IP Unity Glenayre plays key role in bringing mobile video to Indonesia
XL leads the way in South East Asia with most advanced video applications3GSM WORLD CONGRESS, BARCELONA, Spain — February 12, 2007— IP Unity Glenayre, Inc., the new leader in delivering carrier–grade messaging and multimedia solutions over IP, TDM and enterprise networks, announced today that it is playing a key role in bringing mobile video services to South East Asia. The company's Versera Intelligent Communications Environment (Versera ICE™) is enabling new mobile video applications on "The First with the Widest & Fastest 3G Network in Indonesia", which was launched in September 2006 by leading mobile operator PT Excelcomindo Pratama Tbk. (XL).
With this new service launch, XL's 10 million subscribers will have access to a range of advanced mobile video applications. IP Unity Glenayre, working with its partners Dilithium and Polycom, along with the local support of PT Asia Quattro Net (AQN) and Inphosoft, is powering this launch, with its industry leading Versera Video Solutions.
One of the most interesting mobile video applications is the XL Video Portal. Based on Versera Video Portal®, XL subscribers experience a highly interactive video interface that enables them to quickly and easily search through a wide selection of content, and seamlessly view the desired media, before even having the ability to purchase the content in certain cases. The Versera Video Portal is designed to rapidly adapt to ever-changing content and support integrated advertising as IP Unity Glenayre customers move to sponsor-based engagements.
"XL's success has been built by delivering the most advanced technology to its subscribers; today's mobile video network brings the very latest technology to millions of people across Indonesia," said I Made Harta Wijaya, VP of Value Added Services at XL. "To deploy an advanced network of this scale, we needed a trusted partner with proven technology. IP Unity Glenayre has delivered on its promises, and our subscriber base is now seeing what mobile video can offer them."
Bruce Bales, President of IP Unity Glenayre, commented, "Many operators have launched 3G networks, but few offer such advanced video applications. XL is leading the way in Indonesia by pioneering the very latest video technology. By introducing video solutions, XL can apply new and effective methods for generating higher ARPU while widening its range of offerings to 3G end users."
Dilithium Networks is supporting the network with its DTG 2000 multimedia gateway: a key component in enabling XL to build next-generation converged voice-video networks. Polycom is providing advanced video conferencing capabilities.
IP Unity Glenayre's Versera ICE is one of the telecommunications industry's first true next-generation messaging solutions: it enables the deployment of multiple applications on a single, open platform while providing carrier-grade quality for both circuit-switched and IP networks. It is also compatible with IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), enabling operators to plan for convergence and future applications.
Headquartered in Atlanta, GA, USA, IP Unity Glenayre Messaging also has offices in Singapore, Milpitas, Bangalore Hong Kong and Shanghai, as well as South America, Africa, Europe and the Middle East.
