Press Release Summary = Focus on next generation networks and convergence

Press Release Body = Ebermannstadt, Germany - March 1, 2007. Vierling Measurement
Solutions will present new test equipment for DSL and broadband networks as well as
IP-based services at CeBIT (Hanover, Germany, March 15 - 21, Hall 13, Booth B58).
The company's Mobile Communication division will present applications allowing
integration of GSM mobile radio, the fixed network and Internet telephony (VoIP)
along with some new analog GSM gateways. Vierling is focusing its CeBIT booth on the
transition from classic time division multiplexing (TDM) networks to the new next
generation networks (NGN) plus the increasing convergence of mobile radio, the fixed
network and VoIP.

Test equipment for high-speed Internet and IP-based services
Vierling's street cabinet scanner is helping to facilitate a smooth transition to
high-speed VDSL2 Internet service in ten major German cities. The device reads out
the switching settings from the old passive street cabinets so the settings can be
transferred quickly without any errors to the new automatic cross-connects. Once
VDSL2 is introduced, a new member of the VIT DSL tester family will help to localize
problems on individual connections. Service technicians can use the VIT-V2 to read
out the most important measurement results at a glance. The TiQoS test platform
(Testing in Quality of Service) is used to assess the quality of new services
transported via broadband Internet connections. The new applications
TiQoS.InternetAccess and TiQoS.Video allow network and service providers to
determine the quality of Internet access and video streaming using a carrier-class
system that is tailored to their professional needs.


Integration of mobile radio, the fixed network and VoIP
Vierling's Mobile Communication division will present some mobile integration
applications based on Ecotel GSM gateways. Thanks to partnerships with industry
leaders, the Vierling GSM gateways are capable of integrating employee mobile phones
as full-featured mobile extensions into existing PBX infrastructures in a
cost-effective manner. One benefit of the convergence of mobile radio, the fixed
network and Internet telephony is that companies are gaining access to effective,
easy to implement alternatives to DECT.

New analog GSM gateways
Vierling Mobile Communication is also presenting for the first time the concept of a
new analog GSM gateway that allows cost-effective calls between the fixed network
and mobile radio. Ecotel GSM3-3x will have all of the functionality needed for
effective least cost routing. Vierling is also presenting the new Ecotel GSM3-2x
analog mobile radio adapter at CeBIT. This device allows direct connection of
telephones, fax machines and answering machines to a GSM network. With Ecotel
GSM3-2x, Vierling is targeting markets in Eastern Europe, Asia and South America in
particular.

Vierling focuses on NGN and convergence
"In our Measurement Solutions division, we are concentrating on high-speed Internet
access and triple play services", said Wolfgang Peter, managing director of
Vierling. "This puts Vierling in a good position vis-à-vis the transition from TDM
networks to next generation networks (NGN). The Mobile Communication division is
focusing on the convergence of mobile radio, the conventional fixed network and
VoIP. Thanks to our solid partners, we are able to offer mobile integration
solutions that significantly boost employee productivity at a low cost."
