Paradial Announces RealTunnel 3.2 and VP Sales & Marketing

Paradial’s award winning RealTunnel Firewall/NAT traversal product, which supports STUN, TURN and ICE, has been released in version 3.2. The new version adds additional traversal capabilities to SIP and H323, including automatic detection of connectivity and IP addresses changes, improved operations & management interfaces and reduced client footprint. “The improvements in 3.2 add support for users moving between different networks and makes operations and management of RealTunnel servers more streamlined for operators and service providers,” said Espen Skjæran, Paradial CTO.

Paradial also announced the appointment of Lars Meløe as VP Sales & Marketing. Meløe, 43, has served since 2007 as chief executive officer of Viju Vest AS Stavanger - one of the largest resellers of videoconferencing and visual communication solutions in Norway.

Meløe held various sales positions with Tandberg (OSE:TAA) from 1999 to 2006, where he sold videoconferencing solutions in Norway and Northern Europe. Lars served as sales manager with Tandberg from 2002 where his responsibilities included establishing sales offices and recruiting distributors.
