Innovative Solution Developed with 4HomeMedia

TAIPEI, Taiwan, Jan. 7 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Accton Technology (TAIEX: 2345) announced that it will manufacture Home HealthPoint 1500 which enables the independent living (IL) for seniors via remote monitoring from their caregivers. Providing the carrier-grade managed broadband CPEs to enable the home care applications proves that Accton has migrated to the next level of broadband hardware CPE market.

"Accton is very happy to have the opportunity to work with 4HomeMedia for this project," said Samuel Chang, Senior ODM Sales and Marketing VP of Accton, "It proves that Accton, as a global premier provider for networking and communication solutions for top tier companies, provides the intelligent carrier-grade CPEs as well as the carrier access switches. Accton will demonstrate its end-to-end solution in our private suite in the Las Vegas Hilton Hotel to our valued ODM partners during CES 2008."

This innovative solution consists of ControlPoint(TM) software running in a Home HealthPoint gateway with various sensors in the house and a multi-party portal user-interface (UI) generated from the backend hosted Portal Server. The Portal Server delivers three unique and customized user experiences based on the same data generated within the house -- for the senior at home, for remote family members or caregivers, and for remote medical or nursing facilities.

The 4HM-powered IL service will be available in the second half of 2008 through a variety of broadband service providers, both in North America and internationally.
