Opengear designs and manufactures network gateways which enable secure remote access and control of all the computers and devices in distributed networks. Our appliances are built on the uClinux embeddable distribution (http://uclinux.org) using the GCC tool chain. Engineers use a range of Linux distributions as their development environments. Ubuntu, Debian and Gentoo are the most common. Our sales team uses SugarForge (http://sugarforge.org) to manage Customer Relationships, and our offices use the Asterisk phone system internally. Opengear is committed to releasing development tools, sources and hardware specifications to the community.
