Headquartered in Santa Clara, CA, SynOptics was founded 
in June 1985 and through a series of technology innovations 
drove the evolution of a new approach to local area network-
ing through a system built around the intelligent hub.  The 
intelligent hub serves as a control point in a network, 
allowing a variety of physical connectivity and internet-
working technologies to interoperate effectively in a heter-
ogeneous environment.

SynOptics' intelligent hub systems, based on a powerful, 
distributed integration and management architecture, offer 
organizations the tools and methodologies required for 
controlling their complex and fast-growing networks -- 
from Ethernet to Token Ring to FDDI. 

Since 1985, SynOptics has installed more than 1 million 
of its LattisNet(tm) network nodes at thousands of customer 
sites around the world.  SynOptics currently employs nearly 
1,000 people worldwide.

SynOptics' annual revenues have risen dramatically each 
year -- to $1.8 million in 1986, $6.1 million in 1987, 
$40.1 million in 1988, $77.3 million in 1989, and $175.9 
million in earnings in 1990.  In 1991, SynOptics achieved 
its sixth consecutive year of record sales with revenue 
reaching $248.2 million.
