Acticon Technologies LLC (Acticon) has recently reached an amicable settlement of its patent infringement claims with Dell Computer Corporation of Round Rock, TX, in connection with two of its “smart connector” patents. General Patent Corporation International (GPCI), a leading patent licensing and enforcement firm headquartered in Suffern, New York, represented Acticon in this transaction. “We have now obtained 125 settlements and license agreements for Acticon,” said Paul J. Lerner, GPCI’s Sr. Vice President and General Counsel, “and we look forward to licensing the remaining companies.” Acticon’s “smart connector” patents cover specific aspects of PC cards and other “smart connector” devices used in mobile computer communication, networking, and instrumentation control. GPCI has successfully represented Acticon in 22 litigations and over one hundred licensing negotiations related to these patents.
