American Access Technologies, Inc. Adds BMW to Growing Customer List

    LAKE MARY, Fla.--Jan. 13, 2000--American Access Technologies, Inc. today announced that luxury automobile manufacturer BMW has logged its first order for 20 raised-floor zone cabling cabinets, currently being installed in BMW's new computer center at its American manufacturing plant in Greer, SC. A second phase is planned.
    Brad Wilson, representing Structured Cabling Specialists, negotiated the project through Anicom Inc. distributors in Greenville and Charlotte S.C. Wilson said the zone cabling cabinets will serve as "the brain for all the BMW networking equipment, including product design and information. BMW likes it because it save them space, time and money."
    Anicom's Steve Pace said with cabling routed under the floor, "BMW's state-of-the-art telecom network is consolidated and flexible."
    American Access manufactures zone cabling units that mount in ceilings, raised floors, and in custom furniture. The Company's concept of "zone cabling" reduces costs of installation and maintenance by as much as 70%, while providing versatility for voice and data infrastructures.
    Along with privately-held BMW, publicly-held companies that are customers of American Access include: Sun Microsystems ; Lucent Technologies ; IONA ; SGI ; Baan Company N.V. ; Qwest Communications International Inc. ; Fina, Inc. ; First Data Corporation ; Gateway 2000 Inc. ; Harris Corporation ; Household International Inc. ; Iomega Corporation ; Mobil Corporation ; Cisco Systems, Inc. , Level 3 Communications, Inc. ; and several private corporations, school districts and other government entities also are American Access customers.
