Beijing, experiencing a warmer-than-average April, welcomed not only a citywide burst of vibrant colors but also the press conference announcing Array Networks' entry into China. On April 20, 2004, at the Beijing State Guesthouse, Mr. Zhao Yao, President and CEO of Array Networks, officially announced the introduction of its flagship products, the Array SP series and Array TM series, into the Chinese market. He expressed his commitment to dedicating significant resources towards expanding in China, bringing Array Networks' cutting-edge technology and product philosophy to the forefront of international standards. This aims to provide convenient, secure, and efficient solutions and technological platforms for China's internet applications, accelerating the country's informatization process. On that day, numerous partners and media representatives attended the press conference, engaging in an in-depth discussion on issues such as application performance management and multi-layered security during the remote access of enterprise information.

Array Networks Inc., is a world-leading network application technology company dedicated to providing top-tier integrated solutions for network application performance acceleration and end-to-end secure remote access based on SSL VPN technology to global enterprises.

Array Networks Inc., founded in April 2000, has its headquarters located in Silicon Valley, California, USA. Currently, Array Networks offices are spread across North America, Europe, Latin America, and the Asia-Pacific region, serving nearly 300 major customers and partners. Its solutions are widely deployed in large enterprises, service providers, and institutions such as finance, government, and healthcare around the globe. Array Networks owns a wholly-owned subsidiary in China responsible for sales and support in the Chinese market, equipped with a complete R&D team capable of quickly responding to specific local user needs.

This time, Array Networks entered China with its flagship products, the Array TM series and Array SP series. Array Networks' products, based on the patented Array SpeedStackTM technology, perform integrated and intelligent high-speed processing of network packets, significantly enhancing the robustness and scalability of network applications and infrastructure. This allows enterprises and service providers to deliver secure and predictable applications in unpredictable network environments, thereby reducing management costs and risks.

The Array TM series represents the third generation of network traffic management equipment, fundamentally changing traditional concepts of network traffic management by intelligently integrating eight functions into one product. It features high performance, reliability, and scalability, fully embodying the characteristics of "All-In-One" and "One-For-All."

The Array SP series also represents a significant technical breakthrough compared to ordinary SSL VPNs. The layer3 VPN design of Array SP can handle not only web-based applications but also various other applications within enterprises (OA, ERP, financial management, sales management, etc.), effectively combining traditional LANs with WANs. Through Array Networks' high-performance, multifunctional integrated network security platform, enterprises can quickly deploy secure, scalable networks.

Mr. Zhao Yao, President of Array Networks, told reporters: "Providing secure, scalable, and high-speed end-to-end access solutions for enterprise application systems is Array Networks' mission. With this sense of mission, Array Networks continuously focuses on the forefront of industry development, identifies common challenges in network applications, and concentrates its best technical forces to develop world-class products and applications. Array Networks' core competitiveness lies in its ability to consistently develop products that lead in technology and market trends, earning high praise in overseas markets and receiving widespread acclaim from many customers including Microsoft, Volu Bill, Intel, among others." He also informed reporters that the rapid development of China's economy, especially the rapid growth of e-commerce, has led to many major IT companies entering China. China's internet is already developing rapidly and will continue to do so, which will inevitably create a huge demand domestically for network application products and solutions. Array Networks has already developed localized strategies according to the specific market demand situation in China, combining Array Networks' latest technologies and products, years of accumulated market and management experience overseas, and channel experience. We believe China will certainly become one of the fastest-growing countries for Array Networks' business.

Currently, the domestic network application market demand is increasingly diverse, with the level of informatization in large enterprises gradually improving and IT-based business volumes growing rapidly. In response, some network application device and solution suppliers have also entered the market, leading to increasingly fierce competition. What Array Networks' entry will bring to the network application market and China's internet remains to be seen.
