electronic devices and communications equipment for aerospace, defense,
industrial, and communications applications announced today that its
subsidiary, CXR Larus Corporation, released today the StarSync Edge 6800

Carmine T. Oliva, President and CEO of EMRISE, commented, “The
StarSync™ 6800 is the companion NTP/PTP client product to the original
StarSync 6850 NTP/PTP server from our partnership with Brilliant. The
combination of the 6800 and 6850 with our own
StarClock™ TiemPo™ provides CXR Larus the ability to seamlessly serve
the time, synchronization and timing needs of the most complex NTP/PTP
or converged TDM/NTP Next Generation Networks. We now have a total
solution that will broaden our product offering in the Next Generation
Network Market servicing wireless backhaul, Full IP networks, as well as
the traditional circuit switched and converged networks. The StarSync
6800 is a temperature hardened product, which opens the door to many
applications with remote hubs and hostile environments, such as in the
French North African market served by our subsidiary CXR Anderson
Jacobson. The 6800 and the 6850 are a family of products providing
wire-speed NTP/PTP IEEE1588 v2 with unparalleled accuracy. Mr. Oliva
further added, Brilliant technology is being integrated into our
existing suite of Timing and Synchronization products to allow CXR Larus
to shorten its development cycle and time to market for the entire range
of product offerings. These new products will position CXR Larus for
dynamic growth in 2008 and beyond.”
Charles Barry, Chairman and CEO of Brilliant, commented, “For
Brilliant, the ongoing collaboration with CXR Larus continues to broaden
our distribution and support channels and validates our strategy to
employ strategic partners like CXR Larus. The velocity that CXR Larus
has brought to the table is helping us drive rapid market expansion of
our precise timing and synchronization technologies for next generation
networks. Further product enhancements are planned for the relationship
that will allow both companies to service a total market solution with
complimentary embedded and standalone products. We are very pleased with
the partnership and look forward to increasing sales for both companies
in the years to come.”
