Tel Aviv, Israel – January 8, 2004 – Further to its announcement of December 23, 2003, RiT Technologies (NASDAQ: RITT) today announced that its shares will begin trading on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market at the opening of business on Monday, January 12, 2004. The shares will continue to trade under the RITT stock symbol.

RiT Introduces PVMax, the New PatchView Platform, at BICSI

PVMax Allows Enterprises of All Sizes to Benefit from Faster, Easier Implementation and Increased ROI

- Demonstrations at Booth #1013 of the BICSI Winter Conference -

BICSI, Orlando, – January 12, 2004 – RiT Technologies (NASDAQ: RITT), the pioneer of intelligent physical layer management solutions (IPLMS), today launched PVMaxTM, a powerful new hardware platform for its widely-deployed PatchViewTM real-time network management solution. The launch follows a successful six-month beta trial during which PVMax, together with the latest version of RiT’s PatchView for the EnterpriseTM (PV4E) software, was used to manage more than 80,000 ports in one communication room at a customer site.  

PVMax will be showcased with PV4E Version 3.3 at the BICSI (Building Industry Consulting Service International, Inc.)  Winter Conference in Orlando in booth # 1013. 

For over ten years, RiT has been developing products which provide an accurate physical connectivity map of network devices.  As the result of ongoing customer feedback, this latest product sets new records in terms of ease of use, implementation and maintenance benefits and dramatically improved ROI.  Together with the latest management software version, PV4E 3.3, PVMax demonstrates functionality which greatly enhances its value to enterprises of all sizes – from small to very large.  

From initial setup all the way through to day-to-day implementation, PVMax reduces the work load of IT departments.  During the setup of new communications infrastructure, PVMax’s “self-discovery” feature automatically identifies all system elements, verifying and documenting network connectivity, and making setup time simpler and shorter.  The new flexible architecture translates into support for sites of any size, regardless of number of ports.

  

Once installed, organizations can continue to benefit from ongoing implementation of the solution.   To take MAC (Moves, Adds or Changes) efficiency to the next level, RiT has added a highly visible flashing rack indicator to each rack. Within the rack, the specific port to be worked on is indicated by a smaller LED located next to the port. The combination of the flashing rack indicator and the smaller port light make for even faster, more fool-proof, MACs and significantly reduces response time to physical layer faults that cause costly downtime.

Among the other new features in PV4E 3.3, designed to help IT managers and administrators, are event notification to email, pagers, or SMS and the ability to upload software to remote PVMax installations. 

“PatchView has always set the bar for IPLMS performance, and now it is better than ever,” said Liam Galin, President and CEO of RiT Technologies. “PVMax brings a new level of size, speed, intelligence, and flexibility to PatchView deployments, making them even more powerful and cost-effective. The new features reflect RiT’s decade of experience deploying more than 2.5 million managed ports and recent advances in our cutting-edge technologies.” 

Members of the RiT team will be available to demonstrate and explain the PatchView IPLMS, including the PVMax platform and PV4E v3.3, from January 12-15th at its booth #1013 in the BICSI Winter Conference.
