A Simple Koncept: Adding Jabber XCP IM and Presence to VoIP Solutions; Koncept International Selects Jabber, Inc. to Deliver Advanced Presence and Messaging Capabilities to its VoIP Products and Softswitch Platform.

DENVER & SHENZHEN, China -- Jabber, Inc. today announced that Koncept International, Inc. has chosen the Jabber Extensible Communications Platform (Jabber XCP) as the basis of the advanced presence and messaging capabilities it plans to integrate with Koncept's Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) products and softswitch platform. According to both companies, Koncept plans to add instant messaging (IM) and other presence capabilities such as "on the phone" indicators and click-to-conference into its primary solutions.

Koncept is a leading designer and developer of patented VoIP technologies including VoIP telephone sets, gateways, softphones with a fully integrated softswitch, billing, and Operations Support Systems (OSS) platforms with worldwide call termination. Koncept is a U.S. Corporation with research and development in Shenzhen, China, and network operations in Los Angeles, Calif., and Chengdu, China.

"We selected Jabber, Inc. because of their commitment to open standards, and Jabber XCP's scalability and extensibility," said George Kuang, President of Koncept. "An easy integration with our existing Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and H.323 offerings was essential for us, and we believe strongly that the Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) presence and messaging capabilities Jabber, Inc. delivers is a clear differentiator for Koncept which our customers will quickly find indispensable."

"In the converging worlds of voice and messaging, the common threads are open standards and advanced presence services such as those Koncept plans to roll out," said Tony Bamonti, senior vice president of Telecom for Jabber, Inc. "Because Koncept chose to work with Jabber, Inc. as opposed to solutions based loosely on SIP for Instant Messaging and Presence Leveraging Extensions (SIMPLE), they will gain the benefit of a much quicker deployment, lighter network load, and the extensibility to enable things like text conferencing, tight presence integration with corporate directories, and other services such as click-to-call."
