Rim Semiconductor Announces Technical Trial Agreement with Leading Telecom Equipment Supplier in China
Tuesday , October 09, 2007 06:00ET
PORTLAND, Ore., Oct 09, 2007 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Rim Semiconductor Company (OTCBB:RSMI), the inventor and leader in Internet Protocol Subscriber Line(TM) (IPSL(TM)) technology, today announced that a leading telecom equipment supplier in China agreed to conduct a technical trial of Rim Semi's Cupria(TM) transport processor.
China is the largest DSL market in the world. At present, over 36 million DSL lines are in use nationally. New installations are growing at a rate of 15 percent each year. By 2009 there will be an estimated 17 - 20 million Internet Protocol TV (IPTV) users across China.
Under the technical trial program, the company intends to complete a product evaluation of the Cupria(TM) transport processor in China. The company's agreement with Rim Semi does not bind Rim Semi or the equipment manufacturer. The company has asked Rim Semi to not identify them publicly until such time as they agree, or until Rim Semi is required to identify them under Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations.
"By far, digital subscriber line remains the broadband access technology of choice in China and around the world. DSL has consistently proven to be cost effective, reliable and easy to deploy, but continues to demonstrate performance limitations," stated Brad Ketch, president and chief executive officer of Rim Semiconductor Company. "With Cupria(TM) IPSL breakthrough performance, telecom equipment companies stand to offer carriers the much needed capability and capacity to handle triple play services such as IPTV."

Jul 10, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Rim Semiconductor Company, a company that develops technology for telecommunications service providers, filed a non-provisional patent application on its innovative RQAM(TM) technology. Rim Semi's Cupria(TM) transport processor is based on this RQAM technology, and is able to drive data traffic at more than 40 megabits per second (Mpbs) 5,500 feet (1.67km) on 26AWG (0.40mm) telephone wire. Existing technologies are able to drive data 15 mbps at this distance on this wire type. Telephone companies, municipalities, and businesses can use Cupria(TM) for services like IPTV, Ethernet and monitoring. The patent, entitled "Amplitude Modulation Decoder," was filed as a non-provisional patent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. It was also filed under the Patent Cooperation Treaty, which most of the world's industrialized countries are a part of. Thus, Rim Semi's intellectual property rights are protected across a wide geography. Rim Semiconductor Company owns, co-owns or exclusively licenses technology from seventeen issued patents and eleven patent applications in the United States. All of these patents and patent applications generally pertain to methodologies to modify data and transmit it more efficiently on metallic media like copper wire. RQAM(TM) can be combined with many of them to produce superior semiconductor performance.
