Press Release Summary = Telesoft Technologies has announced the introduction of the
MPAC PCIe combined E1/T1 and IP SS7 signalling and media boards designed for the PCI
express form factor.

Press Release Body = Blandford, Dorset- May 29, 2007 - Telesoft will deliver a
complete range of varying specification PCIe cards over the coming months, starting
with a high performance low profile card which can be deployed in virtually any PCIe
chassis on the market today. As with all Telesoft MPAC boards the MPAC PCIe fully
supports the entire range of Telesoft telephony stacks, protocols and application
interfaces. As a result this provides a broad base of protocol support and the
ability for existing and new customers to quickly and easily integrate this new form
factor.

Intelligent design and utilization of latest generation chipsets from leading
suppliers means that the MPAC PCIe can match the capacity of the existing PCI and
cPCI form factor cards, in a quarter of the footprint. The MPAC PCIe low profile
form factor is the smallest available, being half the height and length of a
traditional PCI card. Supplied as a single lane device, it can be deployed in any
PCIe base specification 1.1 compliant slots on the market today; including full
length, half length and low profile slots.

The first cards to be commercially available will include a 6 E1/T1 telephony board,
and a combined 4 E1/T1 plus Gb Ethernet board for converged network deployments.
Support for a wide range of SS7 telephony protocols is augmented by the addition of
IP based protocols such as SIGTRAN, RTP, CESoPSN and SIP. This is further enhanced
with features such as H.324m termination and de-multiplexing allowing video and
voice to be streamed over RTP. The MPAC PCIe board is also capable of operating in
terminating and fully non-intrusive monitoring mode, making it highly suitable for
surveillance, Lawful Interception and OSS activities.

Telesoft intends to introduce these new cards at an extremely competitive price/
performance level, making it an attractive platform for System Integrators,
Application Developers, OEMs and TEMs. The base card can be deployed with low level
MTP2 APIs, or include many higher layer application interfaces such as TCAP, MAP,
CAMEL, ISUP, BICC and many others. With the Gb Ethernet option selected the MPAC
PCIe provides further support for IP based telephony protocols such as SIGTRAN and
also the ability to stream voice and video over RTP or CESoPSN, making it a highly
flexible converged network platform.

Gary Barter, product manager for Telesoft\'s MPAC telephony boards explained,
\"Telesoft has a long history of producing high capacity and highly flexible
telephony add-in cards over many years, this has included ISA, PCI and cPCI, so it
is a logical progression for us to adopt this new expansion bus architecture.\"

\"Leading chassis vendors are already producing PC and server based equipment with
limited PCI expansion capacity and in many cases no PCI slots at all and this
process is certainly accelerating. Therefore it is very important to our existing
and new customers, that Telesoft offers a powerful and cost effective PCIe solution
to enable the continued deployment of existing applications and the rapid
development of new solutions based on this new architecture.\"

\"The MPAC PCIe is incredibly powerful given its small form factor and provides
developers with the opportunity to develop SS7 and IP based solutions in both
terminating and non-intrusive monitoring modes. I am confident that users will be as
delighted as I am with this latest generation offering from Telesoft.\"
