Peraso Inc. announced the scheduled availability of its EtherWaveTM software package supporting the Company's 60 GHz IEEE 802.11ad module products. This solution provides cross platform support, enabling the modules to be used with host devices running Android, Windows and Linux. EtherWave provides support for the standardized Communication Device Class ("CDC") Network Control Module ("NCM") interface which is natively supported on most personal computing platforms. CDC NCM provides for a more efficient method for transporting Ethernet data over USB compared to previously established protocols, such as CDC ECM and EEM.

CDC NCM will allow Peraso's wireless adapter USB 3.0 connection to communicate with the host device without installation of device specific drivers and to expand the range of devices which can utilize 60 GHz wireless for multi-gigabit connectivity. The Company anticipates that its customers will use the EtherWave software package for applications such as AR/VR and tactical communications, among others. EtherWave is in pre-release testing with customers now, and Peraso expects to have general availability supporting Android by the end of second quarter of 2024.

Peraso provides its technology worldwide through system vendors in North America, Asia and Europe and component distributors, including Richardson RFPD.
