Hybricon Corporation Announces its Strategic Affiliation with Mercury Computer Systems Partner Network


AYER, Mass., January 4, 2007 - Hybricon Corporation, the first company to bring computer modeling and simulation of signal integrity to the backplane design and manufacturing industry, is pleased to announce that it has become a proud member of the Mercury Partner Network (MPN). The MPN comprises alliances with a number of leading partners in hardware, software, technology, packaging & systems. It provides the framework for Hybricon and Mercury to work together to drive industry interoperability and solve challenging problems in the areas of embedded C4ISR, defense communications, and homeland security.

"Hybricon has been at the forefront of signal integrity design and analysis for some of the leading technologies in embedded computing," said Robert Levine, Director of Partner Alliances at Mercury Computer Systems, Inc.. "We are very pleased to welcome Hybricon into our family of integrated solutions."

Hybricon has performed Signal Integrity Analysis for the RapidIO Trade Association, which Mercury co-founded, and for the VMEbus International Trade Association (VITA), for which Mercury serves on the board of directors. Hybricon's work has been instrumental in developing many new backplane standards including CompactPCI fabrics, VME 2eSST, and recently, VPX (VITA 46), for which Mercury serves as editor of the standard.

"Joining the Mercury Partner Network unites Hybricon with the VME market leader," reported Bob Sullivan, Chief Technology Officer of Hybricon. "This will allow the two companies to exchange technical information and more effectively collaborate on strategic customer opportunities."

This affiliation brings together two premier defense embedded computing suppliers, who together will excel in enabling their customers to stay at the forefront of the markets they serve. Hybricon's reputation as the industry leader in backplane design complements Mercury's 23-year history of dedication to performance excellence and collaborative innovation, to offer the newest technologies for VME, VME64X, CompactPCI, VXS, and custom bus structures.
