Cantata Receives 2006 Product of the Year Award from Communications Solutions

NEEDHAM, Mass. May 10, 2007-Cantata Technology, one of the world's leading providers of enabling communications technology, announced today that Technology Marketing Corporation's (TMC) Communications Solutions has named its IMG 1010™ Integrated Media and Signaling VoIP Gateway as a recipient of a 2006 Product of the Year Award.

The IMG 1010 is an integrated media and signaling VoIP gateway that provides any-to-any network connectivity, enabling delivery of SIP services into legacy SS7, PRI and CAS networks, as well as IP-to-IP transcoding to connect IP networks using different protocols. The IMG 1010 offers the widest range of network interfaces in a compact, high density 1U package, allowing service providers to deploy applications across fixed and mobile networks worldwide.

"I congratulate Cantata for winning the well-deserved Product of The Year award for its IMG 1010 VoIP Media Gateway," said Jeff Ellentuck, chief executive officer, Waveleap Communications, a premier provider of wholesale IP-based call termination and conversion services. "After a thorough evaluation of several leading media gateway products, we selected the IMG 1010 for its rich transcoding features, attractive cost of ownership, and ability to easily interconnect with the Voice Peering Fabric. No other commercially available media gateway product could match the flexibility or the rapid five month ROI that we expect to achieve with the IMG 1010. We fully intend to add more IMG 1010 units to our network in the future."

"The IMG 1010's selection as Product of the Year is another example of its growing influence and strong demand among the global communications service provider community," said Tim Murray, chief executive officer, Cantata Technology, Inc. "We are proud to accept this award for our truly innovative product, the IMG 1010, that in less than two years of commercial availability, has already been deployed by more than 55 carriers in 20 countries spanning five continents."

"Cantata has been recognized with a 2006 Product of the Year Award for its excellence in technological advancement and application refinement," said Rich Tehrani, TMC President and Group Editor-in-Chief of Communications Solutions. "Cantata has proven it is committed to quality and excellence in solutions that benefit the customer experience as well as ROI for the companies that use them. I am pleased to honor their hard work and accomplishments and look forward to more innovative solutions from them in the future."

The seventh annual Communications Solutions Product of the Year Award recognizes the vision, leadership and attention to detail that are the hallmarks of the prestigious award.
