DECEMBER 16, 2008 -- Patton Electronics Co. has acquired all rights to the OnSite Systems S10 microMSPP products and technology.

Patton says the acquisition broadens its edge-access multiservice offering for service providers, carriers, and mobile operators. Along with advance networking, integrated QoS, and TDM switching capabilities, the Patton OnSite S10 is designed to provide seamless IP/Ethernet service migration while interfacing to any SONET/SDH transport network.

"As the network evolves, core networking technologies consistently push towards the access," said Scott Whittle, vice president product management. "OnSite developed key game-changing technology which offers a compelling solution to metro-transport migration challenges. We are excited to address the established OnSite customer base by making available the existing pizza-box S10 series and interface modules while immediately migrating the technology into our ForeFront Multiservice Access Platform."

Patton's ForeFront Access Infrastructure Solutions are intended to deliver a scalable carrier-class access platform with next-generation network delivery of narrowband, broadband, and triple-play multimedia services. ForeFront allows deployment of Patton's TDM, packet, dedicated xDSL, optical SONET/SDH, and dial-up system cards within a single managed chassis.

"Today we've acquired the OnSite S10 and we will continue to service evolving customer TDM and IP requirements," said Burton A. Patton, executive vice president of Patton. "We are naturally pleased to further our position as a full-service network access equipment provider with the addition of metro-optical products and solutions. Our acquisition expands Patton's presence among carriers, cable MSOs, and mobile operators as their needs converge towards all packet-based voice, video, data delivery, and transport systems."
