Sorrento Networks CEO to Present Conference Session at INTERNET TELEPHONY® Conference & EXPO East 2009

Jim Nevelle to Discuss IPTV and Triple Play Networks at IP Communications Industry’s Leading Event at Miami Beach Convention Center in February


DENVER, Jan. 28, 2009 — Sorrento Networks today announced that CEO Jim Nevelle has accepted an invitation to present a session titled “IPTV & Triple Play Network Migration” at TMC’s INTERNET TELEPHONY® Conference & EXPO East 2009. His session will take place at 4:00 – 4:45 p.m. on Feb. 2, 2009 at the Miami Beach Convention Center.

INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO, held Feb. 2-4, 2009, is the world’s largest and best-attended IP Communications trade show. At the 2008 East Coast event, the show drew over 7,000 buyers and sellers of IP communications products and services. The show in January will mark the 10th anniversary and be the 19th INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO, and TMC once again projects total attendance to exceed 7,000.

“The bandwidth requirements for IPTV are much greater than for carrier-class VoIP telephony, necessitating more bandwidth-efficient IPTV protocols, such as IP multicasting. However, finance departments often balk at the high costs of obtaining this bandwidth efficiency,” said Nevelle. “My goal with this presentation is to teach attendees ways to implement a low-cost broadcast optical IPTV backbone that offers a high QoS and meets all other triple play requirements, which should be timely from both technological and economical perspectives.”

“We are very pleased that Jim Nevelle will be participating in this year’s show. Sorrento Networks is widely recognized and respected as an industry leader, and I am confident that our attendees will appreciate and value the opportunity to hear his perspective on implementing lower-cost IPTV architectures,” said TMC president and conference chairman, Rich Tehrani. “Over the past twelve months, widespread deployment of IP Communications services by global service providers, businesses and governments has reinforced that this exciting technology is a viable, cost-effective communications solution. As a result, we are seeing a significant number of senior-level executives attending INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO as a means of learning about the technology so they too can take advantage of its benefits.”

Registration for the show is now open. Anyone interested may register by visiting www.itexpo.com.
