ITHACA, New York, August 20 /PRNewswire/ --

MCCI Corporation applauds the decision of the USB Implementers Forum to
approve Network Control Model (NCM) technology as an open standard. The
published 1.0 revision is now available to USB-IF members.

NCM is indispensable for the faster handset communications that
next-generation technologies require. NCM improves on the existing Ethernet
Control Model protocol via a high performance data plane optimized for use
with LTE, HSDPA+, WiMAX, and other future network technologies. With the
adoption of NCM as an open standard, platform vendors and handset vendors
interested in high speed data rate capabilities are expected to leverage the
NCM solution to achieve truly high-speed data throughput.

"MCCI, as a primary contributor to and technical editor of the NCM
specification, has already deployed a preliminary version of NCM, called
Early NCM (ENCM) to prove the viability and advantages of this new protocol,"
explains Terry Moore, MCCI CEO. "We have cell phone customers deploying ENCM
in volume production today and we will now migrate them to NCM."

NCM and ENCM serve the increasing need for faster data communications and
"always-on" data connectivity. For more information on MCCI's NCM solution,
please visit our firmware and host driver product pages. With this proven
technology, MCCI is ready to increase the competitiveness of vendors who are
targeting the next-generation mobile communications consumer.
