AudioCodes’ Field-proven Voice over IP Software Available on Leading RISC Architecture

Lod, Israel - January 28, 2009 - AudioCodes (NasdaqGS: AUDC), a leading provider of Voice over IP (VoIP) technologies and Voice Network products, and MIPS Technologies, Inc. (NasdaqGS: MIPS), a leading provider of industry-standard architectures, processors and analog IP for digital consumer, home networking, wireless, communications and business applications, today announced the availability of AudioCodes’ VoIPerfect™ and VoIPerfectHD™ Voice over IP software on MIPS32® processor cores. This combination will enable System on Chip (SoC) designers to develop cost-effective products with advanced VoIP Quality of Service ( QoS) and outstanding performance—leading to a more natural voice quality for devices such as IP Phones and Integrated Access Devices (IADs) for GPON, WiMAX and ADSL.

HD VoIP technologies deliver better voice clarity, intelligibility, and richer sound than traditional voice networks, improving the user experience by doubling the audible voice spectrum. AudioCodes’ HD VoIP solutions are optimized for MIPS Technologies’ single-threaded and multi-threaded 32-bit cores, bringing together the high-performance MIPS® architecture with AudioCodes’ leading DSP, voice coding and SIP application technologies. VoIP developers are expected to benefit from the combination of AudioCodes’ software and the MIPS32® 34K® core, which leverages multi-threading to process multiple VoIP channels and preserve voice quality. With its software running on the 34K core, AudioCodes achieved an acceleration of up to one and a half times compared to a single-threaded core.

“AudioCodes is focused on bringing a new level of quality to VoIP communication, and we are delighted that MIPS Technologies recognizes the potential of HD VoIP, and has decided to collaborate with us on this solution,” said Shaul Weissman, Vice President, VoIP processors at AudioCodes. “We are currently engaged with several customers who are expected to significantly benefit from the high-performance MIPS-Based™ solutions. The collaboration of MIPS Technologies’ strength in home networking and AudioCodes’ expertise in VoIP creates a winning combination for next-generation products.”

“We are pleased to work with AudioCodes, a well known leader in the VoIP market, in developing this optimized solution,” said Udi Kalekin, Vice President of software engineering, MIPS Technologies. “With our broad ecosystem of support, DSP extensions, multi-threading capability and industry-leading performance, MIPS cores are an ideal fit for VoIP products. We look forward to continuing to work with AudioCodes on future algorithms and software to further benefit the cost-sensitive and rapidly developing VoIP market.”

AudioCodes software is optimized for MIPS cores, including the high-performance MIPS32® 24K® core and the multi-threaded 34K core; and is scalable to the next level of performance with the superscalar MIPS32® 74K™ core and the multi-threaded, multi-core MIPS32® 1004K™ Coherent Processing System. The solution can be currently demonstrated on the MIPS Malta™ Development System.
