Johannesburg, 07 Jun 2001

Nortel Networks will unveil at SUPERCOMM 2001 a series of technology innovations and new alliances that will further enable enterprises and service providers to profit from the high-performance Internet by reducing the cost of networking and accelerating delivery of new revenue generating services.

"For years, Nortel Networks has led the industry in delivering the lowest cost per bit, the critical first step in creating high-performance data networks," said Janine Scott, Marketing Director, Nortel Networks. "Now we`re taking it to the next level, setting the agenda for service differentiation, maximum `profit per bit,` and new network economics.

"We will continue to unleash service provider potential to profit from the high-performance Internet through technology innovations and alliances with industry leaders," Scott said. "We recognise that the competitive advantage and long-term success of our customers are driven by the ability to generate new services. And we are again leading the market by creating new business solutions, service opportunities and support capabilities that will enable service providers and enterprises to maximise profit per bit."

Capabilities Nortel Networks will feature at SUPERCOMM 2001 include Optical, Intelligent and Wireless Internet, Carrier voice over IP and Internet Telephony. Nortel Networks is extending the reach of optics to deliver new revenue-generating services.

Nortel Networks is using the power of next generation MPLS networking to enable new IP (Internet Protocol) services, as well as to take advantage of existing network investments. It is enabling service providers to evolve into integrated providers of personalised services. The company is driving evolution of the Wireless Internet, combining optically-enabled, all-IP core networks and alliances with key application and device providers to deliver 2.5G and 3G business models carriers can quickly deploy.

The comprehensive Internet Telephony portfolio is transforming traditional voice networks into converged multiservice networks that will drive cost-effectiveness while providing a platform for new service generation for carriers and productive applications for enterprises.
