Kayote Networks Hosted VoIP Traffic Management Solution Wins TMC Internet Telephony Magazine Product of the Year Award

"FronTier" Advanced Hosted VoIP Traffic Management Solution Brings Vast Experience to Carriers Straight out of the Box

PASSAIC, New Jersey - January 11, 2006 - Kayote Networks, Inc., experts in Voice over IP (VoIP) interconnectivity technology and developer of advanced IP communication services announced today that its flagship hosted VoIP solution, FronTier, has been chosen as a recipient of "Product of the Year" Award by Technology Marketing Company (TMC), publisher of Internet Telephony® and Communications Solutions™ magazines.

Many companies are spending small fortunes setting up their own VoIP operations which require elaborate Session Border Controllers (SBCs) and routing engine hardware, software licensing agreements, and expensive support contracts. However, this still leaves VoIP networks with extensive interoperability challenges. Kayote's FronTier combines the features of an SBC and routing engine with robust management and reporting tools, all within a secure environment. This provides carriers and ITSPs with the most advanced, field-proven interconnectivity solution currently available and FronTier helps companies achieve fast time to market, providing a cost effective alternative to complex installations and dedicated resources.

"We are honored that FronTier has been chosen for this award," commented Baruch Sterman, CEO of Kayote Networks. "As the complexities of running VoIP networks become increasingly apparent, many more companies are considering hosted solutions as an alternative to buying hardware and supporting resources dedicated to integration, maintenance, and never-ending development. This award from TMC recognizes the shift in the market and we look forward to strong growth as the market matures."

"Companies, such as Kayote, that are selected to receive INTERNET TELEPHONY® Product of the Year Awards for 2005 have been instrumental in the explosive growth of VoIP and the larger IP telephony industry this year," said Rich Tehrani, TMC President and Editor-in-Chief of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine. "We're proud to reward their hard work and innovation."

According to Editorial Director Greg Galitzine, "The Product of the Year awards exemplifies the best that this industry has to offer. The companies earning this distinction have demonstrated a commitment to quality, and a commitment to the further development of the IP telephony industry through their contributions. All winners deserve this great honor, and I look forward to seeing other innovative solutions from them as they continue to contribute to the future of VoIP and IP telephony."
