Press Release Body: Elfiq Networks is proud to announce two new models of its Link
Load Balancer appliances built on a next generation hardware platform named the E
Series. The Elfiq LB-1500E is a new rackmount entry-level Link Load Balancer
supporting up to 8 links and 75 Mbps of throughput. It supports hardware LAN
failover and requires less than 25W of power consumption. More than competitively
matched and priced, the LB-1500E redefines the entry-level playing field because it
also supports Elfiq's highly praised SitePathMPTX technology for firewall/VPN
resilience and GeoLink geographical link load balancing.

The Elfiq LB-4000E is designed for datacenters with 8 gigabit ports (copper) and 2
SFP fiber connectors in a compact 1U design. It is licensed with two virtual
instances (up to five) of the Link Load Balancer and has three pairs of programmable
LAN failover ports. With this new powerful product, customers will be able to handle
over a gigabit per second of throughput, meeting the demand of top data centers
around the world.

"The exciting new E Series models are based on the Elfiq enhanced hardware platforms
to bring a greater performance/price value and advanced functionalities like the LAN
failover in the market place. Because of Elfiq's unique transparent operation, the
LAN failover allows traffic to pass through the Elfiq unit even if it is turned off.
More E series models will be launched in 2008 to continue in our efforts to supply
our customers with leading products." said Jean Pascal Hebert, Vice-President
Business Development of Elfiq Networks.

The Elfiq LB-1500E and LB-4000E models will be available for shipping on September
28th 2007.

The Elfiq Link Load Balancer implementation is by far the simplest on the market. No
IP address migration or any change to the firewalls/routers are required. The Elfiq
Link Load Balancer guarantees optimal access for your network and applications for
business continuity, while optimizing your multi-homed network throughput. Advanced
functionalities like geographic load balancing and VPN multiplexing make it a key
element of disaster recovery projects and ensure maximum availability to the
enterprise's IP services.
