Alliance Systems Receives INTERNET TELEPHONY® Magazine's 2006 Product of the Year Award


Plano, TX (1/08/07) - Alliance (www.alliancesystems.com) announced today that Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC®)'s INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine (www.itmag.com) has named the Alliance EX-6000 Expansion System as a recipient of a 2006 Product of the Year Award. INTERNET TELEPHONY has been the VoIP Authority Since 1998(TM).

With computer manufacturers reducing the number of PCI expansion slots and the move to newer PCI-Express technology and multi-core technology, Alliance System's EX-6000 Expansion system allows the use of multiple expansion cards with the latest servers, increasing overall capacity and capability. The EX-6000 is the ideal solution for applications requiring a significant number of PCI/PCI-X cards. With Alliance's patented XpressLink management power control optimization technology, environmental management and subsystem power control optimization of subsystems can be managed through the host computer. The EX-Series includes 4U and 6U form factors and is available in both AC and NEBS-compliant DC power options.

"The EX-Series allows customers to continue to use high capacity add-on cards without rewriting software or additional testing, while taking advantage of the newest multi-core server technology," states Jeff Hudgins, VP of Engineering.
"INTERNET TELEPHONY is proud to bestow Alliance Systems with a 2006 Product of the Year Award. Each year INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine recognizes companies that have demonstrated excellence in technological advancement and application refinements," said Rich Tehrani, TMC President and Editor-in-Chief of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine. "Alliance has proven they are committed to quality and excellence while addressing real needs in the marketplace. We're proud to honor their hard work and accomplishments and look forward to more innovative solutions from them in the future."
A full list of Product of the Year winners will be published in the February, 2007 issue of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine. (www.itmag.com)
