(OSLO: TAA. OL), the leading global provider of telepresence, high-definition=
video conferencing and mobile video solutions, and BroadSoft, Inc., the=
leading worldwide provider of VoIP applications, today announced at the=
BroadSoft Connections 2009 Users’ Conference in Scottsdale, Ariz., that=
the companies have extended their joint solution capabilities through additional=
TANDBERG product interoperability and applications. Now, it is even easier=
for service providers to deliver integrated video and voice solutions to=
businesses of any size through a Software as a Service (SaaS) model.=0D=0A”The=
ability to easily integrate high-definition video and VoIP conferencing=
is becoming a priority for businesses of all sizes. The extended capabilities=
of the BroadSoft TANDBERG partnership will make it even easier and more=
cost effective for our customers to deploy the technology across their=
organizations,” said PCCW Global CEO Marc Halbfinger. “PCCW is providing=
these services to enterprises using our global IP-MPLS network. We have=
seen increased interest from customers who want to make integrated video=
and VoIP capabilities accessible for all of their employees to enhance=
the quality of their business operations and help their people collaborate=
more effectively.”=0D=0AWith BroadSoft’s Device Management functionality,=
the configuration and provisioning of TANDBERG video products is now seamlessly=
integrated with BroadWorks business applications. The TANDBERG E20 [http://www.tandberg.com/personal-video-conferencing/video-voip-E20.jsp?cid=3D04US070043001&elq=3D8e2adca9662841dab714a58ea642ee24]=
can now be deployed by service providers using the same management and=
provisioning processes they use today for traditional VoIP phones and devices.=
This single, unified service activation process for both audio and video=
aspects of unified communications solutions speeds and eases the integration=
process for service providers and customers. In addition, BroadSoft is=
tightly integrated with TANDBERG Multipoint Control Units (MCUs), which=
enable hosted multipoint video conferencing, so service providers can deliver=
video conferencing as a cloud service to businesses. =0D=0A”The usage of=
visual communications has tripled in the last year, making video a critical=
component of any business communication solution,” said David Bukovsky,=
vice president of products at BroadSoft. “We will continue to enhance our=
joint solutions with TANDBERG to ensure service providers can take innovative=
video solutions to market.” =0D=0AThe enhanced TANDBERG/BroadSoft solution=

makes it easy for service providers to create customized solutions for=
all their customers, regardless of size. Organizations that may have lacked=
the resources to deploy on-premise video communications solutions enterprise-wide=
can now capitalize on the benefits of video unified communications through=
the TANDBERG/BroadSoft solution. A streamlined deployment process coupled=
with the advanced features of TANDBERG’s easy-to-use products provides=
an all-in-one video/audio solution that eliminates the need for a separate=
office phone. =0D=0A”The BroadSoft/TANDBERG hosted business video communications=
solution makes it easier for service providers to offer their customers=
enterprise-wide video collaboration solutions. This easy to manage solution=
is key to accelerating the adoption of video so companies of all sizes=
can reap the benefits of visual communications,” said H=E5kon Dahle, TANDBERG=
Chief Technologist. “Simplifying the management and integration of video=
is especially crucial for the small and medium sized business market that=
is often reliant on efficient and effective managed services to drive technology=
integration. We look forward to continuing to build on this partnership=
with BroadSoft to deliver even more enhanced capabilities to help drive=
the adoption of video.”=0D=0AFor more information about the TANDBERG/BroadSoft=
