Ericsson to supply MMS and 2.5G solution to all Hutchison wireless networks in India
25th October 2002

Ericsson has been selected by Hutchison Group in India as sole supplier of an end-to-end MMS solution and GPRS infrastructure for all mobile networks it operates in India. Ericsson will supply GPRS
infrastructure and integration services to upgrade Hutchison's four existing GSM mobile networks in Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Gujarat.

"Hutchison is one of the fastest growing cellular operators in India. Ericsson's MMS solution allows it to offer more value to its customers and will also add to its revenues through increased network
traffic and new tariff options," says Jan Campbell, Managing Director, Ericsson India Pvt. Ltd.

Ericsson's GPRS system makes it possible for Hutchison to offer users
an always-on connectivity and higher bandwidth for data packet
transfer. MMS takes clear advantage of these two features, enhancing
personal connectivity and productivity through more immediate
exchange of rich content. With Ericsson's GPRS and MMS solutions,
Hutchison is also taking an important step forward in the evolution
to 3G mobile networks.

Last year, Ericsson won contracts in a separate deal to provide
GSM/GPRS infrastructure for Hutchison's three new mobile networks in
Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Chennai.

Ericsson is the undisputed market leader for MMS, with 50% of MMS
subscribers worldwide. Ericsson has 36 commercial agreements and more
than 90 trials at customer sites in all major markets and through its
Mobility World. Ericsson's MMS solution is fully 3GPP compliant and
is an open multivendor solution.
