UTStarcom Wins Contracts from Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company

UTStarcom and Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company have announced the deployment of 150,000 lines of its mSwitch IP-based softswitch platform and iAN-8000 Multiservice Access Node to PLDT for a new, next-generation network in the Philippines.

The first phase of the deployment targets unserved and underserved areas, key business locations and areas that need a capacity upgrade in Cavite, Batangas, Laguna, Bulacan and metro Manila. Additional phases of the deployment will follow in the coming months.

The deal represents UTStarcom's first contract in the Philippine market and demonstrates its ongoing efforts to develop the Asia Pacific region, one of the fastest growing markets for IT and telecommunication services.
