Concurrent Technologies Plc Product Launch

Concurrent Technologies Plc ("Concurrent"), a world leading specialist in the design and manufacture of high-end embedded computer products, announces the launch of a new development system designed to aid customers within Concurrent's target markets in the design and implementation of their own specific applications.

Using the industry standard Micro Telecommunications Computing Architecture ("MicroTCA¢â€ž¢") platform, the SY AMC/205 is a free-standing cube which supports up to 5 Advanced Mezzanine Card ("AMC") modules, and comes pre-loaded with an Intel‚® dual-core processor AMC, a graphics and storage-disk AMC, and a MicroTCA¢â€ž¢ Carrier Hub (MCH) which leaves 3 AMC slots available for system development. This will enable customers to deliver high performance solutions in a small footprint, tailoring the system to bespoke applications within the telecommunications infrastructure, medical equipment, security, defence and other embedded product markets.

This product adds value by allowing customers to develop their own applications using a higher performance system than previously available, meeting an identified need in the marketplace. It is expected that sales driven by this product launch will result from both new and existing customers, in addition to the purchase of additional AMC boards for use in this MicroTCA¢â€ž¢ system.

Glen Fawcett, Managing Director, Concurrent Technologies Plc, commented:

"We are delighted to be continuing to drive forward new products that provide specific benefits for our customers, and will endeavor to maintain this level of development throughout the year. We feel it is important to use our growing engineering and development capacities to bring to market high performance products that have a clear demand and will help us to attract new business."
