Ethertronics Ships 100 Million Embedded Antennas


    Ethertronics Inc., a leading provider of standard and customized
    embedded antenna solutions for wideband and multi-band wireless
    devices, announced the company has shipped more than 100 million of
    its Isolated Magnetic Dipole(TM) (IMD) antennas. This achievement
    validates the company´s ability to cater to device manufacturers´
    increasing demand for functionality and high-quality performance.

    "Establishing an installed base of more than 100 million
    highlights Ethertronics´ antennas´ superior performance capabilities
    and ease of integration," said Jeffrey Crosby, president and chief
    executive officer of Ethertronics. "As the industry-wide trend of
    developing smaller and more compact devices continues, Ethertronics is
    witnessing an increased demand for high-performance, quality embedded
    antennas to serve a variety of applications. The company is
    experiencing a high-growth phase and expects this phase to continue as
    manufacturers continue to see the advantages of our IMD antennas."

    In March 2007, Ethertronics announced the company had reached the
    50 million milestone for antennas shipped. Within the past year,
    Ethertronics has doubled its installed base to surpass the 100 million
    mark.

    Ethertronics continues to gain global market share with its full
    line of custom and embedded, stamped-metal and ceramic antenna
    products, which enable manufacturers to easily incorporate the
    company´s antennas into feature-rich devices while continuing to
    shrink products´ overall size. The company´s patented IMD antenna
    technology delivers to the key needs of today´s wireless world by
    confining the current flow on the antenna, which optimizes isolation
    and delivers higher performance with minimal SAR emissions.

    Ethertronics´ antennas have been designed into several global
    manufacturers´ handsets, including Motorola, Samsung, Sony Ericsson,
    and Symbol, as well as an innovative GPS watch from Casio and
    Bluetooth modules for HP notebook computers.
