Radyne believes that the claim is without merit and invalid In the filing with the court, Radyne denied that the switching technology used in its converters is covered by the Comtech EF Data patent and further claims that the patent itself is not valid.

"Although the business affected by the claim is not significant to Radyne, we believe it is in the best interest of our customers to defend this lawsuit."
