June 25, 2002
SINGAPORE and SAN JOSE, Calif. -- InnoMedia (TM), a leading supplier of Internet and broadband access IP telephony solutions, today announced a partnership with Korean telecommunications company Syspol Co. Ltd. to deliver Embedded Multimedia Terminal Adapters (EMTAs) for a major VoIP project with PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia, Tbk. ("PT Telkom") in Indonesia. In this project, Syspol and its partners will implement a Hybrid Fiber Coax (HFC) cable network in 14 major cities across Indonesia, and supply the softswitch-based VoIP service, broadband Internet service, and cable TV service exclusively to PT Telkom. Syspol has joined together industry-leading companies to deliver the integrated voice solution, consisting of the softswitch from Telcordia, CMTS and trunk gateway from Cisco, and EMTAs from Samsung and InnoMedia. The InnoMedia EMTA 3528 is a highly interoperable, all-in-one CPE device with an embedded DOCSIS 1.1-ready cable modem for high speed Internet service and a built-in IP telephony module delivering 1 or 2 telephone lines for reliable, high quality voice services. PT Telkom, a majority state-owned company, is one of the largest companies in Indonesia and is the leading information and communications service provider in the country. Earlier this month PT Telkom launched its Triple Bundling Service, consisting of cable TV, Internet, and telephone services and will immediately introduce 300 subscribers to this service in a trial. Commercial launch will begin later this year with a three-stage roll out plan to reach the first target of 1,020,000 subscribers after three years. The plan for the first year in 2002-2003 is 160,000 homes in three cities. The second year in 2003-2004 an additional 400,000 homes in five cities, and in the third year 2004-2005 another 460,000 homes in six cities. "Syspol appreciates InnoMedia's sincere support and cooperation with other world-class partners like Telcordia, Cisco and Samsung to deliver high quality VoIP service to PT Telkom in Indonesia. InnoMedia's EMTA 3528 is an excellent end-to-end solution for this project," stated K.C. Sung, chief executive officer of Syspol Co. Ltd. "We hope InnoMedia can grow together with Syspol's Indonesian project." Syspol Co. Ltd. InnoMedia Inc.
