'UTStarcom's iAN8K B1000 MSAN technology improves our network efficiency
and management by enabling us to support the full range of multimedia services
Tiscali offers its customers on a single, IP-based platform,' said Andrea
Podda, chief technology officer at Tiscali Italia. 'UTStarcom's iAN8K solution
also enables us to deliver VDSL and PON access. Additionally, UTStarcom showed
great flexibility in customizing the solution and adapting their product's
VoIP protocols to work seamlessly with our VoIP Class 5 softswitch and other
existing elements installed in our network.'

In July 2006, UTStarcom announced that it had deployed more than one
million broadband access ports in Europe with carriers in France, Italy,
Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic and Austria. Tiscali has
been a broadband customer of UTStarcom's since 2004, when it selected
UTStarcom's AN-2000(TM) IP DSLAM to serve as the cornerstone of its
multiservice broadband network in delivering ADSL2+, a first for any operator
in Italy.

'UTStarcom is a key provider of broadband access technologies to Tiscali
Italia with more than 300,000 ports deployed to date,' said Youssef Kassissia,
UTStarcom's vice president of sales for the EMEA region. 'This new contract
will more than double our installed base in Tiscali's network, further proof
of Tiscali's complete confidence in UTStarcom to provide reliable broadband
access and VoIP solutions that integrate seamlessly into their network to help
drive revenue-generating services.'
