RADVision's Market Leading H.323 Products Receive Numerous Product of the Year Awards CTI and Internet Telephony Editors and Engineers Select RADVision's Products <> December 15, 1998 MAHWAH, N.J., Dec. 14 /PRNewswire/ For the second year in a row, CTI Magazine selected RADVision's H.323 Protocol Stack to receive their prestigious "Product of the Year Award." The Protocol Stack was also named by Internet Telephony Magazine to be awarded their distinguished 1998 "Product of the Year Award" in the H.323 Protocol Stack category. RADVision's MCU-323 and H.323 Gatekeeper were also awarded CTI Magazine's 1998 "Product Year of the Award." The MCU was one of four winners in the Conferencing/Multimedia category along with Intel, Nortel and White Pine. RADVision's H.323 Gatekeeper was selected along with VocalTec's gatekeeper in the Internet Telephony Gatekeeper category. In announcing the Product of the Year Awards, Rich Tehrani, group publisher, said, "CTI Magazine and Internet Telephony Magazine pride themselves on having the most in-depth and objective product reviews of any telecom or datacom publications. Tremendous resources have been devoted to developing TMC Labs and the TMC Lab's engineers, and CTI and Internet Telephony magazine editors spent many weeks picking the most important and influential products for 1998. Both magazines' Product of the Year Awards are designed to draw attention to those vendors whose products have helped redefine a fledgling technological anomaly into an unimagined telecommunications (r)evolution. RADVision's H.323 Protocol Stack, OnLAN-323 Gatekeeper, and MCU-323 Multipoint Control Unit are among the most forward thinking and useful products announced in the field of voice/data convergence -- a field that is abundant with new products." Michelle Blank, president of RADVision, Inc., said, "It is satisfying to see continued recognition of our market leading H.323 building blocks. We are committed to delivering best-of-breed solutions across our breadth of products and these awards reflect that commitment. We are truly grateful that CTI and Internet Telephony recognize RADVision's ability to quickly transform its knowledge and understanding of the evolving H.323 standard into a fully featured and highly functional family of products." H.323 Protocol Stack In 1997, its initial year of commercial availability, RADVision's standard-setting H.323 Protocol Stack Version 1.5 became the most widely used stack by third-party developers. The H.323 Protocol Stack includes a package of software modules that performs all the functions that are needed to establish voice/video/data communication over IP networks (IP telephony and multimedia communications). It enables OEMs/developers to rapidly bring to market interoperable H.323 Version 2-compliant products eliminating months of software development time. H.323 Gatekeeper RADVision's Gatekeeper is an essential tool for administration and management of H.323 networks running on IP telephony and multimedia (voice, video and data) communication applications. The Gatekeeper delivers full H.323-compliant call control and registration functionality. It supports all mandatory ITU H.323 gatekeeper functions such as application registration, address translation, bandwidth management and directory services. In addition, the H.323 Gatekeeper provides enhanced functionality for multiple zone support, multiple gateway operation, resource usage control, network topology-based call routing, and PBX-like call processing. MCU-323 Multipoint Control Unit Specially designed for enterprise workgroup collaboration, RADVision's MCU delivers a significant price/performance breakthrough for multimedia multipoint conferencing. Simple to install and easy to use, the MCU is an out-of-the box solution that allows up to nine people (in one large group or multiple smaller teams) to spontaneously start full multimedia or voice-only multipoint conferences.
