IP Video Services and Expanded Internet Product Offerings
VIRTUALINC SELECTS RADVISION'S GATEKEEPER TECHNOLOGY FOR IMPLEMENTATION
OF NEXT-GENERATION RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM SOLUTION
Mahwah, NJ/Dallas, TX, October 17, 2000 -- RADVision (NASDAQ:RVSN), the leading
provider of award-winning, industry-standard products and technology for
real-time voice and video communication over IP, and VirtuaLINC, a high
bandwidth Internet company providing high-speed Internet services and video
communications products to major hotel chains and corporate users, today
announced that VirtuaLINC would be integrating RADVision's H.323 Gatekeeper
technology into their next-generation resource management system solution for
IP-based videoconferencing services.
VirtuaLINC's total solution provides hotels and corporate users with IP-based
videoconferencing communications, thereby reducing their costs and allowing them
to provide superior technologies in real-time video communications for their
users. VirtuaLINC will use RADVision's Gatekeeper Toolkit to build a customized
gatekeeper application tailored to the needs of their resource management
system. The Gatekeeper Toolkit provides enhanced functionality for multiple zone
support, multiple gateway operation, resource usage control, and PBX-like call
processing.
"Incorporating RADVision's gatekeeper technology will allow VirtuaLINC to
increase capacity and extend H.323 functionality," said John DeMore', CTO for
VirtuaLINC. "After an extensive analysis of the available suppliers, we believe
that RADVision's proven technology building blocks will improve the features and
reliability of our resource management system."
"RADVision is committed to the widespread deployment of real-time voice and
video communications on next-generation networks around the globe," said Dr.
Michelle Blank, RADVision's VP of Galactic Marketing. "With VirtuaLINC's quality
IP video communications network and RADVision's market-leading technology,
consumers can benefit from simple, cost-effective, reliable video communications
at their fingertips, wherever they may be."
The heart of the VirtuaLINC network is the Video Network Operating Center
(VNOC). LINCenter 2.0 is the software application behind the VNOC, and this
software controls every aspect of data and video transmission including:
gateways, voice over IP, collaboration management, multipoint conferencing, real
time transcoding, web broadcasting, billing, reservations, network traffic
analysis and security and authentication.

Within the LINCenter, the VNOC manages the company's global high-bandwidth video
and data network and guarantees the quality of service necessary for high
quality, digital video data streams. Calls using the VirtuaLINC broadband
network (V2PN) pass through the LINCenter and are connected to other end points
on the V2PN Network, or can be connected to any ISDN-based video system in the
world.
RADVision's Gatekeeper Toolkit is used by developers to create customized
gatekeeper applications for managing and controlling H.323 networks. The toolkit
delivers full H.323-compliant call control and registration functionality, and
supports all mandatory ITU H.323 gatekeeper functions. RADVision's Gatekeeper
Toolkit provides the underpinning H.323 technology needed for implementing
"soft-switch" PBX functionality and the vehicle for delivering compelling new IP
services and applications. The toolkit is part of RADVision's broad suite of
V2oIP software enabling technology that includes SIP, Megaco/H.248, MGCP, and
H.323 toolkits.
