Performance Technologies Launches NexusWare® Portal, a Web-Based Interface for Managing Integrated MicroTCA(TM) Platforms



ROCHESTER, N.Y., Feb. 23 /- Performance Technologies (NASDAQ:PTIX), a leading provider of innovative communications solutions, today announced the availability of NexusWare(R) Portal -- a web-based development and management tool that provides remote management and monitoring of the company's IPnexus(R) MicroTCA(TM) platforms, such as the AMP5070. This robust, application-ready system is comprised of the company's award-winning, 1U MicroTCA platform equipped with an Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo processor running NexusWare, the company's tightly integrated Linux(R) OS and development environment.

The addition of NexusWare Portal to the NexusWare family of software products provides communication systems designers building on MicroTCA platforms, with enhanced system control, development capabilities, as well as serviceability of these solutions via a web-based, graphical user interface (GUI).

"Today's communication equipment developers face significant challenges with platform integration, management, and application development. NexusWare Portal provides features to simplify these challenges in a cost-efficient manner," said Steve Wigent, product manager at Performance Technologies. "The intuitive GUI utilized in NexusWare Portal provides web-based remote access and gives system developers and communication network managers unparalleled access to platform operation, system configuration, and maintenance information. This capability further maximizes system performance and delivers improved efficiencies over the life of these communication systems."

As communication system designers and integrators seek new ways to reduce design costs and quicken time-to-market for new products, Performance Technologies' integrated IPnexus MicroTCA platforms, combined with NexusWare Portal, provides a compelling advantage for these new initiatives. MicroTCA is gaining momentum as a preferred form factor for building next-generation solutions such as wireless and WiMAX equipment, radar access devices, VoIP gateways, communication servers, and other advanced communication systems in telecommunications as well as aerospace and defense applications.

The company will be demonstrating NexusWare Portal and its IPnexus MicroTCA Platforms at the upcoming Embedded Systems Conference Silicon Valley 2009, San Jose, CA (March 31-April 2, 2009, booth 1630).
