NBX Corporation's NBX 100 Communications System Wins Three Industry Awards.

ANDOVER, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 1, 1999--

Network-Based Telephony Solution Wins Best of Show,

Product of the Year, and Editors' Pick

NBX Corporation, developer of the world's only reliable convergent business telephone system, the NBX 100(tm) Communications System, announced today the receipt of three telecommunications awards from industry trade publications and trade shows.

CTI Magazine made the first award, Product of the Year in the LAN Telephony category. Each year, CTI's editorial review board evaluates submittals from over 1000 companies in 150 different product categories. Of these, the top 5% are selected. "It is a privilege to be selected by CTI Magazine as providing the best network-based telephony solution for small- and medium-sized businesses, growing departments, and regional offices," said Daniel J. Massiello, President and CEO of NBX Corporation. "This is recognition of the progress we at NBX continue to make toward our goal: to be the industry's best overall developer and channel supporter of telephony solutions for growing businesses."

At the December 1998 CTI Expo in San Jose, CA, the judges awarded the NBX 100 Communications System Best of Show in the Network-Based Telephony category (Network-based telephony provides a fully integrated voice and data solution). Participants were judged on technologic innovation, and the judges placed an emphasis on feature sets, the ability to work with existing standards, and contributions to the development of future CTI products and services.

NBX Corporation's third award, Editors' Choice in the Network-Based Telephony category, came from Internet Telephony magazine. Greg Galitzine, Executive Editor, noted that "we created the award as a way to let people know that we feel a particular company is important. This is based partly on meeting with vendors at Trade shows, partly on product literature, and partly on what other folks are saying about a particular company or product. In the case of NBX, it was a no-brainer. We're just trying to generate some well-deserved awareness about companies that, in our opinion, have or will make a difference in our growing industry."
