About Pedestal Networks

Pedestal Networks, founded in 2001, operated in the connectivity products industry, focusing on developing Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) solutions. The company's primary objective was to assist service providers in overcoming the technical and economic hurdles associated with deploying DSL services. Based in Fremont, California, Pedestal Networks positioned itself as a key developer for an expanding telecommunications market.

The company successfully attracted significant investment, raising a total of $32 million in funding. Notable investors included Benchmark Capital Holdings, DCM Ventures, Duff Ackerman & Goodrich, Skymoon Ventures, and Western Technology Investment. This financial backing enabled the company to develop and market its specialized DSL technologies.

In a significant milestone, Pedestal Networks was acquired by UTStarcom on June 8, 2005. This acquisition marked the culmination of the company's journey as an independent entity, integrating its technology and expertise into a larger telecommunications equipment provider.
