Polaris Networks, Inc develops new generation optical transport switching systems for metro core networks. From day one, its systems combine optical transport with extensive grooming and switching managed via a GMPLS-based common control plane. The Polaris architecture is designed for native support of TDM, cell and packet traffic using a single software-defined switching fabric. This enables service providers to cost-effectively simplify their infrastructures, flexibly scale and provides a smooth migration to a full, multiservice intelligent architecture.

Polaris was founded in June 2000 and is staffed by an accomplished team from Alcatel, Cisco, Fujitsu, Nortel, Siemens, Tellabs, AT&T and WorldCom. The company is funded by Redpoint Ventures, Venrock Associates, SToRM Ventures, Advanced Technology Ventures (ATV) and strategic private investors.
