OfficeServ 7400 Recognized for Outstanding Innovation

RICHARDSON, Texas -- Samsung BCS' award-winning convergence platform, the OfficeServ[TM] 7400, has been given the ultimate gold star from Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC([R]))'s INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine (www.itmag.com). The publication has named OfficeServ[TM] 7400 a recipient of the 2006 Product of the Year Award. INTERNET TELEPHONY has been the VoIP Authority Since 1998[TM].

"The power of IP convergence and the large enterprise no longer have a mutually exclusive relationship," said Samsung Business Communication Systems Director of Marketing and Business Development Ann Irwin. "With the OfficeServ 7400, we're bringing convergence to a different class of business - the 500 lines and under crowd. At Samsung BCS, our mission is to help these businesses become more productive and communicate efficiently. We are pleased that INTERNET TELEPHONY recognizes our dedication to our products and our customers."

The OfficeServ 7400 is a unique enterprise-class system that offers high port capacity, a gigabit Ethernet backbone using the GWIMT router, GPSIMT layer 3 switch and 64-channel MGI cards that enable larger VoIP applications and support for up to 500 users. This all-in-one solution, with full data and voice network management from the same platform, effectively eliminates many of the administrative complications facing network managers today. And, migration from TDM to IP technology is also virtually painless since OfficeServ 7400 supports both technologies, allowing your business to migrate as methodically as your individual cost benefit analysis permits. The OfficeServ 7400 can be configured based on the customer's specific need -- IP devices only, IP and TDM , TDM only, wireless, or as a 100 percent data only server -- the OfficeServ 7400 can be easily configured based on the end-user's specific needs, giving it a very unique position in the market.

"INTERNET TELEPHONY is proud to bestow Samsung BCS with a 2006 Product of the Year Award," said TMC President and Editor-in-Chief of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine Rich Tehrani. "Each year INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine recognizes companies that have demonstrated excellence in technological advancement and application refinements. Samsung BCS has proven they are committed to quality and excellence while addressing real needs in the marketplace. We're delighted to honor their hard work and accomplishments and look forward to more innovative solutions from them in the future."
