transport, metro Ethernet, fiber optic components, 10GE, out-of-band networking and other optical networking products, today
announced the addition of a new two-degree reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM) module to the LambdaDriver(R)
family of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems. The EM1600-ROADM40 supports a total of 40 C-band DWDM wavelengths
with 100Ghz spacing, with the ability to drop wavelengths at each node. Each module features 40 "colored" add ports,
configurable through the existing LambdaDriver management system, which makes it possible to choose which wavelengths are
added from local ports or, alternatively, passed through from express ports. All 40 wavelengths are monitored for power level,
and every wavelength can be attenuated allowing automatic wavelength equalization at every node in the network. The new module

sites, remote telecom locations, manufacturing facilities and data centers where space, power and remote management are key
issues. When deployed at unstaffed facilities that require lights-out management, the LX 7304 can be used to alert technical
staff to everything from a door opening, to power outages, to fuel levels in a back-up power generator and can manage up
to 128 alarm ports supporting both wet and dry contacts, analog sensors, and control outputs. The device provides access
to locally attached devices via RS-232, Ethernet and/or V.92 modem connections. In addition to the unit's sensor and alarm
management capabilities, the LX 7304 provides remote network connectivity to serially attached devices such as switches,
routers and servers. The device also provides intelligent power management to monitor power utilization, enable/disable outlets,
or to reboot remote devices. Leveraging the industry-leading software features of the LX Series console servers, a number
of security mechanisms including RADIUS, SecurID, TACACS+, SSHv2, SNMPv3, and SSL are supported ensuring secure communications
from any location....

- The latest version of the AV-Comparatives Tests was also won by Avira. In the test categories speed and proactive detection,
Avira leads the field impressively. AV Comparatives is an independent institute that regularly tests the performance of leading
anti-virus software. After Avira had already achieved good results in March,
the
test was continued under new conditions. Since the last comparative test, none of the anti-virus programs has been updated.
At the same time, a lot of malware has accumulated in the last three months. Therefore a whole host of new, unknown viruses,
worms, backdoors and Trojans has appeared. Proactive detection or heuristic is required which is responsible for detecting
unknown viruses.

Minneapolis, MN - The switching and conversion technology
expert, Transition Networks Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Communications Systems Inc. (AMEX: JCS), today announced the
expansion of its family of Power over Ethernet (PoE) products with the addition of two new PoE switches. This expands Transition’s
Milan portfolio of multilayer switching and wireless products, enabling customers to easily supply power to wireless and

- The renowned AV-Test company, based in Magdeburg, tested the most popular anti-virus programs for their detection rate.
Avira AntiVir was clearly the best in its class. The virus protection software of the most renowned providers had to deal
with a wide variety of viruses in the test: over 600,000 Trojans, worms, backdoor programs and bots were let loose on the
test computers, all malware programmed for Windows operating systems, no older than 12 months.
The
test results of the competing virus protectors were very tight, regarding the detection of worms and bots. But when it came
to identification of Trojans, which frequently infiltrate to spy out PINs and passwords, the wheat was separated from the
chaff. In the case of virus protection software, that works with only one engine and therefore requires reduced memory space,
Avira AntiVir clearly took the first place, detecting 99.42% of the malware. Next came the software giants Symantec and Kaspersky...
