Aware

Aware is a leading technology supplier for the telecommunications and biometrics industries.

Aware is the leading provider of DSL silicon intellectual property (IP) to semiconductor companies and has been a pioneer in the DSL industry for over fifteen years. Our StratiPHY? IP product line supports all varieties of DSL and has been broadly licensed to many leading semiconductor companies worldwide. More recently, StratiPHY solutions have established a strong footprint in the initial rollouts of DSL-based IPTV and triple play services positioning Aware's DSL business for growth as the deployment of advanced ADSL2+ and VDSL2 services expands.

Aware also offers advanced DSL test and diagnostics products in the form of hardware and software components we sell to OEMs in the automated test head and outside plant handheld tester industry. IPTV and triple-play require more sophisticated testing and monitoring of DSL networks, which are addressed with the functionality in our hardware and Dr. DSL software solutions.

Aware is also a veteran of the biometrics industry, providing software that targets existing and emerging biometric market opportunities. We have had a strong position in fingerprint enrollment systems and recently added products for border control and secure credential applications.
