Pactolus Wins VON Magazine Innovator Award

NCited for Solving IP's "Rubic's Cube" of Service Scalability, Cutting Carrier Cap-Ex by an Avg. of 25%, and Simplifying Creation of Advanced Services.

Marlborough and Norwood, Massachusetts - March 5, 2008 -

Pactolus Communications, makers of the industry's most broadly-deployed SIP applications and service creation/delivery solutions, announced today that it has received a 2008 VON Magazine Innovator Award, a prestigious recognition of innovative companies driving the Internet Communications industry.

Pactolus was selected for its RapidFLEX Service Creation Environment (SCE) and Service Delivery Platform (SDP), which automatically protect the performance, scalability and resiliency of advanced carrier services, and cut the costs and time required for service creation and deployment. Several Pactolus resources are offered in open source/open access editions at the www.SIPdev.org developer community.

Its unparalleled service scale was reaffirmed with Global Crossing's recent deployment of the first IP service application to support thousands of users and hundreds of operators per single call with telco-grade reliability and availability. Based on Pactolus' SIPware Event Conferencing and the RapidFLEX platform, the service also set benchmarks for reducing the headcount, power consumption and ports required for large-scale carrier services.

"Pactolus' innovative architecture frees integrators, Tier 1's and innovative service providers to create and introduce new services with assured reliability, performance and scale, while sharply reducing development and delivery costs. VON Magazine's Innovator Awards recognize the Internet Communications industry's best and brightest companies, and we're pleased to include Pactolus Communications as an inaugural winner," said Bill Sell, Publisher, VON Media Group.

"As the industry's only scalable, object-based open source/open access SIP service delivery platform, we're truly honored by this recognition of our commitment to fostering innovation and subscriber growth among service providers, integrators, enterprises and new media companies," concluded Pactolus Founder and CTO David Horton.
