Notice of Allowance for Key Longest Prefix Match Routing Patent in US

 

Ethernity Networks Ltd (AIM: ENET.L; OTCMKTS: ENETF), a leading supplier of
data processing and Passive Optical Network ("PON") semiconductor technology
for networking appliances, is pleased to announce that the United States
Patent and Trademark Office has issued a notice of allowance in respect of the
Company's U.S. patent application no. 17/929,756 filed on 9 June 2022, for an
advanced Longest Prefix Match ("LPM") routing algorithm (the "Patent
Application").

 

The Patent Application covers the implementation of a highly optimized method
for routing using an LPM algorithm, designed to support hundreds of thousands
of routes while eliminating the need for costly external components such as
TCAM (Ternary Content Addressable Memory). This is achieved through
Ethernity's unique firmware, which is embedded into the Company's pipeline
data processor.

 

The algorithm was originally developed to run on FPGA and form part of
Ethernity's existing UEP offering and is fully applicable for ASIC
implementation, offering a scalable and efficient approach to high-performance
routing within integrated networking platforms. In essence, this routing
Patent Application significantly strengthens the Company's intellectual
property portfolio, reinforcing its position as a technology leader in data
processing and access networking.

 

The Patent Application complements and enhances the Company's planned ASSP
(Application-Specific Standard Product) offering, which is designed to support
Layer 3 MPLS routing capabilities in addition to standard Carrier Ethernet
features. This new patent, once granted, would build upon Ethernity's
differentiated technology stack, which already includes its patented wireless
link bonding and integrated PON functionality. Intellectual property protected
by patents is critically important for Tier-1 OEMs, as it safeguards their
deployments against potential intellectual property infringement claims,
ensuring greater legal and commercial security.

 

Together, these innovations position the Company to deliver a highly
integrated and cost-effective silicon solution that meets the evolving needs
of OEMs and service providers looking for advanced, scalable, and programmable
access network platforms.

 

Receipt of a notice of allowance indicates that the claims in the Patent
Application are patentable and does not in itself represent a grant of patent
rights. The Company anticipates that the patent will be granted upon
completion of certain administrative requirements, including payment of the
Patent Application, in due course.

 

Further announcements will be made at the appropriate time.
