Message

In December 1990, five IT engineers started the Company under the banner of the"telecommunications."It was the year when the digitization of telecommunications infrastructure started accelerating three years after the ISDN services were initiated in 1987.

In the meantime, our enthusiasm resulted in our first protocol test product DXV-100 utilizing personal computers, being launched in spring 1992. For the last decade in the 20th century, we steadfastly followed the path of the development of communication technologies, including the Internet that have been proliferating at an unprecedented speed, scale and impact, as well as newly emerging mobile telecommunications, such as PHS and PDC.

In the course of this evolution, we have consistently focused on telecommunications protocols that are being continuously developed for the upgrading of communication technologies. Providing our protocol test solution and network management solution, we are supporting the advanced networked society as well as the rapidly growing telecommunications market. Our protocol test solution has continuously been leveraged extensively as an indispensable item for telecommunications firms and equipment makers to develop and manufacture the infrastructure components. Meanwhile, our network management solution is being utilized as important tools by telecommunications firms and enterprises in general to support stable operations of their mission-critical networks.

We are still witnessing the new trend of continuous technological innovations in the telecommunications market, such as a full-scale operation of the IMT-2000(the third-generation mobile communication system), the advance of Internet telephony, as well as the development of broadband communications that enable ultra-high-speed Internet. The telecommunications infrastructure has now become an indispensable element of current society, and its growing importance is illustrated by the fact that if it breaks down this would seriously affect our daily life. On the other hand, our never-ending craving for communication that enables us to share any kind of information at anytime, anywhere and with anyone, will further accelerate the development of advanced telecommunications infrastructure, making the speed of communication ever faster and telecommunications protocols more complex.

The name "Artiza Networks" was coined terms based on "artisan" and "network." The root word of" artisan" refers to "fine art." We choose this corporate name because it reflects the expertise and level of perfection that we strive for in providing our high level products and service to support the establishment of the nextgeneration telecommunications infrastructure.We at Artiza Networks will promise to keep delivering artistic products worthy of the name to customer around the world, and provide clients with truly value-added solutions that support the reliability of our telecommunications infrastructure.
