(OTC:XNWK) (BULLETIN BOARD: XNWK) , the developer of X-PRO, a high-quality, carrier-grade VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) SIP softphone. The agreement is the result of the integration of the X-PRO softphone within the VoIP offering of Amcat's Contact Center Suite, a comprehensive inbound/outbound/blended contact center software solution. Amcat's Chief Technology Officer, Jim Texter commented, "We were impressed by the high performance of Xten's technology and are delighted to be working with one the world's leading softphone providers. By fully integrating Xten's X-PRO softphone within our own product, we have expanded the VoIP deployment options for contact centers, particularly those planning distributed, remote, or home-based working environments. Xten's softphone product is a proven winner, as evidenced by its selection by IP providers such as Vonage, a leader in consumer IP telephony service offerings." "We're extremely pleased to be partnering with Amcat to enhance their Contact Center Suite," stated Erik Lagerway, President and COO of Xten Networks Inc. To support VoIP connectivity within a call center environment, the Xten softphone runs in the background at an agent's desktop and is compatible with a range of SIP headsets that simply plug into the USB port of the PC. By providing high quality and low costs, softphones are ideal for call centers that wish to support distributed sites or remote workers. The softphone configuration can be used instead of other more costly offerings that require PBXs at the various call center locations or hard IP and phone sets for each agent. Key features of the Amcat solution supported by Xten's X-PRO SIP softphone include call forwarding, voice mail, conferencing, caller ID, phone book, speed dials and direct IP to IP calling. Amcat's Contact Center Suite solution employs VoIP telephony software and hardware supplied by Intel Dialogic 'IP Link' solution. About Xten Networks, Inc.
