TMEX Installs Redundant Lasers, Switching Equipment at Key Texas Facility NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 28, 1999--TMEX USA, Inc. (OTC BB:TMXU) announced today that it has successfully installed and tested additional equipment that increases the reliability of the key element in its laser network providing telephone service between the United States and Mexico.
The TMEX facility at Laredo, Texas now has redundant lasers and automatic switching equipment to guarantee continuous service over the expanded network.

The addition secures the TMEX goal of providing high reliability, high quality, low cost international telephone service.
TMEX currently has the capacity to provide fifty million minutes per month of service between the United States and Mexico. Its ambitious expansion plan to quadruple that capacity to two hundred million minutes per month is now well underway and should be completed by the end of February 2000.
