EDINA , Minnesota – Phenomenal Networks announces the signing of two new strategic alliances for services and support in China and other Pac Rim countries. An alliance with Wafer Systems Ltd. , a Cisco Gold Partner based in covering the People ' s Republic of China (PRC) , H ong K ong and other Asia n c ountries , provides for local installation project implementation, customer maintenance and techn ical support of systems sold by Phenomenal to local US companies that have sites in China and Hong Kong . The second agreement is with an PAC RIM Carrier whereby Phenomenal will lease a high speed fiber optic link, QoS (Quality of Service) enabled that will be used to provide local companies high speed, low cost access to their locations in the PRC, Hong Kong and other Asian sites. These lines will be capable of transmitting data, voice and video information at a cost saving of 50-85% of normal connections.

“We are using these alliances to further strengthen our International capability and service into the Pacific Rim ”, said Dave Shepherdson, Phenomenal's CEO and President. “We have always targeted local companies that have multiple locations including sites outside North America . Many of those are manufacturing companies with sites in China and other Asian countries. The new MPLS enabled, highly secure link will let us offer a great communications capability at the right price, where companies personnel will be able to communicate by video as well as voice and data. Engineers will be able to discuss blueprints while viewing them over the same line and teleconferences may be set up in a simple and low cost manner.”

“We are very excited to be able to work partner with Phenomenal Networks to provide the installation system integration and ongoing on - site technical support for their customers with Asian sites,” commented Ringo Chan, Chief Executive Officer of Wafer Systems Ltd. “Our new generation network -based technical capabilities experience and , especially Cisco product knowledge , will enable us to support Phenomenal's customers avoiding any local language or time issues and still provide the user with a seamless, “single-supplier” approach. We are a fast growing company with plans to expand into other Pac Rim countries and this agreement will allow for ever expanding Phenomenal support in the region.”

“Effective Global communications is essential in today's business climate, “stated Shepherdson. A combination of high-speed lines with IP telephony technology is shrinking the world but systems must be implemented correctly. Phenomenal is dedicated to helping local companies use these tools effectively and we believe that we continue to be the strongest, internationally focused company in this region.”
