Occam Networks Company Description
Occam Networks keeps it simple. The company -- named for a 14th-century monk who asserted that the best explanation is the least complex -- makes telecom transmission equipment that lets carriers offer traditional and IP (Internet protocol) services over a single, converged network. Its Broadband Loop Carrier (BLC) platform transmits voice signals and packet-based data over the "last mile" of phone networks. Occam also sells cabinets to house the BLC system. The company sells directly to carriers and through resellers. Venture capital firms U.S. Venture Partners and Norwest Venture Partners collectively own about 27% of Occam Networks.
