Network Equipment Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: NWK) announced today that SCT Telecom, a national provider of wholesale telecommunications services in France, has deployed the SHOUT VoIP platform from net.com to provide low cost delivery alternatives for mobile calls.

Founded in 1997, SCT Telecom is taking advantage of the deregulated telecom market in France to provide small and medium sized businesses with low cost telecommunication services. By developing wholesale relationships with multiple fixed and mobile operators and leveraging the voice over IP capabilities of the SHOUT platform, SCT Telecom is able to provide its customers with high quality telephone calls at the lowest applicable telecom service costs.
