    Armenian Datacom to expand service offering over converged
    Alcatel-Lucent IP/MPLS backbone



    Armenian Datacom Company selected Alcatel-Lucent to supply an IP/MPLS
    network to deliver high quality data and Internet services to
    business and residential customers. Covering most of the Armenian
    capital city of Yerevan, Alcatel-Lucent's IP/MPLS network will allow
    Armenian Datacom to benefit from a wider variety of service offerings
    and increased service flexibility. Once deployed, the operator can
    provide advanced services such as high speed Internet (HSI) and
    virtual private LAN services (VPLS) for corporate customers. By
    running all services on a single, next generation IP infrastructure,
    Armenian Datacom can achieve significant economies of scale and
    maximize profitability of services while streamlined and simplified
    network management tools will result in significant operational
    savings.

    "By leveraging Alcatel-Lucent's IP portfolio of products, Armenian
    Datacom Company can offer advanced business and residential services
    for the first time in Armenia," said Harald Grytten, CEO, Armenian
    Datacom. "Implementing Alcatel-Lucent's leading-edge solutions gives
    us the business and technology tools we need to compete and to offer
    subscribers a variety of converged services."

    "As an early supplier of cutting edge IP/MPLS solutions in Armenia,
    we are in a position to contribute to further development and
    modernization of the data infrastructure in Armenia," said Basil
    Alwan, President, Alcatel-Lucent's IP activities. "Armenian Datacom
    is able to leverage the unique features of our IP/MPLS solution to
    provide a new generation of services to its customers."

    Armenian Datacom joins a list of more than 160 service providers in
    over 60 countries who have selected the Alcatel-Lucent IP portfolio,
    including massive, multi-year IP network and service transformation
    projects at AT&T, BT, Cable & Wireless, and Telstra. According to
    Ovum-RHK, Alcatel-Lucent was #2 in the IP/MPLS Edge market segment in
    Q4 2006, with 19% market share.
