"The more companies we have working together toward a single standards-based approach to IP transmission, the better," said Michael Cronk, AIMS board chair. "That's why we're so pleased to welcome Juniper Networks, Atos, Encompass, and sonoVTS. We are particularly pleased this month to welcome four companies representing entirely different segments of our industry: an IP networking company, an IT services company, a broadcast services provider, and a systems design and rental company.
