New RADVISION MEGACO/H.248 Developer Toolkit Provides Maximum Flexibility and Functionality for Development of IP Communication Applications.

FAIR LAWN, N.J. -- RADVISION (Nasdaq:RVSN) today announced that it has released version 2.0 of its popular MEGACO/H.248 Developer Toolkit, featuring unique enhancements to support more encoding schemas, more operating systems, and the latest changes to the MEGACO and H.248 standards.

With the reemerging popularity of MEGACO/H.248 for controlling IP media sessions, carriers are now requesting MEGACO-powered solutions for virtually every operating system, based on either text or binary encoding. In fact, MEGACO/H.248 is specified as a core protocol by the 3G, IPPC (formerly the International Softswitch Consortium), and OMA Push-To-Talk standards bodies.

Responding to this growing popularity of the protocol and the diversity of solution requirements for operating systems and encoding approaches, RADVISION significantly enhanced version 2.0 of its MEGACO/H.248 Toolkit with new functionality and features, delivering a powerful tool for the development of communications solutions that can be easily modified to address the many variations in MEGACO-related product requirements.

"RADVISION's vision has long been to enable quicker time to market, with the most robust and feature rich solution," said Adi Paz, Senior Director of Marketing and Product Management for RADVISION's Technology Business Unit. "In this new version we not only accomplished this but we also implemented an architecture that allows our partners to quickly and easily add fully compliant support for text and/or binary encoding - enabling them to quickly and easily leverage new opportunities and markets."

In addition to supporting both text and binary encoding, the RADVISION MEGACO/H.248 Developer Toolkit fully supports the latest change to the IETF MEGACO standard - RFC 3525. This new RFC addresses much needed changes to clarify and solidify the MEGACO standard and represents over 200 changes to the MEGACO standard, covering everything from syntax to transport requirements.

The RADVISION MEGACO Toolkit supports an ever widening array of Operating Systems allowing applications to be moved seamlessly from one platform architecture to another without modification. The RADVISION MEGACO/H.248 Toolkit supports development of applications on the Windows, Solaris, Linux, Tru64, VxWorks, Monta Vista, pSOS, OSE, Nucleus, QNX, and INTEGRITY operating systems. RADVISION's MEGACO/H.248 Toolkit architecture ensures that applications developed with this toolkit are fully insulated from the details of the underlying OS, allowing partners to later modify their applications to run on any of the above supported operating systems with only minimal effort. The agility with which applications can move from among the supported OS allows RADVISION customers the flexibly to address the many different markets and carrier operating system requirements with the same core application.

Availability

Version 2.0 of RADVISION's MEGACO/H.248 Toolkit is now available worldwide.
