Agito Networks to Publicly Unveil Industry's First Location-Aware Enterprise Mobility Platform at Mobile Business Expo 2007

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Agito Networks, Inc.(TM), a company pioneering new technology in enterprise mobility, today announced that it will premiere the next generation of enterprise mobility products -- its RoamAnywhere(TM) Mobility Router -- at Mobile Business Expo (MBX) 2007 in its booth No. 616 at the Javits Convention Center in New York, Oct. 22-25.

For the first time, enterprises can easily mobilize voice for their workforce, and truly reap the improved productivity and cost savings benefits that WiFi provides for enterprise fixed mobile convergence (eFMC). Now, enterprises can benefit from improved in-building coverage, cost savings on cellular expenses, mobile policy controls, and enhanced user productivity.

"Enterprises have a pent up demand for mobility solutions that work and are available today, so it's no surprise that mobile convergence is a critical theme of this year's expo," said Steve Wylie, General Manager of Mobile Business Expo. "We are pleased that Agito Networks has selected our event to unveil its company and publicly debut its RoamAnywhere Mobility Router for conference attendees. Mobile Business Expo has the reputation as the venue where truly innovative solutions are launched, and Agito's RoamAnywhere, which is differentiated in enabling enterprise to mobilize their voice and data applications, continues that trend."

The session will explore the best options available for enterprise IT and telecom managers who want to deploy converged solutions today, as well as carrier offerings.

Also, Sandeep Rangarajan, senior product line manager at Agito Networks, will present "Fulfilling the Promise of eFMC" in the Market Leaders Track on Thurs., Oct. 25, at 4:20 pm EDT in the exhibition hall theater.
