ZYTRAX is innovating again with its new NetWidget brand. While still a couple of months from shipping product (beta systems are now slated for September 2005) we are receiving enthusiastic comments already. And just what is a NetWidget. Well you know what a widget is, well a NetWidget is exactly the same but for networks and offices! You can read some of the background behind our thinking and our plans in the press release.
ZYTRAX-Networks is a new stand-alone business group which provides network design, cabling design, system design, installation, maintenance and security audits for complex and advanced networking requirements.
ZYTRAX provides specialised development and consulting services to selected clients. Projects are highly specialised and typically use Linux, FreeBSD or embedded platforms and have a high and complex networking content. Our current and recent projects include ISDN for E911, Selective Routers for E911 and FCC Phase II mandate, SS7, SIGTRAN, VoIP and IP Video-conferencing technologies.
Our unique HotPools technology allows sophisticated sharing of bandwidth between multiple communications links to maximise network efficiency and minimise costs. Life does not get better than that..
...and, by the way, we also like pushing water uphill.
The ZYTRAX Tech Info section is a collection of technical information that we have found useful over the years and which is provided as a service to the community.
ZYTRAX has been an advocate of Open Source solutions for many years, the Open Pages is a collection of material which may help others to understand its applicability in various sectors. We have also launched the second in a series of whimsically named 'Rocket Scientist guides' LDAP for Rocket Scientists. The first in the series,DNS for Rocket Scientists has already proven immensely popular and is being hit over 200,000 times per month and still growing fast.
Router Products - Wireless
Our current development is a range of secure wireless routers being marketed under our Steam Packet Radio brand. The Air-Frame
range of secure wireless IP products is optimised for IP network access and specifically targeted at ISPs and other IP network operators. Air-Frame is designed to be rugged and reliable in typical multi-cell urban operation with an 'out-of-box' performance of 2km+ but with the power (our 'sweet spot' is 3 - 8 km) to handle outlying connections. The feature set for this class of equipment is outstanding - IPSec, DHCP Server, NAT, PAT, Firewall and much more.
Router Products - Wireline
We design, develop and market routing products for both "wireline" and "wireless" networks. Our WarpTwo IP Multicast ISDN Router is a full featured - NAT, PAT, Firewall, DHCP Server and much more.
ISP Services
We now provide a range of Business Class Internet Access Services (yes that means we are an ISP). We build and understand the technology from the ground up. It's our own equipment used exclusively. We control all the variables. It means you get a simple, hassle-free life. Our service works. Period.
We provide specialized development and consulting services to clients where we believe our in-depth IP network skills, our extensive code libraries and our FreeBSD, Linux and embedded system expertise will let us do an outstanding, but cost-effective, job.
Language skills include C, C++, Java, Ruby, Python, PHP, Javascript, HTML, XHTML, XML, various assemblers and even Visual Basic so we can pick the right tool for the job. Database projects have included MySQL and PostgreSQL.
Recent and current projects include ISDN for E911, Selective Routers for E911 and the FCC Phase II mandate, SS7, SIGTRAN, VoIP (RTP Stack and SIP), Embedded TFTP server and Embedded Web Configuration. If you think we may be able to help mail software at zytrax or click 'mail-us' on any page.
You may find some of these things interesting..or then again you may not...

Tabbed Browsing
If you have never tried tabbed browsing you have never lived a full life. Get the superb Firefox from Mozilla, our favorite K-Meleon or Opera to experience better browsing.
Open Source
High quality software that's free, legal and runs on Windows. With a slew of Mozilla's Gecko based Windows browsers and OpenOffice to name but two its no longer just for Linux geeks.
Explorer Favorites You may have wondered why some sites have an icon against their names (our does). When you click 'Add to Favorites', Explorer and now most other browsers looks for a file called favicon.ico file (16 x 16) in the current directory. More info
