OSLO, Norway, and NEW YORK, USA, November 14, 2005 - TANDBERG® (OSLO: TAA.OL), a global leader in visual communication, announced today it has teamed with Cisco Systems, Inc. on its new Clinical Connection Suite to speed the time to diagnosis and treatment. Based on the Cisco Medical-Grade Network, the Cisco Clinical Connection Suite provides real-time communications, monitoring, collaboration, and resource tracking, delivered as a four-part, integrated clinical solution. Integrating TANDBERG's video technology with Cisco's Medical-Grade Network, healthcare providers improve patient care by bringing the patient and critical information together with the right caregiver or specialist from any location.

Spread across a network of eight regional hospitals and 32 remote sites, healthcare providers with U.K.'s National Health Service (NHS) faced the challenge of effectively diagnosing and treating cancer patients with a limited number of radiologists, pathologists and oncologists. The NHS deployed TANDBERG video solutions over a Cisco network so that cancer specialists throughout the system could collaborate face-to-face on patient diagnosis and treatment plans. Collaborative care provides facilities, such as NHS, with an invaluable tool for meeting the diverse needs of the growing communities they serve.

"Since deploying our video systems for multi-disciplinary teamwork within cancer networks, we've seen a reduction in patient waiting," said NHS Communications Specialist Gus Hartley. "Quite simply, we treat patients more effectively and clinicians make more effective use of their time."

TANDBERG-Cisco collaborative care customers are able to collaborate over video for administration in real time, Grand Rounds, continuing medical education (CME), translation services and even assisted surgery. TANDBERG's highly secure visual communication technology features the highest level of encryption and authentication to ensure patient confidentiality, satisfying HIPAA requirements.

"In order to meet the growing demand worldwide for collaborative and specialized healthcare services, it is essential that organizations find new ways to share critical information and improve efficiencies," said Pierre-Paul Allard, vice president of enterprise marketing for Cisco. "Together with TANDBERG, healthcare providers now have a reliable video solution with industry-leading security features enabled by a fully scalable, reliable and highly secure network architecture. This results in greater sharing of information, increased clinical workflow and improved patient care."

Other TANDBERG-Cisco Telehealth customers include:

• The University of California-Davis Medical Center (UCDMC), where patients and staff visually confer with medical institutions and specialists around the world. UCDMC staff also use the TANDBERG-Cisco video solution in response to disaster situations to provide remote triage for medical emergencies.
• The Grampians Rural Health Alliance Network (GRAHNet) in the Grampians region of Australia connects more than 40 remote hospitals using a TANDBERG-Cisco video solution. The GRAHNet system supports a wide range of collaborative-care activities, including patient review, professional development and training, executive management meetings and cross-departmental discussions.

"Taking advantage of TANDBERG's visual communication solutions with Cisco's Medical-Grade Network will provide the healthcare industry with an effective and easy-to-implement solution for improving patient care and personnel efficiency," said Andrew Miller, chief executive officer of TANDBERG. "This partnership further builds on our mission to make business-quality visual communication accessible to everyone in a healthcare organization."
