FTEL NEWS OUT Franklin Telecom Receives Best of Show for Internet Telephony Products Award Goes to Tempest System's Billing Authorization Server WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 3, 1998--Franklin Telecom (OTC:FTEL - news) today announced its Tempest(r) IP Telephony System won the ''Best of CTI(TM) EXPO'' award for outstanding products and services demonstrated at the Spring '98 Expo, which just concluded in Baltimore. CTI Expo, sponsored by Technology Marketing Corp.'s (TMC) CTI, Internet Telephony(TM), and C@ll Center Solutions(TM) magazines, is the leading educational forum on the emerging field of Computer-Telephony Integration. According to TMC editors and engineers, ''Nominations were judged based on technological innovation. An emphasis was placed on a product's feature set, ability to work with existing standards, and the degree to which it contributed to the development of future CTI, Internet telephony and call center products and services.'' Franklin is the first and only Internet Telephony company to incorporate invoicing technology with Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) hardware. The Billing & Authorization Server, which supports credit, debit, pre-paid and other account types, enables real time Web based customer tracking as well as managing the subscriber database. As a call is placed, the Server has two primary functions: it authenticates the user code (PIN number) and verifies that the account has sufficient credit; it then routes the call by the timeliest and most cost efficient means possible. The Tempest Billing & Authorization Server runs on Windows NT with SQL Server, and is highly scalable. It can support a very large network of VoIP Gateways, using a state-of-the-art client/server architecture. Frank Peters, president and CEO of Franklin, said, ''Two hundred of the world's most technologically advanced companies, including Lucent, AT&T, Natural Microsystems and Ericsson, participated in the CTI Expo. To be judged among these companies and come away with a best of show award makes us feel enormously proud. This is the third time in the last eight months that the Tempest system has won a best of show award.'' The primary business of Franklin Telecom, founded in 1981, is the design and manufacturing of communications devices, high speed LAN, WAN, Telco and Satellite Systems and software. Franklin has an installed base of over 100,000 nodes worldwide. Franklin's Internet subsidiaries, FNet and Internet Passport provide services using FTEL products.
