(www.TeamF1.com), the high-performance embedded networking and security software company, and Applied Micro Circuits Corp. (AMCC) (NASDAQ: AMCC), a leading vendor of embedded PowerPC(R) and network processors today announced expanded support of TeamF1&#8217;s secure networking solutions on AMCC&#8217;s PowerPC family of highly integrated embedded microprocessors. This is the latest milestone in a strategic alliance which combines TeamF1&#8217;s expertise in embedded security and advanced networking software with AMCC&#8217;s global leadership in embedded PowerPC processors. <\/p>\n<p> The two companies have committed to jointly develop highly integrated, advanced networking and security platforms for OEMs and ODMs in the Wi-Fi(R) and VPN application space. Their partnership focuses on demonstrating optimized hardware architectures and software components designed to leverage specialized hardware resources. <\/p>\n<p> Following the recent successful porting of TeamF1 products on AMCC&#8217;s  440GR based Yellowstone evaluation kit earlier this year, TeamF1 has now integrated  its secure access point software (Air Secure Access Point or &#8220;ASAP&#8221;) on AMCC&#8217;s &#8220;Taihu&#8221; development platform &#8211; a low-cost, easy-to-use evaluation kit for AMCC&#8217;s PowerPC 405EP processor.  This new integrated platform consists of TeamF1&#8217;s ASAP software, TeamF1&#8217;s secure management middleware, AMCC&#8217;s PowerPC 405EP based Taihu evaluation kit and a standard off-the-shelf PCI-based Wi-Fi chipset.  This pre-validated solution is targeted towards the growing market for low-cost, yet full-featured secure access points and wireless gateways. <\/p>\n<p> TeamF1&#8217;s ASAP software provides rich capabilities such as the ability to concurrently support many different generations of 802.11 security technology found in today&#8217;s wireless networks &#8212; from WEP through WPA, up to WPA2\/ 802.11i in either Personal (Pre-shared Key) or Enterprise (802.1X) modes.  AMCC&#8217;s PowerPC 405EP processor with integrated network connectivity and a 32-bit PCI v2.2 interface, when  combined with any standard PCI-based Wi-Fi(R) chipset provides the necessary performance and interface features for a complete cost-sensitive ODM\/OEM-ready access point solution. To further assist OEMs\/ODMs with production-ready solutions, TeamF1 also offers managed VPN\/firewall gateway capabilities with ASAP-enabled wireless connectivity in an easily configurable and re-brandable package.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;We are happy to have reached two goals with this milestone: accelerate production schedules of OEMs and ODMs of feature-rich wireless devices through seamless hardware-software integration, and lower BOM costs by targeting a low-cost hardware platform,&#8221; said Mukesh Lulla, TeamF1 co-founder and President. &#8220;Our alliance with AMCC continues to lead the market in providing solutions that deliver an optimized user experience, while providing system designers with more choices in hardware platforms.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;We are delighted to see TeamF1 introduce their Air Secure Access Point software for our low-cost 405EP processor platform&#8221;, said Charlie Ashton, Director of Software at AMCC. &#8220;While the 405EP is an optimum processor solution for wireless access points, OEM and ODM customers expect to integrate off-the-shelf software into their products. The ASAP software package clearly meets their need for comprehensive software with advanced security features. We look forward to achieving many design-wins based around the combination of our 405EP processor and TeamF1&#8217;s ASAP software&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p> The two companies will be demonstrating the full range of capabilities of this solution at Computex in the Grand Hyatt hotel, in Taipei, Taiwan from June 6-10, 2006. <\/p>\n<p> <b>Availability<\/b><\/p>\n<p> This integrated hardware\/software reference design providing a complete secure access point solution is available immediately from AMCC and TeamF1. Additionally, TeamF1&#8217;s network security components such as V-IPSecure (IPsec and IKE), SSLimSecure (SSL), SSHield (SECSH) and authentication solutions (Kerberos, RADIUS, digital certificates) pre-validated on AMCC&#8217;s PowerPC(R) processor family are also available individually under flexible licensing terms directly from TeamF1.
