Neubiberg, Germany, and San Jose, CA October 09, 2007 – Infineon Technologies (FSE/NYSE: IFX) and Jungo Ltd., today announced a partnership to deliver production-ready, carrier-grade reference designs for the multi-service residential gateway market.

“This cooperation with Jungo, the market leader in embedded software for residential gateways, will enable our customers to bring their products faster to market and leverage the silicon’s value and capabilities”, said Christian Wolff, Senior Vice President of the Communication Solutions business group and General Manager of the Wireline Access business unit at Infineon. “Furthermore this partnership will help, complete our offerings in the residential gateway market and additionally strengthen our business.”

“Jungo's vision of the ‘digital home’ is one where the operator offers a plethora of managed value-added-services. By delivering managed easy-to-use targeted services, the provider can both retain and reclaim the customer relationship, and maximize the revenue potential of the subscriber base,” said Ofer Vilenski, Jungo's CEO.  “Jungo and Infineon are helping operators drive this vision," he commented.

Infineon is focusing on three key areas of business: Energy Efficiency, Communications and Security. The company plan to grow in these areas and strengthen existing businesses. This partnership contributes positively to Infineon’s CPE-business and growth in the Communications area.
