1394 TRADE ASSOCIATION PRESS RELEASE

Comoss is Latest Company to Earn 1394a Cable Compliance Logo from the 1394 Trade Association

Dallas, May 4, 2007 – Comoss, a leading supplier of 1394-equipped cable and connector products, has become the latest company to earn the 1394 Trade Association’s compliance logo for its 1394a cables. The logo indicates that specific products comply with the 1394 Trade Association’s Cable and Connector Compliance Test Specification, which was established last autumn by the association.

Comoss joins Newnex Corporation to successfully complete the cable compliance test program on their 6-pin to 6-pin and 4-pin to 4-pin cables. “We are pleased to announce that Comoss has joined Newnex in meeting compliance and being awarded the compliance logo,” said James Snider, executive director of the 1394 Trade Association. “This is a very good start to the program and we expect several other leading suppliers will have their products certified for the logo in the near future.”

Based in Taiwan, Comoss specializes in making connectors, cable assemblies and PCB Assemblies and has more than 15 years of experience. With research, development and engineering support, Comoss concentrates on turnkey solutions and applies the principle of just-in-time manufacturing.

The Compliance Logo Program complements the IEEE 1394a standard, which specifies product design at the level of interfaces and mechanisms. Companies can submit their cables and connectors to one of three certified test organizations – ETC of Taiwan and Contech Research and NTS of the United States – for certification.

Compliance testing is designed to help manufacturers measure how well their products match the specification. Using the 1394TA certified cables and connectors will increase product reliability and customer confidence, and OEMs must use 1394TA certified cables and connectors for any other 1394 devices manufactured by them to earn the 1394 compliance logo certification.

The Cable and Connector Working Group of the 1394 Trade Association is now developing the process for 1394b cable/connector compliance. It is set to begin during the second calendar quarter. For more information about the 1394 Trade Association, please visit www.1394ta.org
