to transform enterprise data storage for media, government, healthcare, finance, military and other industries, by allowing traditional storage activities that relied on drives, chips and processors to be media-agnostic and data driven, which results in faster access, more security and decrease in overhead costs.

(IDT) (NASDAQ: IDTI), today introduced a digital variable gain amplifier (VGA) for radio frequency (RF) base stations featuring its new K(LIN)(TM)( )constant linearity technology at the International Microwave Symposium, IMS2016, Moscone Center in San Francisco. With the K(LIN )innovation, the IDT ® F1455 family of high-gain, high-linearity transmitter VGAs maintains a high 38 dBm output third order intercept point (OIP3) for the first 12 dB of gain control range, providing greater dynamic range for the system. The F1455 family of devices is ideally suited to drive power amplifiers in wireless base station transmitters.
https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160523/371136
IDT's K(LIN )technology extends both OIP3 and output 1 dB compression point (P1dBO) amplifier gain settings. This is particularly valuable in transmitter designs where the gain of the device is maintained within a normal gain setting window about 6 dB below maximum gain.
"The F1455 family provides high-reliability, monolithic, QFN-packaged silicon solutions that deliver unique constant high linearity via our new K(LIN )innovation," said Chris Stephens, general manager of IDT's RF division. "These ICs, which replace lower-reliability GaAs-based MCMs, continue IDT's trend of bringing innovative design technology to the markets we serve."
The features of the F1455 include:
-- Broadband 1400 MHz to 2300 MHz operation
-- 32 dB flat, temperature invariant max gain
-- 4 dB NF @ max gain (2000 MHz)
-- 23 dBm P1dBO (constant for first 12 dB of gain reduction)
-- 38 dBm OIP3 (constant for 12 dB gain reduction)
-- 29.5 dB total gain control range, 0.5 dB step
-- SPI interface for gain control
-- All internal matching and biasing
-- High reliability MSL1 package with low thermal resistance
-- Single 5 V supply voltage
Other soon-to-be-released parts in the family cover frequency ranges of 700 MHz to 1100 MHz and 2300 MHz to 3000 MHz.
The F1455 is available in a 6 x 6 mm 28-QFN package, and is sampling now to customers. IDT representatives will be available to discuss K(LIN) and other innovations at IDT's booth number 316 at IMS2016, Moscone Center, May 24 - 26.

Dutch Doctors Launch Revolutionary App to Disrupt and Do Good

Dutch Doctors Launch Revolutionary App to Disrupt and Do Good
AMSTERDAM, May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Dutch surgeons have launched a ground-breaking medical app to help doctors share their
best practices around the world and treat patients on a global scale. Medical
professionals from Europe, Africa, Asia and the US have already signed up for the app,
which combines live streaming with instant messaging and networking in a totally secure
environment.
EducationÂ
"Imagine a doctor for Medicines sans Frontieres in a war zone working together with a
surgeon at Harvard to treat a bomb victim via live streaming - that is what MDLinking
makes possible," says vascular surgeon Hans Flu. Doctor Flu founded the company with
oncological surgeon and former Harvard research fellow in surgery, Gijs van Acker and the
helping hand of a large international medical advisory board. As well as direct, double
encrypted conversations between doctors, the app also gives access to a curated
interactive educational library featuring live streams, training courses, huge volumes of
research and in-house point of view, virtual reality and augmented reality productions.
Sharing knowledgeÂ
Technology is changing the way the world communicates but the specific needs of
doctors - particular confidentiality - have not been properly addressed so far. Research*
shows that doctors and nurses are using existing instant messaging services on a very wide
scale, despite the privacy concerns.
"We believe we can improve global healthcare by linking doctors and healthcare
professionals across the globe, so they can share their medical knowledge in a secure
online environment," says Flu.
MDLinking is already talking to a range of organisations, including medical schools
across the world and charity healthcare organisations such as Partners in Health, the Aga
Khan Development Network and Doctors Without Borders about taking collective medical
knowledge to the five billion people in low income countries with little access to
healthcare.
InvestorsÂ
"The combination of connecting, communicating and educating on a global scale in the
medical field, is what makes MDLinking unique and a very valuable investment opportunity,"
says early stage investor Alec Behrens, who was one of the founders of Booking.com. The
company has already raised EUR2.5m in seed funding from a number of informal investors and
is raising an additional EUR15m in a serie A funding round.
SecurityÂ
Healthcare professionals who want to use the app have to through a tough credentials
check before they will be admitted to the system. The MDLinking app is fully certified by
Deloitte Assuring Medical Apps in line with the rules of the Dutch health ministry and
Dutch privacy watchdog CBP. (More on our security: https://mdlinking.com/security)

loyalty reward he or she is going to select.
"Our vendor had to meet a number of safety requirements. Vertex proved that they can
adapt their technical solutions very quickly to meet them and they offered adequate
pricing. What is more, we have already had a chance to see this company in action during
other projects," states Felipe Echeverri, Product Development & Delivery Director of
Western Union.
The Lithuanian company has been helping Western Union with communication through SMS
messaging since 2012. Until now, it has focused on sending out traditional short messages
to clients of the financial company in 50 countries around the globe.
Vertex will coordinate two-way communication messaging with Western Union offices and
service centers in Lithuania, Italy, and India.
About VertexÂ
Vertex is the largest bulk SMS messaging company in Lithuania. In 2013 it delivered
250 million of short messages and in 2014 this number increased to 350 million. Most of
them were targeted at residents of Middle Eastern, African, Latin American countries,
China and Germany. In 2015 Vertex became the first company in Lithuania which adopted ISO
27001 standard of information security management systems. The company took first place in
Gazele 2015 awards as the fastest growing ICT Company in 2011-2014.

Infortrend Releases New SFF EonStor DS Storage System to Fulfill 2.5" High Performance SAS HDDs Demands
TAIPEI, Taiwan, May 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Infortrend® Technology, Inc. (TWSE: 2495) today released a new small form factor (SFF) storage system "EonStor DS 1036B", designed to fulfill the demands of maximizing performance and efficiency for entry level users of high RPM SAS 2.5" hard disk drives (HDD).
With 2.5" drives vastly overtaking 3.5" 15000RPM SAS drives, entry-level users are facing the challenging of finding replacement systems for the better performance drives support. Infortrend, with its proven track record in high quality SFF storage systems, understands the needs and released their new 3U 36-bay EonStor DS 1036B storage to offer not only better performance with high performance 2.5" SAS drives, but also higher efficiency, lower operating costs since the 3U 36-bay storage system needs less space (footprint) and lower power consumption thanks to its high density SFF system enclosure.
In addition to its performance advantages with 2.5" SAS drives, EonStor DS 1036B also offers great flexibility through its hybrid host interface which provides 16Gb/s or 8Gb/s Fibre Channel, 10Gb/s or 1Gb/s iSCSI and 12Gb/s or 6Gb/s SAS host ports for maximum connectivity, as well as high scalability with support for up to 324 drives via JBOD expansion enclosures.
"Being at the forefront of technological developments in the storage market, developing a greater variety of SFF systems is a key to meet our customers' evolving demands both performance-wise and in terms of efficiency, which we have certainly achieved with EonStor DS 1036B," said Thomas Kao, Senior Director of Product Planning at Infortrend.
