Telcordia & Unipier to Jointly Develop a Policy-Based Roaming Management Solution for a Dual Network Environment

Netanya, Israel - April 26, 2006: Unipier, a provider of Intelligent Policy Management products, and Telcordia® Technologies, a global provider of telecommunications software and services, will develop a joint product for a policy-based roaming in a dual network environment.

The joint solution will provide mobile users with a quality connection over dual-mode mobile devices, which allow users to connect and roam between a cellular service and a Wi-Fi network. In-Stat predicts that there will be over 89M dual-mode devices by 2009, while a new study from ABI concludes that dual-mode device sales are likely to exceed 100M in the same period.

The joint project will be funded by the BIRD Foundation, an organization that encourages cooperation between Israeli and American companies in the realm of advanced technological development.

“We are very happy to cooperate with Telcordia for addressing a real challenge in the fast-growing market of dual-mode systems and converged networks. The integrated solution from Unipier and Telcordia will give providers more flexible network options and roaming assurance between different technologies,” said Gabby Levy, President and CEO of Unipier. “By applying intelligent policy management, we can help wireless operators to leverage their current resources and increase customer satisfaction and revenues.”

“This is truly a case of one plus one equaling three,” states Telcordia CTO, Adam Drobot. “The market continues to confirm Telcordia’s mobility OSS as world class. Likewise, Unipier’s policy management expertise is second to none. Combining these capabilities will allow service providers significant cost and reliability advantages across their dual-mode phone offerings.”
