Internet Telephony’s Product of the Year Awarded to =
TANDBERG Video Communication Server

Award Winning Product Also Achieves Esteemed Security =
Certification

NEW YORK AND OSLO, NORWAY, March 12, 2008 – =
TANDBERG=AE (OSLO: TAA. OL), a leading global provider of telepresence, high-definition videoconferencing and =
mobile video solutions, today announced that its TANDBERG Video =
Communication Server (VCS) has received Internet Telephony’s =
Product of the Year Award. The VCS, a bridge between H.323-enabled and =
SIP-enabled networks, was selected for demonstrating the vision, =
leadership and attention to detail that are the hallmarks of the =
award.

“The Product of the Year Awards exemplify the best this industry has =
to offer,” stated Greg Galitzine, editorial director of TMC, the =
publisher of Internet Telephony. “With nearly 500 applications this =
year, the judging process was difficult but the selected winners have =
demonstrated a commitment to quality and the continued development of =
the IP telephony industry.”

The award-winning VCS was also honored with a certification by ICSA =
Labs, an independent division of Verizon Business and a vendor neutral =
testing and certification body for hundreds of the world’s top =
security vendors. ICSA Labs assessed the ability of the VCS to maintain =
existing security and integrity levels on a network while not negatively =
affecting existing security controls or introducing security =
vulnerabilities.

The VCS, a bridge between H.323-enabled and SIP-enabled networks, is =
at the core of TANDBERG’s leading SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) =
solution. SIP will bring to video communications familiar tools such as =
call forwarding, transferring and holding, and will provide support for =
new features such as mobility and presence. For example, the =
FindMe™ feature of the TANDBERG VCS allows users to have their =
calls forwarded to multiple devices and choose where the call goes if =
there is no answer.

“While H.323 has been widely implemented by voice and =
videoconferencing equipment manufacturers in the past, SIP forms the =
building block of unified communications solutions,” said Andrew Davis, =
Senior Analyst for Wainhouse Research. “TANDBERG’s VCS enables =
videoconferencing equipment to plug into enterprise-wide communications =
and collaboration systems.”

“We are excited to receive the prestigious Product of the Year award =
from Internet Telephony,” said Peter Nutley, director of global product =
marketing at TANDBERG. “With ICSA certification and innovative features =
like FindMe, the TANDBERG Video Communication Server is further securing =
TANDBERG’s position as the industry leading video provider for =
unified communications.”
