Partnership Allows New and Existing Quintum Customers to Place VoIP Calls Globally Through Net2Phone

Newark, NJ and Eatontown, NJ- March 30, 2004 - Net2Phone (Nasdaq: NTOP), the leading provider of retail Voice over IP (VoIP) services, and Quintum, a leading manufacturer of Voice over IP (VoIP) solutions for enterprises, today announced that they have signed an agreement to jointly market Net2Phone’s VoIP enterprise services with Quintum’s Tenor VoIP MultiPath Switches and gateways.

Under the multi-year agreement, Net2Phone and Quintum will integrate VoIP services with enterprise VoIP MultiPath Switches and market the solution as a bundled telephony offering. The bundle will include a configuration “wizard” that can be used with new models of Tenor VoIP equipment to simplify the user experience and allow customers to easily set their gateways to offer low-cost calling over the Net2Phone network. With 250,000 IP ports already deployed, Quintum boasts a distribution group of over 200 resellers spanning 70 countries. Net2Phone has established a robust global network through which their products and services are offered. Net2Phone and Quintum will make this bundled VoIP offering available to its current and future customers via their distribution channels to corporate customers worldwide.

“A joint offer of Net2Phone service with Quintum’s line of VoIP equipment delivers tremendous value to customers,” said Kurt Baumann, President at Quintum. “Our intelligent VoIP switches provide superb value to our corporate customers who are already using VoIP for their on-net calling. By adding off-net calling globally to any telephone via Net2Phone’s robust platform and network, customers now can have the kind of functionality that takes them to the next level of service, with confidence that they are supported by a company known for its high quality of service.”

“We’re pleased to create this joint offer to provide valuable off-net calling with Quintum, a recognized leader in the SME VoIP market,” said Bryan Wiener, President of Net2Phone Global Services. “This partnership allows us to build on the trust that Quintum has developed in the market with customers who have grown to expect high quality from its products and services. This joint offering complements our enterprise strategy to deliver flexible and affordable solutions to small and mid sized businesses looking for the feature-rich applications and flexibility that VoIP has to offer.”
