Press Release Source: Zhone Technologies, Inc. On Wednesday August 31, 2011, 9:00 am EDT
OAKLAND, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Zhone Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZHNE - News), a global leader in FTTx network access solutions, today announced its influential partnership with SRT Communications (SRT) to use Zhone’s industry-leading MXK™ multi-service access node (MSAN) during and after the disaster relief in Minot, North Dakota, an event estimated to cost more than one billion dollars. Through carefully constructed plans and prompt reactions in time of need, SRT and Zhone restored phone and Internet service to nearly 2,100 non-evacuated customers who were served out of flooded service buildings.
“Communications are critical in times of disaster, and Zhone worked with SRT quickly and efficiently to coordinate a new MXK deployment to restore service for the 3,000 Minot area customers affected,” noted Shawn Grosz, Director of Network Technology, SRT Communications. “SRT has also begun the reconstruction of damaged permanent structures, which will utilize the MXK offering for consistent communication. SRT is grateful for Zhone’s quick response and exceptional customer service in this time of need for our community.”
SRT offers regular updates on the progress of the relief effort through their website: www.srt.com. Customers can check in on restoration status and see visual proof of progress through the provided updates and photos; the page is a testament to the ongoing endeavor of communication service restoration. In uncertain times of high stress, more information is preferred, and SRT has worked hard with Zhone to ensure all parties involved have the ability to communicate and stay up-to-date with the latest developments. The company also provides a service area map of affected areas: http://www.srt.com/onlinestore/resources/pdfs/map.pdf.
“SRT’s dedication to its customers in the Minot area during the disaster sets a great example to the communications industry,” said Brian Caskey, Chief Marketing Officer, Zhone. “Minot was hit hard by the event and we will continue to support SRT in its endeavor to rebuild community – and communication – through our MXK technology and consistent planning.”
SRT serves 48,000 customers, as the largest telephone cooperative in North Dakota, including consumers, businesses and governmental agencies; it has remained a regional leader in deploying enhanced telecommunications services for the past 60 years. SRT currently provides broadband and dial-up Internet services, wireless service, cable TV and IPTV as well as traditional telephone, leased line, voicemail and long-distance voice services. After a year-long trial with Zhone, SRT chose to fully utilize the MXK for its new Microsoft Mediaroom-based video offering (SRTVision) to achieve its expansion plans to reach the 5,800 unserved subscribers in its coverage area. SRT is also one of Zhone’s first customers, having deployed the MALC™ MSAN solution almost a decade ago when SRT was seeking an extendable and cost-effective solution to deliver broadband services to its customers.
Zhone has deployed more than 2,000 of its fully redundant, carrier-grade all-IP MXK platforms with more than 150 service providers in over 40 countries. Featuring industry-leading density, scalability and switching capacity, the MXK is the industry's first terabit access concentrator and provides non-blocking capacity of up to 3,600 100 Mbps GPON subscribers or 360 1G Active Ethernet subscribers.

A Review of Stocks That Are Poised to Triple
http://seekingalpha.com/article/288731-a-review-of-stocks-that-are-poised-to-triple
When was this @ .60. I don't see it in the historicals. At least not recently. Was there a reverse split somewhere along the way
I need to do some DD on this company. I've just about had it with the Biotechs. Bad Summer for them!
This looks like a good Day Trader's stock.
I am just about to give up. why is the obama stimulation$$$$ not showing a positive yet?????
No reason why this stock should not be over
the tree dollar mark.
Me too! Right before the Quarterly Report I made around $800!
Yep! I had been down around $1300. Then.......
I got out @ 60 cents a share a while back..
Wow! Did I call gettin' out or what!!!!
Can't argue against taking profits. GLTU..
I believe their going to have bad Q. They just took on their new Chief Marketing Officer a short while ago. He hasn't a chance to affect. This past quarters numbers. The charts started indicating that the stock was weakening over the past week. I always to make a couple hundred and not get too greedy. At this time, it looks like I made out OK. Maybe I'll get back in at lower level than I first entered at in November.
And they release financials tomorrow? Either you think they will report a bad Q or you are making a mistake.
Sold my holdings today.
Seems like some new life coming back into ZHNE. What do think is going on?
The pattern here is ugly. The mm let it run much of the day and then in the last hour take it to new lows. This is the most manipulated stock I own.
It jumped real nice early on. However this stock is a joke. The MM's are controlling every move. It has been pattern shorted .02 per day for a while. Now they play with it all day and guess where it ends up? Yup, up.02. Gee whiz this game is rigged here.
Lets see if they start sneaking it back up .02 per day. This morning. I was thinking something was up and early news was leaking out. I guess we will see.
bottoming out nicely... ready for rebound?
Hummm.... looks like pattern shorting going on on this stock. Down about .02 every day. Sheese....
Yes, I was wondering what got into this stock today. I am bogged down in state testing of my kids and was not able to follow what was going on. Nice day. I see the MM's manipulated it back to near the start at the close and then let it run back up after hours. We will see tomorrow what happens on follow through... or not.
very nice earnings ..... and nice AH trading
Nice chart... Looks like we got a breakout!!
Hoped in this one this morning. Looks like a good chart for now.
Earnings out tomorrow after the bell

Zhone’s Award-Winning SkyZhone Metro Wi-Fi System Now Eligible for Rural Utilities Service Funding
Zhone Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZHNE), a global leader in network access solutions, announced today that its SkyZhone(™) telco-grade Wi-Fi system is the latest Zhone product to be accepted by the US Department of Agriculture’s Rural Utilities Service (RUS) for use by RUS program participants. RUS provides grants and low cost loans to help network operators secure authorized equipment to bring universal broadband services to rural and underserved communities. RUS and the National Telecommunications and Information Agency (NTIA) will disperse the $7.2 billion in economic stimulus funding allocated for broadband initiatives under the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA).
Awarded for technology innovation, SkyZhone’s breakthrough design greatly enhances both the performance and economics of Wi-Fi, giving network operators renewed opportunities for service delivery. SkyZhone is the only Wi-Fi system to provide integrated DSL backhaul and line powering, combined with an 802.11n, all-MIMO antenna architecture. This means, network operators can leverage existing backhaul facilities to deliver high capacity Wi-Fi services with greater flexibility in radio placement. Engineered for public safety applications, SkyZhone provides telco-grade uptime and ongoing operation even during extended AC power outages.
Rural telecom provider, Manti Tele Communications Company (MTCC) recently deployed the SkyZhone Wi-Fi system to support a number of public-service and commercial applications in Manti, Utah.
“We first attempted to provide municipal wireless services with a mesh Wi-Fi system from another vendor, but the installation was problematic and we had a challenge getting the complex radio network to work well,” said Dallas Cox, Director of Support and Advertising for Manti Tele Communications Company (MTCC). “Installation and turn-up of the SkyZhone system was smooth and the coverage, capacity and performance are outstanding.”
“SkyZhone provides RUS participants an ideal opportunity to deliver on the vision of reliable public Wi-Fi access,” said Steven Glapa, VP of product marketing and management for Zhone. “Integrating Wi-Fi seamlessly into telco networks, using existing network assets vastly improves the economics, performance and viability of Wi-Fi, making it an attractive win for network operators.”
“Zhone's engineering design effectively addresses the reliability and coverage issues associated with earlier Wi-Fi systems,” said Richard Webb, Directing Analyst, WiMAX, WiFi, and Mobile Devices for Infonetics Research. “SkyZhone is tailor made for US service providers in a position to benefit from RUS programs for universal services.”
Zhone products first gained RUS acceptance in 2003, with SkyZhone being the newest addition to the program. For more information about SkyZhone, or to ask about the RUS program please visit http://www.zhone.com/products/SkyZhone/ or call (877) Zhone-20 (946-6320).

Saw this post on ZHNE somewhere else....thought it deserved a repost, I agree 100%.
When Zhone originally went public, the company was called Telium and they were able to raise $500 million dollars in their initial stock offering.
With Zhone, you are now getting a company for 10 cents on the dollar from the original investment. You are getting over 250 million dollars worth of research and development over 10 years. You are getting the 12 different companies that Zhone has acquired over these 10 years to put together the technology and product line they produce. That's not a bad investment.
ZHNE had big news today....Broadband stimulus play....had their new routers approved for stimulus money....
Zhone's New MXK Intelligent Terabit Access Platform Gains USDA Rural Utilities Service Acceptance for FTTx Services
Jun 30, 2009 09:00:05 (ET)
OAKLAND, Calif., Jun 30, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Zhone Technologies, Inc. (ZHNE, Trade ), a global leader in network access solutions, announced today that its new MXK((TM)) platform has been accepted by the US Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service (RUS) for use by RUS program participants. RUS and the National Telecommunications and Information Agency (NTIA) are responsible for dispersing the $7.2 billion in economic stimulus funding allocated for broadband initiatives under the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA).
RUS provides grants and low cost loans to help network operators secure authorized equipment to bring high-speed broadband services to rural and underserved communities. Zhone products first gained RUS acceptance in 2003, with the recently announced MXK being the newest addition to the program.
Zhone's MXK represents significant milestones in broadband access networking and is expressly designed to support the new generation of HD media and on-demand video that require enormous amounts of dedicated bandwidth. In addition to providing a 2x bandwidth improvement over the closest competing platform, the MXK leverages Zhone's well-proven SLMS((TM)) access operating system, giving network operators sophisticated service intelligence and intuitive management with ten years of feature development right out of the gate. The MXK is also the only platform to feature Smart OMCI((TM)) (Optical Network Terminal Management Control Interface) for true ONT standards-based interoperability and ease of use.
"Zhone's MXK is well-suited to NTIA and RUS stimulus projects," said Ron Westfall, Research Director, Access and Applications for Current Analysis. "The platform is designed to substantially reduce the cost of broadband for operators and thereby improve service availability and speed, right in line with the Obama Administration's goals for the broadband stimulus programs."
"We're impressed with the performance, ease of installation, flexibility and cost effective price per port provided by Zhone," said Jeff Lee, Plant Manager for Wisconsin based Chequamegon Communications. "The MXK has the horsepower and the backplane to offer the mega capacity and port counts we need to meet the ever-growing bandwidth desires of our customers."
"We are very proud of what we've accomplished with the MXK, and we're excited by the opportunity that RUS listing provides our customers," said Steven Glapa, VP of product management and marketing for Zhone. "We believe that the MXK's benchmark-setting performance can indeed make a significant contribution toward the achievement of America's broadband objectives."

COMPANY PROFILE
About Zhone
Zhone Headquarters
The Service Provider Challenge
Perhaps for the first time, service providers are facing real competition to their primary businesses. Competitors are encroaching with integrated voice, data and video services that are price competitive. While the addition of video services will help complete their existing service offerings, carriers must also defend their voice and data businesses while simultaneously retooling to rapidly evolving packet-based services. Service Providers need a manageable, scalable, more cost-effective delivery platform that extends their existing networks and allows them to defend their subscriber base and sustain long-term growth.
The Zhone Solution
Zhone's Single Line Multi-Service architecture (SLMS™), allows carriers to concurrently deliver voice, new premium data and video services over copper or fiber access lines. Zhone provides carriers with an elegant migration from legacy circuit-based technology to packet based networks while substantially reducing operating costs. With deployments at over 600 service providers and network operators including among some of the world's largest networks, Zhone has enabled service providers to reinvent their businesses.
The Company
Zhone Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZHNE) was founded by senior executives of Ascend Communications and began operations in September 1999. With corporate headquarters in Oakland, California, the company operates development centers across North America and has sales and service facilities and customers spanning the globe.
Zhone's SLMS architecture delivers key benefits to service providers:
Optimized Broadband Access
Zhone provides the most comprehensive array of scalable platforms and cabinets supporting 8 to 2880 ports per enclosure. Local or line-powered options extend reach to 38,000 ft. / 11.6 km while optional watertight outside plant (OSP) enclosures allow pole, pedestal or underground deployment. This deployment flexibility minimizes loop lengths with precise port densities allowing carriers to provide the ubiquitous broadband needed for triple play services.
Optimized Migration to Packet
Software selectable line and trunk interfaces provide elegant circuit to packet migration. Flexible uplinks including GR-303 / V5.2 / OC-12 / Gig-E allow carriers to deploy and maintain existing TDM services while simultaneously retooling for packet voice using SIP, MGCP or H.248 signaling. Zhone's Flexband™ technology supports broadband and narrowband service without cutovers or the need to dispatch OSP technicians.
Optimized Triple Play
Zhone's innovative end-to-end solution alleviates incompatibilities and smoothes upgrades. The Zhone Residential Gateway eliminates in-house rewiring, eliminates Set-Top Boxes, eliminates scheduled service calls, eliminates in-home liabilities and enhances customer experience.
Optimized Transport
Zhone integrates packet access + Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) transport to handle both TDM and packet traffic using shared virtual rings to provide efficient and cost-effective service delivery. Multicast and broadcast traffic is delivered much more efficiently with RPR offering carriers maximum bandwidth efficiency and QoS guarantees. Zhone's RPR adheres to the IEEE 802.17 standard offering sub-50ms protection switching and simplified provisioning.
Commitment to Quality
As part of its commitment to quality Zhone has established two interoperability test laboratories, representing a significant investment in capital, facilities, and staff. These two labs include 5 local exchange switches with a capacity to simulate traffic equivalent to a city of over 400,000 people. Additional equipment allows testing of high-speed data and video services as well as interoperability with a complete range of 3rd party systems.
Zhone is ISO 9001:2000 certified in the design, manufacture, and service of electronic telecommunications equipment.

SolutionsBroadband Access Solutions Delivering Residential and Business Voice, Video and Data Services over Copper or FiberFTTxSocial networking and new media have created unprecedented expectations for personalization and interactivity in entertainment and business communications. As applications bloom to address the market opportunities, they are putting pressure on limited bandwidth and driving user demand for higher bandwidth access technologies. Fiber solutions offer carriers a means to deliver orders of magnitude more bandwidth while reducing their Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Zhone equipment provides carriers FTTx solution options for strategically introducing Active Ethernet and GPON while ensuring a migration path to emerging 10G access technologies. Multi-ServiceMulti-Service packages are critical to carriers' success today. Service differentiation and time-to-market advantages accrue to carriers who can present their customers with new solutions that combine familiar voice, data and video services for compelling applications in a competitive market. Multi-service implementations require an architecture that anticipates multiple data types and protocols while ensuring interoperable standards-based network elements. Zhone's pioneering work in multi-service solutions with its SLMS architecture has provided its customers with tremendous CAPEX and OPEX savings along with time-to-market advantage with new, revenue-generating applications and services. StimulusAmerica's 2020 Broadband Vision is aimed at improving US global competitiveness, generating new jobs, harnessing innovation and, above all, strengthening America's position as a global leader in the 21st century. At the heart of the 2020 Broadband Vision is the goal of providing 100 million households with affordable 100 Mbps service and ensuring affordable 1 Gbps service in every American community by the year 2020. As the leading US manufacturer of high performance access equipment, Zhone solutions deliver compelling 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps solutions today. Zhone stands ready to work with US carriers to leverage stimulus funding to bring the promise of the 2020 Broadband Vision to their local communities. Mobile BackhaulZhone FiberCell, an extension of Zhone's market-leading FTTx solutions, is a carrier-class mobile backhaul solution designed to address increased bandwidth needs in today's data-centric service environment. Service Providers currently utilize T1/E1 lines for backhaul which results in extremely high monthly re-occurring T1/E1 fees and service charges for mobile backhaul besides not being adequate for the bandwidth requirements. With Zhone FiberCell solution, Zhone customers are benefited with the option of copper and/or fiber based Mobile Backhaul options providing cost-effective backhaul bandwidth upgrades. EZ Touch ProvisioningZHONE EZ TOUCH PROVISIONING - an extension of the Zhone Management System (ZMS) - is the next-generation carrier-class network management and provisioning solution for SHDSL EFM CPEs (ETHX) and non-OMCI GPON and Active Ethernet zNID ONTs. As networks are getting more complex and expensive to manage, service providers are looking at ways and means to reduce their recurring operational expenditure (OPEX) by minimizing truck rolls and manual subscriber-specific features and, effectively, automating the service provisioning functionality. |
