Hybrid Supports Broadband Networking Initiative
Cupertino, CA (May 19, 1994) - Hybrid Networks, Inc. (Hybrid)
announced today that it fully supports the Intel and General Instrument (GI)
efforts to provide high speed bi-directional network connectivity to personal
computers via cable systems. Hybrid also expressed its pleasure at today's
announcement by Intel and GI that additional cable operators and information
providers will also be supporting this effort.
Hybrid's networking technology is now being utilized by Intel and GI
in their cable adapter development efforts. This technology offers the first
affordable method of delivering a broad range of high speed services to
homes and schools over cable and other types of broadband media.
"Hybrid is very pleased with the progress of its strategic relationship
with Intel and GI," said Howard L. Strachman, President and CEO
of Hybrid. "Intel and GI are the unquestioned leaders in the PC and cable
industries, respectively. Their industry expertise is extremely synergistic
with Hybrid's networking technology. This team is rapidly moving broadband
interactive services into the hands of consumers," said Strachman.
Hybrid Networks, Inc. was founded in 1990 to develop and market high
speed network connectivity products and services. Privately funded, Hybrid has
demonstrated high speed Internet connectivity and telecommuting applications
using the existing communications infrastructure. Hybrid's technology has been
demonstrated extensively through tests in the San Francisco Bay Area and
Washington, DC. A recent presentation for Vice President Al Gore was conducted
at Monta Vista High School in Cupertino, CA.
