Irvine, CA January 17 2004--SMC® Networks (www.smc.com), leading provider of networking solutions for the Enterprise, the SMB and all the way home, today announced its sponsorship of DreamlanSMC, Canadas first major commercial networked gaming event, to be held January 16-18 just outside Quebec City, Quebec at the futuristic Virtualis Centre on the Expo Sité. In support of the event, SMC has provided the entire network infrastructure for the event including 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet switches and adapters, wireless Ethernet bridges, and wireless hotspot equipment. SMC representatives will also be on-site to support the event and answer gamers questions.
Entertainment networking is a strong emerging market, and SMC is committed to that market on multiple levels, said Tom Rizol, SMC Networks General Manager. The new wireless media receiver products in our EZ-Stream line of networking products, driver-free gaming network adapters and this sponsorship are a testament to our commitment to that market. DreamlanSMC is a great opportunity to show people how networks enhance lifein this case by bringing new gaming partners and new challenges without sacrificing speed and performance.
SMCs portfolio of driverless adapters, designed for use with gaming consoles and other Ethernet-capable devices, such as set-top boxes and printers were the first networking devices introduced by the company focused specifically toward making connecting home entertainment devices easyand wire-free. The companys Gigabit switches and adapters anchor the DreamlanSMC network, providing the bandwidth and throughput that gaming and Enterprise networking alike demand. SMC wireless networking equipment connects gamers to the network as in any hotspot venue, such as hotels, convention centers, and airports.
Introduced last fall, SMCs EZ-Stream line of products took the next leap, with products designed specifically to distribute entertainment mediaaudio, pictures and streaming videothroughout the home, without wires. The two centerpiece products in the EZ-Stream line; the EZ-Stream Universal Wireless Multimedia Receiver, which can distribute audio, graphics and video efficiently throughout the home; and the EZ-Stream Wireless Audio Adapter, for audio-only applications, are joined by a collection of EZ-Stream routers and adapters that make distributing entertainment throughout the homewithout wireseasy.
We invited SMC to consider sponsoring our event because of their reputation in the networking business and wireless networking markets, said Eric Bélanger, DreamlanSMCs Director. Their commitment to developing networking solutions is critical to what DreamlanSMC is trying to accomplish, and SMCs solid Enterprise networking successes speak to quality and reliability. Were excited about this first DreamlanSMC, and thrilled to have SMC as a sponsor. We look forward to working with them for this and future Dreamlan events.
