'<P><STRONG>The Internet is Increasingly Usurping Traditional TV</STRONG></P> <P>Analog TV Converters, soon to be required for free TV broadcasts after the FCC mandate stops analog broadcast TV signals, have primarily been bought by households already with a paid subscription to TV, high-speed Internet, and extensive consumer electronics, according to the Analog TV Converter Report from MetaFacts, Inc.</P> <P>“We found six distinct market segments, and most converters are going to households which already have a paid subscription to TV through cable or satellite.” said Dan Ness, Principal Analyst at MetaFacts. The large-scale nationwide survey found that 18% of online households have Pay TV and either have an adapter or plan to acquire one. These households also have the strongest concentration of consumer electronics and high-speed Internet access. By contrast, 1% of online households have a converter and don’t have Pay TV, 2% of online households plan to have a converter and don’t have Pay TV, and 6% of online households don’t have Pay TV and neither have a converter nor plans to buy one.</P> <P>“It’s like musical lounge chairs,” said Dan Ness, Principal Analyst at MetaFacts. “When analog TV broadcasts stop, most converters are heading towards those already with Pay TV, and most of those without Pay TV will be left behind.”</P> <P>“The Internet continues to replace traditional TV. Now, the majority of Americans are getting their entertainment, news, and content from the Internet,” said Dan Ness, Principal Analyst at MetaFacts. “Five out of nine (55%) of households without Pay TV, converters, or plans to buy a converter say they spend more time using their computer than watching TV. Even those with both Pay TV and a TV converter box agree, with 60% agreeing they spend more time with their computer than watching TV, and 78% saying the Internet is a big part of their home entertainment.”</P> <P>Other findings in the Analog TV Converter Profile Report include:</P> <UL> <LI>Analog TV Converters are more popular with males than females</LI> <LI>Plans for basic satellite TV are relatively strongest among households without Pay TV and planning to buy a converter</LI> <LI>Those planning to buy converters shop mostly at 5 retail and online outlets: Wal-Mart, Amazon, eBay, Target, and Walgreens.</LI></UL> <P>The Analog TV Converter Profile Report is based on surveys with over 10,000 American adults by telephone and online as part of the Technology User Profile 2008 Annual Edition study.</P> <P>MetaFacts also recently released the Technology User Profile 2008 Annual Edition along with other research on the market shifts and profiles about customers of Apple, Busy Mobiles, and other areas.

'<P><STRONG>Proprietary &amp; Patented Cable Plant Conversion Process Scores with MSOs</STRONG></P> <P>Kabel-X(TM) USA, the award-winning leader in coax and fiber optic cable line conversion, has pioneered a unique technology process that quickly and seamlessly removes and replaces copper coax cable from digital networks, significantly cutting maintenance costs and procedures, while also providing operators a conduit through which they can easily deploy upgraded fiber optic cabling without costly excavation and replacement of existing lines. Kabel-X has successfully trialed their proprietary technology with many of the country's top cable operators and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive as they look to repair, replace and upgrade their plant across local systems.</P> <P>The Kabel-X process is highly efficient, and the most significant legacy cable upgrade technique to date, providing a fiber pathway that quickly converts hundreds of feet per pull. Uniquely valuable to cable, the process is ideally suited for a variety of applications including fiber-deep network build-outs, challenging crossings or pathways, in vertical high rises and other MDUs which operators see as a vital target for fiber expansion in the face of growing competition from telco operators.</P> <P>Kabel-X's unique approach uses a proprietary lubricant under pressure to separate the dielectric within the coax cable from the outer aluminium shield. The dielectric and center conductor are quickly pulled out, leaving an empty conduit for easy replacement, repair or fiber upgrade. This process expedites installation time, minimizes costs, requires minimal new permits to be pulled, and simplifies a once expensive and inconvenient process.</P> <P>For the first time, cable TV providers can quickly deploy state-of-the-art, high bandwidth fiber optic facilities within their existing plant. Outdated copper conductors that are buried, aerial or underground are re-cored with new cable using this patented process, providing a faster, more convenient, less destructive, and less labor-intensive alternative to traditional fiber cable placement techniques.</P> <P>"Cable service providers have been looking for cost-effective and less intrusive construction alternatives to line excavation and replacement for a long time," said Darin Clause, executive vice president for Kabel-X USA. "Whether to the node, pole or beyond, Kabel-X technology removes line access costs and hassles by leveraging the most efficient and minimally disruptive cable conversion process on the market."</P> <P>Kabel-X's unique and patented copper/coaxial cable replacement method is a proven process that has been used in over 120 countries in the last four years, vastly improving worldwide television and Internet delivery networks through fiber optic cable conversion.</P> <P><STRONG>About Kabel-X(TM) USA LLC</STRONG><BR>The Kabel-X process provides a streamlined solution where CATV/Telco coaxial cable and telecommunications copper conductors are removed for reclamation dollars and replaced with faster, higher bandwidth fiber optic cable. As an integrated process that takes place within the existing legacy network, fiber cable conversion is achieved in less time, with less labor and cost, and does not disrupt neighborhoods, communities, infrastructure and in most cases, lengthy and expensive permitting processes are not needed (since the work is being applied to existing cable under maintenance conditions). Copper cable conversion is no longer a vision of the future -- Kabel-X USA is accelerating fiber conversion today.

'<P>New Unit Combines GPS Antenna, Receiver and Surge Protection in a Single Cost-Effective Solution</P> <P>PCTEL, Inc. (NASDAQ: PCTI), a leader in propagation and optimization solutions for the wireless industry, today announced the introduction of its new Smart GPS reference timing antenna solution with an integrated GPS receiver. The unit eliminates the need for expensive coaxial cable, signal splitters and in-line amplifiers and provides built-in surge protection.</P> <P>PCTEL’s proprietary design combines a high-performance antenna with a receiver. This new solution shares the same form factor and enclosure as the current “antenna-only” product. The high performance element provides optimal coverage and multipath rejection and is coupled to a low noise amplifier with pre-selector and an inter-stage filter for minimizing RF interference. This makes the solution ideal for high RF noise environments encountered in base station installations for Cellular and WiMAX applications.</P> <P>Over the past few years, there has been a tremendous increase in use of data services over cellular networks. To cope with this increase in data traffic there is a move towards IP (Internet Protocol) based back haul. Several next generation wireless technologies including WiMAX are being designed using IP from end-to-end to handle VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) and other data applications including streaming video and music. This network evolution creates a need to derive network timing from an external source.</P> <P>“This fundamental shift in technology has led to a need for timing and synchronization on a much wider basis across wireless broadband networks” said Jeff Miller, General Manager of PCTEL’s Antenna Products Group. “Our new line of smart GPS Timing antennas reflects our commitment to closely work with our customers in meeting evolving market requirements.”</P> <P>PCTEL’s antenna solution incorporates a 12 channel GPS receiver with 1 Pulse per Second NMEA 0183 protocol and can support RS232 or RS422 data interfaces. This antenna solution is available with a variety of rugged mounting options.</P> <P>PCTEL will demonstrate its new GPS Timing Antenna Solution along with its portfolio of WiMAX antenna products at the WiMAX World 2008 Exhibition in Chicago, IL, October 1-2, 2008.
