Nokia Networks Selects MontaVista Software to Help Develop All-IP
Infrastructure

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Jan. 22, 2002 ‹ MontaVista Software, Inc., the company
powering the embedded revolution, today announced that it has been chosen by
Nokia Networks to help develop an All-IP infrastructure.

³With the convergence of voice and data, telecommunications companies must
guarantee the delivery of the end-user services in an affordable way,² said
Matti Airas, director, Nokia Networks. ³MontaVista Linux® provides a
standards-based, open-architecture, embedded software base that is both
reliable and scalable.²

³Nokia¹s vote of confidence in MontaVista is further proof of our growing
acceptance for use in leading-edge communication applications,² added Jim
Ready, MontaVista CEO and embedded industry pioneer.

MontaVista Linux boasts unrivaled development support for the broadest range
of embedded processor architectures, with more than 480 fully tested and
supported host-target combinations. The feature-rich product enables a wide
variety of embedded applications, providing a standard platform for designs
in communications infrastructure, networking, consumer electronics,
instrumentation and control.
The MontaVista Linux High Availability Framework, an add-on product, is
ideal for communications applications with heavy I/O loads, such as central
office switching equipment, service provider systems, and other
communications infrastructure applications.

³MontaVista Software continues the trend of moving embedded development away
from proprietary, closed software and hardware designs toward open,
standards-based systems created in a networked R&D environment,² said Sheila
Baker, vice president of marketing, MontaVista Software. ³MontaVista Linux
offers Nokia a robust and flexible platform, allowing it to reduce its
time-to-market and bring All-IP faster and further.²
