Posted on: Thursday, 26 March 2009, 08:30 CDT

MAXaccess 1000(TM) Trader Productivity Solution Recognized for Innovation

JERSEY CITY, N.J., March 26 /PRNewswire/ -- IPC Systems, Inc., a leading provider of indispensable trading communications solutions to the world's leading financial services firms and global enterprises, today announced that Technology Marketing Corporation's (TMC) Unified Communications magazine (www.uc-mag.com) has named MAXaccess(TM) 1000 a recipient of its 2008 Product of the Year Award.

IPC's innovative MAXaccess 1000 solution offers flexibility and maximizes access to markets and customer data by extending the unique turret capabilities traders depend on most to the desktop of any PC with broadband access and a telephone. This is more important than ever in today's economic climate, as delays in responding to customer requests or an unexpected business interruption can cost a firm millions in revenue.

"TMCnet's Unified Communications' recognition of MAXaccess further validates our reputation of providing unified communications and innovative trader voice solutions for competitive advantage," said Mark Miller, director of IPC Product Management. "Product innovation is at the core of our business, and as advanced networks gain further global momentum, we are confident that our highly integrated communications platform will enable traders and their clients to communicate more effectively, efficiently and seamlessly."

MAXaccess is a browser-based application that ensures complete and transparent access to trading counterparties, protects against unforeseen business disruptions and provides increased productivity and flexibility when access to a trader's primary turret is not possible. Traders can travel between offices or address personal emergencies while still being connected to markets and customers. In addition, MAXaccess provides a cost-effective business continuity solution.

Rich Tehrani, TMC president and editor-in-chief of Unified Communications magazine added, "IPC has proven it is committed to quality and excellence while addressing real needs in the marketplace. Unified Communications is pleased to grant a 2008 Product of the Year Award to IPC's MAXaccess. We're proud to honor their hard work and accomplishments and look forward to more innovative solutions from IPC in the future."

A full list of Product of the Year winners will be published in the March/April 2009 issue of Unified Communications magazine, www.uc-mag.com.
