San Jose, Calif., August 20, 2002 - Jungo Software Technologies Inc., a leading provider of residential gateway software and technologies, today announced that it is participating in CableLabs® CableHome™ initiative to help define the CableHome™ specifications, and is participating in a royalty-free intellectual property rights (IPR) pool.

Through compliance with the CableHome™ specifications, vendors will be able to create products that are interoperable, and in turn, reduce costs, time to market and system complexity.
