Westell's ConferencePlus(R) Expands Global Audio and Video Bridge Network

SCHAUMBURG, IL, Feb 09 (MARKET WIRE) --
Conference Plus, Inc. (ConferencePlus(R)), a subsidiary of Westell
Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WSTL), and a leading provider of global
conferencing solutions, announced today the expansion of their global
Managed Bridge Services. This expansion makes its audio and video bridge
network in New York, Los Angeles, London and Hong Kong available for
direct connection to customers' networks.

ConferencePlus' Managed Bridge Services enable customers to achieve all
the cost benefits of a hardware/software solution while retaining all the
advantages of traditional fully managed conferencing service offerings.
With this expansion, ConferencePlus now offers customers numerous choices
to minimize their transport expense and maximize their network
utilization. In addition, ConferencePlus also offers access to both
dedicated and shared audio and video bridge platforms, along with the
ability to manage existing customer-owned bridge platforms. Customers can
connect to the ConferencePlus network using any carrier that has a
presence in our commercial location facilities.

All ConferencePlus Managed Bridge deployments benefit from integration
with My Account Dashboard, ConferencePlus' industry leading web portal,
which includes full integration with WebEx(TM), Microsoft(R) Live Meeting
and IBM LotusLive(TM). Customers can also benefit from robust end-point
and room management systems and the ability to securely connect across
disparate networks.

Since the initial deployments began, service volume has more than
quadrupled, along with a significant expansion in the number of
implemented carrier interconnects for those services. "We're seeing
substantial interest from customers of all sizes that can realize
significant reductions in conferencing cost with these solutions," said
Greg Doerr, Chief Operating Officer of ConferencePlus. "Customers have
been implementing Voice and Video over Internet Protocol (IP) networks
for many years, and bringing their conferencing services on-net
represents the next logical step. By expanding our Managed Bridge Service
options, we are making it possible for a wider range of potential
customers to take that next step. These service options also offer
greater pricing flexibility through both fixed price and more traditional
usage-based models, depending on the options selected," Mr. Doerr added.

ConferencePlus is hosting an "Ask the Expert" live webinar on February
24, 2011, at 12N CT, which will be presented by Greg Doerr. Mr. Doerr
will review ConferencePlus' expanded Managed Bridge Services offerings in
detail. This event is intended to inform and assist IT and
Telecommunications decision-makers in determining whether Managed Bridge
Services are a fit for their organization. Use the following link to
