Octasic Receives INTERNET TELEPHONY® Magazine’s 11th Annual Product of the Year Award

Vocallo Video Recognized for Outstanding Innovation

MONTREAL, Canada – January 19, 2009 – Octasic (News - Alert) Inc., a leading innovator of media processing solutions, announced today that Technology Marketing Corporation’s (TMC®) INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine (www.itmag.com) has named Vocallo Video as a recipient of its 2008 Product of the Year Award.

Octasic’s Vocallo multi-core media gateway solution is the industry’s first DSP platform for voice and video over IP applications. Vocallo Video transcodes large numbers of video streams, while maintaining video quality on error-prone and bandwidth-constrained wireless networks. All Vocallo video codecs include error resilience and concealment, minimizing the effects of packet loss. Vocallo’s video enhancement software includes support for industry standards, including H.263, MPEG-4 and H.264. In addition, Vocallo’s unique, proprietary bit rate controller provides superior video quality on low bandwidth connections – such as those found in mobile networks.

“We are honored that our Vocallo Video solution has been chosen to receive the Product of the Year Award from INTERNET TELEPHONY,” said Andrew Faulkner, Octasic’s director of product marketing. “Video will continue to have a huge impact on the industry as we enter 2009 and we are pleased that our innovation in this key technology area – as well as the quality of our product – has been validated by those who know the market so well.”
“INTERNET TELEPHONY is pleased to grant a 2008 Product of the Year Award for Vocallo Video. Octasic has proven they are committed to quality and excellence while addressing real needs in the marketplace,” said Rich Tehrani (News - Alert), TMC President and Editor-in-Chief of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine. “We’re proud to honor their accomplishments in the advancement of IP communications 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, 2009 issue of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine, (www.itmag.com). INTERNET TELEPHONY has been the authority in IP communication since 1998™.
