Advanced Computer Communications

Advanced Computer Communications (ACC), founded as Associated Computer Consultants, was a data networking equipment vendor based in Santa Barbara, California. The company began by building IMP interfaces for the ARPANET — initially for IBM 360 mainframes and later for DEC PDP-11 minicomputers — and grew into a maker of wide-area internetworking products for the interconnection and management of distributed computer networks, including carrier-class routers and integrated remote-access gear. In 1990 it sold its ACCES/MVS native TCP/IP stack for MVS to Interlink Computer Sciences. Ericsson agreed to acquire ACC in 1998 for approximately USD 285 million in cash and completed the acquisition that same year, after which ACC ceased to exist as an independent company. ACC predates the public web API era and never operated a developer program, public API, or developer portal; no successor developer surface exists under the ACC name today.

Advanced Computer Communications is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Networking, Router, Wide Area Networking, and Remote Access.
