"Voice over IP's disruptive effect in the telephony field is undeniable. The Extricom WLAN seeks to be equally disruptive in the enterprise WLAN arena, and voice over Wi-Fi is the trigger for such disruption. The introduction of voice into the mix of WLAN applications changes the stakes in many ways. Most fundamental is the fact that voice demands mobility, and Extricom's unique technology brings real seamless mobility to Wi-Fi, while at the same time enhancing all other facets of performance that are necessary for the enterprise triple play of services," said Gideon Rottem, CEO and founder of Extricom. "We are truly honored to win the wireless category of the highly-coveted Product of the Year Award by INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine and its panel of esteemed editors."
Extricom's patented Interference-Free WLAN system represents the next generation of enterprise Wi-Fi, with a fundamental shift in architecture from "cell-planning" to a "channel blanket" topology. The technology eliminates the co-channel interference that plagues traditional WLAN systems, to deliver seamless and zero-latency mobility, robust, ‘wire-like' client connections, and the ability to design for a guaranteed and predictable level of service for all users. All this, without the iterative and costly RF cell-planning of traditional solutions. The result is a high-performance yet simple solution for powering the enterprise triple play of data, voice (VoWLAN), and video.
"INTERNET TELEPHONY is proud to bestow Extricom with a 2006 Product of the Year Award. Each year INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine recognizes companies that have demonstrated excellence in technological advancement and application refinements," said Rich Tehrani, TMC President and Editor-in-Chief of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine. "Extricom has proven it is committed to quality and excellence while addressing real needs in the marketplace. We're proud to honor their hard work and accomplishments and look forward to more innovative solutions from them in the future."
A full list of Product of the Year winners will be published in the February, 2007 issue of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine (www.itmag.com). For more information about TMC and INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine, please visit http://www.tmcnet.com/ .
