RADVISION PERFORMANCE CHALLENGE AT VON SPRING FOCUSES ON IMPACT OF NETWORK
CONSIDERATIONS ON ASSESSING H.323 PERFORMANCE
At VON Spring 2000 in San Jose during March 27-30, visitors to RADVision's booth
#405/407 can participate in the RADVision Performance Challenge and learn all
about how to assess H.323 performance in call scenarios of varying complexity.
RADVision's Performance Challenge handout includes guidelines for measuring
H.323 performance and presents performance results for version 2.6 running on a
750 Mhz IntelTM Pentium TM III processor-based systems. Performance results
range from 1400 call per second for lab tests that do not take network
considerations into account to 100 calls per second for more realistic test
scenarios which include networking considerations. Performance results are
contrasted to real world performance of 40 calls per second for average central
office switches in circuit-switched networks.
RADVision's V2oIP family of enabling technology for real-time voice and video
communication over IP technology allows OEMs/developers to rapidly bring to
market interoperable standards compliant products and services for next
generation converged networks. The company's impressive list of IP telephony
toolkit licensees includes industry giants and innovative startups. RADVision's
H.323 protocol has been implemented in IP communication products and services
from Cisco, HP, Nortel, Siemens, Mitel, Dialogic, Natural Microsystems, Polycom,
Telogy Networks, White Pine and many others.

RADVision Ships MGCP Toolkits and Showcases MGCP Interoperability
at VON Spring 2000 with
Texas Instruments and AudioCodes
RADVISION MGCP TOOLKITS SUCCESSFULLY TESTED WITH MORE THAN A DOZEN VENDORS
AT PACKETCABLE INTEROP EVENT
Mahwah, New Jersey, March 28, 2000 -- RADVision Inc. (NASDAQ:RVSN), the leading
provider of award-winning, industry-standard products and technology for
real-time voice and video communication over IP, today announced the immediate
availability of its suite of MGCP (Media Gateway Control Protocol) toolkits,
providing building blocks for Next Generation Media Gateways and Media Gateway
Controllers.
NEWEST IP TOOLKITS FROM V2OIP EXPERTS SHIPS AFTER SUCCESSFUL INTEROPERABILITY
TESTING
At the recent MGCP interop event hosted by PacketCable, March 6th
through 10th, in Denver, CO, RADVision successfully tested its client and server
MGCP toolkits with more than a dozen vendors. As the technology leader in
standards based building blocks for real-time voice and video over IP
communications, RADVision has a longstanding reputation as the champion for
interoperability. Since 1996, the company has been a regular participant in
interop events hosted by industry consortia bodies such as the IMTC, and more
recently, at PacketCable and SoftSwitch MGCP interops.
At VON Spring 2000 in San Jose, California, from March 28 to 30, RADVision will
be demonstrating MGCP interoperability with Texas Instruments, (NYSE:TXN), the
world's market leader in digital signal processors (DSP), analog, and software
for voice over packet applications, and AudioCodes Ltd. (NASDAQ:AUDC), a leading
provider of enabling technologies and communication system components for voice
over packet networks. The demonstration will show interoperability between
AudioCode and TI's Media Gateways software and RADVision's simulated IP Phone
and Call Agent using RADVision's MGCP stack.
MGCP separates the signaling, call control and media internetworking into
distinct, logical entities for gateway decomposition architectures. MGCP-based
products and services include two sub-components, the Media Gateway and the
Media Gateway Controller. The Media Gateway is responsible for handling media
endpoints, resources and connections. MGCP is a complementary protocol to H.323
that was designed for direct session setup and control between intelligent
endpoints on an IP network.

RADVision's first generation MGCP toolkits are based on the latest MGCP
specification -- MGCP 1.0, and support the MGCP/NCS profile adopted by the
CableLabsTM consortium. The IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) and ITU-T
(International Telecommunications Union - T) are working closely on the
development of MGCP. The new protocol that is evolving out of this joint effort
is the H.248/MEGACO. As a participant in this effort, RADVision was able to
design its MGCP toolkits in a way that allows for easy migration to compliance
with the emerging H.248/MEGACO protocol.
The evolution of the MGCP, its architecture and relationship to H.323 are
discussed in a RADVision MGCP overview, available at RADVision's booth #405 at
VON. After March 30th, the overview will be available on the RADVision website.
RADVision's MGCP toolkits are the newest addition to its family of V2oIP
developer toolkits for real-time voice and video over IP. All RADVision toolkits
are modular and include extensive APIs, which can be tailored to suit customers'
needs. RADVision's new family of MGCP toolkits includes:
o MGCP MGC protocol for building MGCP compliant Media Gateway Controllers
o MGCP MG protocol for building MGCP compliant voice over IP Media Gateways
o Testing Tools: IP Phone, Call Agent & Monitor
o Standard set of optional MGCP packages
o SNMP Agent/Sub Agent MIBs Interface for Network Management with Java GUI
