VoIP Choice Product Becomes Asterisk CompatibleJuly 25, 2006ST. LOUIS, MO and HUNTSVILLE, AL -- NetLogic, a leader in Quality of Service (QoS) VoIP and Internet, and Digium, the creator of AsteriskTM and pioneer of open source telephony, today announced that NetLogic has become a Digium Service Partner. “Our partnership with NetLogic shows the great potential of open source in providing voice over Internet services,” said Mark Spencer, president of Digium and creator of Asterisk. “By certifying NetLogic's VoIP product with Asterisk Business Edition, we can ensure a positive VoIP experience to our combined customers.” In addition, NetLogic has certified Asterisk Business Edition to work with its VoIP Choice product. Mike Morey, president of NetLogic, explains, “Our certification ensures users of Asterisk-based phone systems that they can enjoy voice-optimized, high quality connections, thereby eliminating the jitter and garble associated with many VoIP deployments.” “We view Digium as a driving force in the deployment of open source PBX systems,” said Mike Young, CTO of NetLogic. “We look forward to working closely together to continue to expand this market.” VoIP Choice offers better call quality than other VoIP services because NetLogic manages the connection from its origination at the phone system until it is delivered to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) using Quality of Service (QoS) technology. This continuity across the entire network helps to maintain the highest quality of call service.
