Mid-Atlantic Service Provider Leverages Class 5 and Data Infrastructure to Deliver Enhanced Hosted Communications Services to Customer Base

CAMPBELL, Calif., May 17, 2004 - Sylantro Systems Corporation today announced that SNiP (Southern New Jersey Internet Providers, Inc.), a leading provider of data, voice and applications services in the Mid-Atlantic region, has selected Sylantro's carrier-grade feature server and suite of hosted communications applications as the foundation for the new SNiP VPS (Virtual Phone System) product line. The new Sylantro-based service will further extend SNiP's comprehensive service offerings, which currently serve business, residential and educational customers in southern New Jersey, Delaware and metropolitan Philadelphia. The company is currently expanding its operations to Maryland and the Washington, D.C. area.

SNiP was founded as an Internet Service Provider (ISP) in 1995, and attained CLEC (Competitive Local Exchange Carrier) status in 1999. The company has deployed a region-wide network of data centers and Class 5 switches to serve its growing customer base, and maintains an impressive customer churn rate of less than 2%, as compared to the industry average of 8%. SNiP has been cited numerous times as one of the best, largest and fastest-growing companies of its type in the Delaware Valley.

"Hosted communications services allow us to leverage our existing voice and data offerings to give our business and educational customers a compelling new alternative to premise-based phone systems," said Pete Cava, CEO of SNiP. "This is a win-win-win situation for SNiP and our customers as well. The bedrock of our company is 'knock-your-socks-off' customer support, and the Sylantro solution's extensive feature set and telco-grade performance allow us to provide the highest-quality support for our customers' mission-critical communications services."
