GERMANTOWN, MD, June 28, 1999--- Industry journalists and event sponsors from Technology Marketing Corporation have named TEK DigiTel’s debut product a winner in the CTI EXPO Best of Show awards at the Spring 99 event held last month. The show ranks among the premier industry forums focusing on IP Telephony and voice/data convergence. TMC editors from both CTI and Internet Telephony magazines judged entrants on the basis of technological innovation and potential impact on the evolving global markets for converged solutions.

A strategic migration tool for Internet-based communications, TEK DigiTel’s iGATE telephony gateway helps Internet Telephony Service Providers (ITSPs) easily introduce competitive alternatives to traditional voice services by using the public Internet and/or managed IP networks. A customer premise solution optimized for small and remote office locations, iGATE works with or replaces the traditional data-only router, adding Internet connectivity for conventional telephones and fax machines. As TEK DigiTel expands the V-Server platform with additional "PBX-like" voice call-handling features, service providers gain a powerful tool for differentiating Internet Voice offerings, increasing traffic volumes, and making the migration to new services seamless for customers.

TEK DigiTel’s V-Server iGATE has already attracted partnerships and OEM agreements with leading providers of carrier network equipment and suppliers to service providers in the Pacific Rim, Western Europe, South Africa, and South America. These relationships and a six-month development lead give TEK DigiTel early inroads into the final sector of the IP telephony market: the customer premise piece.
