Huawei, a provider of telecommunications network services, said that it has been chosen by MobileOne (M1) as the provider of an ATCA (Advanced Telecommunications Computing Architecture) platform based IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) offering to enhance its national broadband services and build its FMC (fixed and mobile convergence) capabilities.

Huawei said that the new IMS offering will provide M1 subscribers with multi-media services such as voice over internet protocol, IPTV, Centrex and HD video conferencing. The integration of Huawei’s IMS offering will enhance M1’s capabilities and enable M1 to transform from a mobile operator to a fixed and mobile service provider.

The IMS voice over broadband (VoBB) offering adopted a standard ATCA platform. One ATCA frame is able to provide all of M1’s requirements, the company claims.

Mr Patrick Scodeller, CTO of M1, said: With Huawei’ s IMS system, M1 will build up an advanced future oriented network architecture, which gives us the capability to deliver new multimedia services to both our fixed and mobile customers in the future.

Jin Huang, vice president of core network at Huawei, said: Huawei’ s customised ATCA-based IMS solutions allow operators to achieve rapid network deployment and shorten time to market and support M1′ s business transformation by providing subscribers with advanced multi-media services.
