VoIP Logic’s on demand delivery platform provides an alternative for service providers to deploy a dedicated NexTone platform without having to install software and manage hardware. Using NexTone’s Multiprotocol Session Exchange (MSX), VoIP Logic is able to offer a solution to complex call routing, network topology hiding/IP masking, SIP proxying, SIP firewall, advanced call detail records generation and collection, signaling interoperability and call media stream management.

“More and more service providers are realizing that it is possible to outsource hosting of network applications, and yet retain the control of a facilities based carrier,” said Micah Singer, founder and CEO, VoIP Logic. “VoIP Logic’s offering of globally distributed, hosted and managed products continues to resonate in the marketplace and enables partners like NexTone to achieve exponential growth.”

“VoIP Logic has created an Internet-like outsource model for carriers wishing to rapidly migrate to VOIP, that combines NexTone’s VoIP session management technology with their years of operational experience and know-how,” said Dan Dearing, VP of marketing, NexTone. “This deployment milestone is a testament to the strength of this innovative solution and the VoIP market it serves.”

An example of this partnership’s success is UK-based service provider Real Telekom. Real Telekom has constructed a VoIP network based on the NexTone MSX as their hub. VoIP Logic provides deployment, training, system administration, and support on the entire infrastructure.

“Renting capacity through VoIP Logic offered an attractive alternative to a partition model as it offered us more control: we can access and make changes to our dedicated equipment and we maintain the flexibility to interconnect with any customers and vendors we require. Additionally, the support and SLAs provided by VoIP Logic’s team of experienced and NexTone certified engineers have allowed us to adapt quickly to market changes and capitalize on short-term opportunities. The flexibility enabled by VoIP Logic business model and NexTone’s technology has significantly contributed to the company’s 800 percent growth in 2 years,” said Kanto Kandasamy, managing director, Real Telekom.

NexTone is headquartered in Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA, with domestic and international sales offices worldwide. For more information, visit www.nextone.com.

International VoIP Traffic and VoIP Peering Lead to Worldwide Growth

In the first half of 2006, NexTone experienced significant growth in carrier and enterprise markets around the globe fueled by the rapid adoption of inter-carrier VoIP peering and enterprise SIP trunking. NexTone customers, using the IntelliConnect System, carry over 50% of the world’s international VoIP traffic. Today, NexTone’s products are viewed as the de facto standard for VoIP and IMS peering: 75% of GSMA carriers participating in recent interoperability trials of IMS services used the NexTone IP Multimedia Exchange (IMX) to switch real-time IP multimedia traffic. Likewise, over 50 service providers who are members of the Voice Peering Fabric use NexTone to manage and route their VoIP traffic. The Voice Peering Fabric is the largest marketplace for exchanging VoIP traffic.

NexTone’s rapid growth was further fueled by the addition of 66 new service provider customers, and in the second quarter alone, NexTone increased revenues by 59% from the first quarter of 2006 and by an explosive 187% from the same quarter in 2005. Repeat customer business in the form of upgrades and expansion deployments accounted for 45% of orders. A significant portion of this growth came from Tier 1 and Tier 2 carriers moving their VoIP implementations from the lab environment to production, while existing VoIP carriers built upon their wholesale service offering with new SIP-based retail services.

“In the last six months NexTone has successfully leveraged the momentum we experienced in 2005 by steadily increasing our customer base, with deployments by leading international communications companies, such as Cable & Wireless,” said Malik Khan, chairman and chief executive officer for NexTone. “Today, over 500 carriers and enterprises globally trust their VoIP interconnects to NexTone. The NexTone Compatible Partner Program, the NexTone Interoperability Lab, and NexTone University are all examples of our leadership and commitment to further the development of the IP industry. We believe NexTone is well positioned to continue its sales momentum and leadership for the rest of 2006.”

In addition to its record growth in sales, NexTone expanded its executive staff in the first half of 2006 with the appointment of Yousef Javadi as president and chief operating officer. The company also added telecommunications industry veterans Rocco DiCarlo and Larry Schessel to expand its technology leadership team. NexTone’s industry accolades also grew with the receipt of Network World’s “Clear Choice Test Award” and the Maryland Technology Champions Award. NexTone was also selected as a finalist for the “Hottest Venture Capital Deal” by The Northern Virginia Technology Council.

In 2006, NexTone enhanced its worldwide corporate infrastructure to better serve its rapidly growing customer base. NexTone doubled the size of its worldwide sales team and its total workforce grew by 65%. The company expanded its headquarters floor space by 30% to create the NexTone Interoperability Lab and accommodate the success of NexTone University. NexTone also tripled the size of its London office and added a new office in Miami. In April, NexTone announced its ISO 9001:2000 certification for the company’s quality management system. NexTone attained certification in under six months, due to the company’s focus on quality and its mature quality processes. This achievement is far shorter than the 9-18 months typically required for certification.

Product and Services Innovation Advances IP Services Market and IMS

The first half of 2006 proved to be a period of innovation for NexTone’s suite of session management solutions. NexTone achieved these technology milestones:

– In March, NexTone’s Multiprotocol Session Exchange (MSX) successfully passed the most call-intensive attack test plan executed against any single session border controller (SBC) tested by CT Labs, an independent testing facility. In a reliability test, the NexTone MSX successfully processed over 18.7 million legitimate SIP calls in a 62-hour period while rejecting a SIP-specific denial-of-service (DoS) attack.

– In April, NexTone surpassed its competition in the SBC market by being named Network World’s “Clear Choice Test Award” winner for the publication’s enterprise SBC test. NexTone’s MSX, coupled with its Real-time Session Manager (RSM), was rated the best of the large enterprise-focused SBCs that Network World tested.

– In June, NexTone launched its Dynamic Policy Management functionality for its IntelliConnect System, which allows operators to automatically control interconnects used by real-time sessions. This patent-pending technology is key for service providers as they scale their VoIP and IMS offerings by optimizing service quality, availability, and network capacity.

– Also in June, NexTone launched its Compatible Partner Program in conjunction with its interoperability facility, the NexTone Lab. This program provides multiple levels of certification, ranging from product interoperability to turnkey solutions. The purpose of this initiative is to help service providers accelerate their deployment of VoIP and IMS services by ensuring seamless interoperability between the NexTone IntelliConnect System and other service platforms.

“NexTone has done an excellent job of anticipating the market shift that the standalone session border controller market is currently going through,” said Brian Partridge, senior analyst covering IMS infrastructure at Yankee Group. “By solving the service provider issues related to policy-driven, dynamic session management and the intelligent interconnection of IP networks, NexTone has found ways to innovate within its product portfolio and stay ahead of the curve.”

NewMarket Technology Inc. (OTCBB:NMKT) today announced launching its first Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) business service solution delivered via a broadband wireless network. The Company has implemented the wireless VoIP solution in its Dallas, Texas headquarters and plans to demonstrate the home office solution to prospective clients. The wireless VoIP solution is an exceptionally efficient telephone solution combining the savings of both a VoIP service and a wireless final mile connection. NewMarket anticipates its wireless VoIP solution will accelerate telephone service sales growth to the small and medium business market. This will provide an ideal solution for the initial implementation of telephone service in developing economic regions globally that have not had telephone service previously available.

The wireless VoIP solution represents the combined services of NewMarket affiliates RedMoon Inc. and Xiptel. NewMarket currently owns a 25% stake in RedMoon Inc. The wireless VoIP solution is delivered across RedMoon’s city-wide mesh network installed last year for the City of Addison, Texas. The City of Addison not only utilizes the city-wide mesh network for vital municipal services, but also enables the RedMoon managed service to be available on a subscription basis to its 100,000 plus citizens and daily visitors. Addison has implemented one of the nation’s first city-wide mesh networks where broadband access is available virtually anywhere in the city, from parks to restaurants to businesses (www.moonoveraddison.com). Addison is a model for the modern connected city.

Xiptel is a NewMarket subsidiary. The wireless VoIP solution is delivered through Xiptel’s turnkey VoIP service offering. Xiptel was launched in 2003 and has grown from a start-up to almost $10 million in annualized revenue. Xiptel posted its first profit in the last reported quarterly period. Xiptel provides business VoIP solutions beginning at $14.95 per month (www.xiptel.com).

“Per capita income varies directly with per capita communications,” said Philip Verges, CEO of NewMarket Technology. “Wireless VoIP is a very cost effective telephone service solution and we expect it to sell well in North America where wireless mesh networks become available. Wireless VoIP is the telephone service solution for the masses and will enable developing economic countries and regions that have never had access to telephone service to rapidly increase per capita communications. We have been simultaneously developing a sales infrastructure and refining our emerging communication technology solutions. We anticipate over $20 million in sales respectively from each of our existing operations in Latin America and Asia before the introduction of a wireless VoIP solution. The successful implementation of a wireless VoIP solution in Dallas is significant in moving us one step closer to a long-term objective of providing solutions to developing countries while building profitability for NewMarket.”

The Burlington deployment is a major coup for city officials who struggled for many years - against heavy lobbying by opposing service providers - to change the state’s charter to allow a municipal telecommunications operation.

“By building and operating our own state-of-the-art telecommunications utility we’re introducing more choices to the marketplace, and we’re also nurturing our city’s highly artistic and entrepreneurial culture,” said Burlington Telecom Director Tim Nulty. “Greater than one out of 10 people in Burlington operate a home-based business, and many more - such as graphic artists, software engineers - work remotely from home one or more days out of the week. OSI’s FiberPath 500 system is ideal for large e-file sharing, video streaming, gaming and more. And the best part is we can offer this superior service at 10 - 20 percent less than what the competition charges.”

Now in its first phase of deployment, Burlington Telecom is currently testing services and expects to initiate the complete triple-play to 2,400 homes and businesses by the first of the New Year. The city will seek additional capital lease financing before building out its FTTH network to remaining dwellings in 2006.

“We studied various network architectures and visited many sites - including Optical Solutions’ deployment in Bristol, Virginia - before ultimately selecting GPON,” Nulty said. “The FiberPath 500 system is the most cost-effective and flexible way for the city to build an advanced network because unlike an active electronics system, passive optics allow us to build the underlying network without having to invest in the electronics at the side of the home until someone signs up for services. Moreover, with GPON, we do not have to invest in or maintain outdoor enclosures that require active power and climate control.”

Optical Solutions’ FiberPath 500 system is the industry frontrunner in GPON access solutions. FiberPath 500 offers superlative bandwidth for delivery of advanced services, including symmetrical high-speed data service, IPTV and VoIP, as well as traditional carrier-class voice service - e.g. TDM, POTS, T-1s, E911. The FiberPath 500 system is fully compliant with ITU FSAN standards, and is the market leader in FTTH-based IPTV deployments.

“We are very pleased to be part of this landmark FTTH deployment in Burlington, and we’re excited about the many ways in which our GPON system will be leveraged - from allowing local musicians and film producers to air their concerts and films on a dedicated city arts channel, to giving subscribers static IP addresses so friends around town can join in robust online game play,” said Optical Solutions President and CEO Mike Dagenais. “Burlington is a shining example of how FTTH can enhance quality of life and commerce in a community.”

About Optical Solutions

Optical Solutions is accelerating the transition from legacy to IP-based services in the last mile. The FiberPath(R) fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) system revolutionizes the delivery of IPTV, and leads the industry in triple-play voice, video and data deployments. Optical Solutions’ family of products uses industry standard GPON to deliver incomparable bandwidth to homes and the broader community. Optical Solutions’ primary customers are independent operators and major system suppliers. For more information please visit www.opticalsolutions.com
