| Business Description |
| The company designs, manufactures and services asynchronous transfer mode ("ATM") access products for the telecommunications service providers, corporate end users and government end users. ATM is a standard for packaging and switching digital information which facilitates high speed information transmission with a high degree of efficiency. End users of telecommunications services have traditionally maintained separate wide area networks for transmitting voice, data, video and other electronic information among geographically dispersed locations. ATM technology is conducive to consolidating these networks. The network consolidation brought about by employing ATM access products can provide savings in WAN communication costs and simplify network management. Yurie is a leading supplier of ATM access products. The company's LDR100, introduced in February 1995, was on of the first commercially available ATM access products. |
| Competition |
| While the market for ATM access products is still evolving, the networking industry as a whole is intensely competitive. Among the companies who have already produced ATM access products are ADC Kentrox and OnStream Networks, which was recently acquired by 3Com. In addition, Sahara Networks is reportedly developing an ATM access product. Other companies, including Cisco Systems/StrataCom, Cascade Communications, General DataComm and Newbridge Networks, have already developed networking equipment that may be competitive with the company's products. |
| Business Plan |
| The company's objective is to become the leading provider of ATM access equipment to both telecommunications service providers and end users. They key elements of Yurie's strategy are as follows: 1) maintain technology leadership; 2) focus on ATM access solutions; 3) develop both the telecommunications service provider and corporate end user markets; 4) pursue international markets; 5) build and leverage strategic relationships. |
