"These contracts further illustrate Sangoma's success in the growing OEM marketplace that is driven by companies seeking to quickly integrate and deploy best-in-class solutions," said Bill Wignall, Sangoma's chief executive officer and president. "Sangoma has received almost $200,000 in initial orders from Mutualink and Aircell this year, and we're looking forward to doing more business with both of these key OEM customers. These orders demonstrate that Sangoma's reputation for quality engineering and exceedingly reliable products, and potential applications for its market-leading technologies, is expanding well beyond traditional telephony markets. Mutualink's platform for interconnecting public safety, emergency management and defense agencies for critical incident response, and Aircell's Satellite Interface Unit enabling in-flight IP connectivity for the business aviation industry, are some of the most demanding in existence. Over the past two years, Sangoma has focused resources on growing the company and developing new customer segments such as OEM clients and carriers, and I'm pleased to see our investment paying off with demanding new customers who are satisfied with Sangoma solutions and service."

Both Mutualink and Aircell have high expectations, and I'm pleased that our OEM program is able to meet their needs."

"Based on the company's reputation for quality engineering and delivering consistently highly reliable solutions, we selected Sangoma as our OEM partner to provide mission-critical functionality in our Telephone Network Interface Controller that is installed at the communications control center of each participating agency on the Mutualink network," said Mark Hatten, chief executive officer for Mutualink.
