Intersymbol: Series B with $5m
si Team
Intersymbol completed a first round of venture financing in June 2001. The round was led by Indianapolis based venture capital firm CID Equity Partners, and also included Washington based venture firm Telecommunications Development Fund and the Champaign Urbana Venture Fund.
Intersymbol's most recent round of venture financing closed in September 2002, and was led by Champaign based venture capital firm Open Prairie Ventures and included Intel Capital, Madison based venture firm Venture Investors and existing investors.
Intersymbol's high-speed optical receiver IC's, which are meant for next generation long-haul and metro optical networks, incorporate custom signal processing techniques, architectures and circuitry at optical data rates.
"The introduction of signal processing elements results in dramatically increased tolerance to signal dispersion and distortion as compared to conventional clock-data-recovery (CDR) optical receiver IC's. The impact for carriers and network providers is the ability to reduce the probability of network "outage," increased performance of existing optical links and deploy next generation networks with dramatically lower cost," says Naresh Shanbhag, CTO of Intersymbol.
