Press Release Body = Pleasanton, Feb 16, 2006 - - California Software Labs has
launched PCMM Gate Control API, a Software Development Kit (SDK) to implement IP
based QoS and policy management for multimedia services. The new SDK provides
high-level APIs to implement the QoS control components of Application Manager,
Policy Server and the CMTS, as specified in CableLabs\' PacketCable Multimedia
standards. This is designed to help combat the challenges faced by service providers
by offering guaranteed quality of service (QoS).

PCMM Gate Control API is a developer product meant for equipment vendors and system
integrators serving the packet cable networks. This software development kit allows
them to develop systems to control QoS (Quality of Service) in the packet cable
network. This capability enables delivery of multi-media services like
video-on-demand in packet cable networks.

The product supports PacketCable Multimedia Specifications (Sep 2004) from
CableLabs® and therefore ensures seamless interfacing with content providers as well
as equipment from multiple vendors. With the help of PCMM Gate Control API, service
providers can deliver more services as the COPS support makes the CMTS more
manageable.
