Etisalat selects Alcatel's latest Intelligent Networks to deliver 3G services
December 3, 2003
Alcatel announced that it has been awarded by Etisalat, a service providers
in the Middle East, a new turn-key contract to expand its existing Intelligent
Networks (IN) in the United Arab Emirates.
The new project will provide Etisalat with the service-enabling technology
needed to offer cutting-edge mobile services such as Multimedia Messaging
Services (MMS) including the combination of pictures, animations, audio
and text, and ultimately video and audio streaming.
Under the terms of this contract, won in open tender against other vendors,
Alcatel will supply Etisalat with a complete Intelligent Network solution
built on its proven Open Services Platform (OSP) to cover the entire Emirates.
In addition, the solution includes Alcatel's Prepaid Suites (PPS) which
gives the operator the ability to apply prepaid charging in real time
for voice, data and content in a GPRS network.
Since the Alcatel Open Services Platform is an extensible platform, new
applications modules and payments modules can easily and quickly be added
to run 3G applications. Alcatel's new generation payment solution can
extend voice, data, content, messaging delivery into prepaid - post-paid
convergence on mobile networks. It can also easily integrate with existing
modules of other payment solutions and is able to inter-work with a multi-vendor
network.
"This new contract strengthens our long-standing relationship with Etisalat"
stated Jean-Michel Cornille, President of Alcatel's mobile solution activities.
"It also reaffirms our world leadership in payment solutions. The key
to our selection was our proven ability to understand the complexities
of both voice and data service delivery over a multi-vendor environment.
This contract will reinforce Alcatel's position in the Middle East where
GSM subscribers are expected to reach a record number by 2004".
The new network and associated services are expected to be operational
in the United Arab Emirates by the end of 2003.
