Ramp Networks Inc., provider of
Internet access devices, announced today it signed a three-year $6 million
agreement to sell and distribute its products to the People’s Republic of
China.
Specifically, Ramp Networks will be selling to the People’s Republic its
WebRamp and WebRamp M3t Internet access products, which are designed for
easy installation and to enable quicker download speeds.
Chinese users have been currently connecting through single-access dialup
modems at low speeds. Ramp Networks claims its WebRamp M3 products will
triple these download speeds.
“WebRamp M3 and M3t are the perfect solutions for the PRC because they use
regular phone lines and modems to connect multiple computers to the
Internet. These products save users time and money by delivering Web
browsing speeds close to those of digital technologies, and enabling
multiple users to access the Internet through a single-user account,” said
Mahesh Veerina, founder and president of Ramp Networks.
Ramp Networks’ products will be distributed by Hong Kong-based Synergy
Computers & Communications Ltd. to Internet Service Providers, government
agencies, corporate Internet users, and the small office/home office market
throughout the People’s Republic of China.
