Based in the Research Triangle Park in North Carolina, Hatteras Networks came into existence to develop equipment to enable carriers and service providers to deliver high-bandwidth reliable business services to business locations that are not served by fiber.  This large opportunity is fueled by the very large bandwidth and services gap that currently exists between a traditional T1/E1 service and next-generation fiber-based services.

Hatteras Networks is redefining the way carriers think about Ethernet services. Hatteras Networks’ Ethernet service delivery solutions are leading service providers worldwide to a significant expansion of the Metro Ethernet market, which had previously been limited by legacy technologies in the access network. Now service providers are empowered to cost-effectively offer 100 Mbps Ethernet services over existing facilities, enabling businesses to migrate from legacy networks to transparent Ethernet services for voice and data business connectivity, infrastructure backhaul and mobile wireless backhaul solutions.

The executive management team of Hatteras Networks is comprised of veteran industry leaders with a proven track record of transforming innovative ideas into world-class solutions to build highly successful companies. With many years of experience developing the products and platforms that have reshaped the economics of both the enterprise and carrier network infrastructure, Hatteras Networks' management team brings unique insight into the challenges and opportunities facing telecommunications service providers as they look to enhance and extend the value of their access networks.
