Next Generation Networks (NGN) and All IP networks put heavy
demands on cost efficiency and scalable products. Componentization of
network equipment for future telecom networks is a vital part in
meeting these demands.

Ari Vanhanen, President in TietoEnator Telecom & Media, said: "We
emphasise the strategic importance of lowering the cost for Next
Generation Networks. In that effort, telecom components will play a
vital role. I am proud that TietoEnator is in the frontline of
providing current and future customers cost-efficient products for
NGN and All IP networks."

The key benefits of TietoEnator's Signaling products are carrier
grade durability, redundancy and highly scalable software and
hardware platforms based on our proven signaling architecture. The
current signaling products from TietoEnator are included in major
network equipment manufacturers' products used world-wide.

IMS Signaling Middleware provides a platform-independent and
portable control plane solution for nodes in the IP Multimedia
Subsystem (IMS), such as Call Session Control Functions (CSCF), IMS
Application Servers and Charging Functions. Together with
TietoEnator's solutions for SS7 signaling, it is an ideal
building-block for developing convergence solutions such as signaling
gateways, bridging the gap between legacy and all-IP networks.

Signaling/Protocol Gateway's are important components in the next
generation of networks and service platforms. The Gateway provide
interconnectivity between different types of signaling networks,
access networks and transport networks, allowing integration of
legacy equipment with state-of-the-art next generation IP-based
networks.

The new signalling products are launched at 3GSM in Barcelona at
4.00 pm CET, 13 February, Hall2, stand 2E55.
