Are any of these equipment made by DIGI or NN? Motorola to Provide the Nationwide Backbone Paging Network in China Telecom's Eleven Provincial Capital Cities by Business Editors and Communications Oct 31 1997 1:30AM CST, BUSINESS WIRE SINGAPORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 30, 1997-- China Telecom Uses Motorola's Latest Wireless Messaging System (WMS) High Speed FLEX(TM) Multi-Frequency Roaming Protocol Paging Infrastructure Motorola's Asia-Pacific Paging Networks Division today announced that China Telecom has commercially launched a nationwide paging roaming service in the twenty-two cities of which Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing, Shenyang, Changchun, Hangzhou, Hefei, Nanning, Changsha, Nanchang and Xian are deploying Motorola's Wireless Messaging System (WMS) paging infrastructure. China Telecom's 198/199 nationwide paging network was officially launched on Oct. 1 during China's 48th National Day. The eleven cities make use of Motorola's latest state-of-the-art paging infrastructure system architecture, the Wireless Messaging System (WMS). It includes the Wireless Message Gateway(TM) paging terminal, one of the highest processing capabilities in the industry; the RF Conductor(TM) the high capacity paging network controller; and Nucleus(R) paging transmitters with RF-Baton!(TM) network interface. The complete system provides all the advanced messaging features that are required by the China market. In addition, Motorola was the first to be awarded another provincial wide US$8 million dollar FLEX(TM) protocol-based Multi-Frequency Network contract in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, supported by Motorola's Wireless Messaging Systems, after China Telecom's original 22 cities. The performance and reliability of WMS clearly differentiates Motorola's paging infrastructure from the rest. With this setup, China has become one of the most advanced paging operators in the world, offering Multi-Frequency FLEX protocol-based Roaming services. Motorola's paging system employs the Inter-switch Paging Networks Protocol (IPNP) defined by China Telecom to support Multi-Frequency Roaming. The advanced network provided by Motorola not only provides state-of-the-art performance for the new Multi-Frequency Roaming Technology in China, but assures customers that the network will be capable of providing other value-added informational services, two-way paging and voice paging in the future. "We congratulate China Telecom's launch of its 198,199 Nation Wide Paging Network. And we thank China Telecom for choosing Motorola's WMS in its eleven important provincial cities. We will continue to provide a total solution approach with our dedicated local engineering services and assist China Telecom in bringing in the latest and most advanced paging services to the country," said Mr. Jeff Dryjanski, Vice President and General Manager of Motorola's Asia Pacific Paging Networks Division (APPND). The FLEX protocol is the de facto standard for high-speed paging and has been adopted by 16 of the top 20 U.S. service providers, as well as by market-leading providers in Asia, Canada, Latin America, Africa and the Middle East, representing 70 percent of the world's largest paging markets. Motorola's new paging products are based on its FLEX protocol. Motorola is a leading worldwide provider of wireless communications, semiconductors, and advanced electronics systems and services. Major equipment businesses include: paging and data communications; cellular telephones; two-way radios; personal communications; automotive, defense and space electronics; and computers. Communications devices, computers and millions of consumer products are powered by Motorola semiconductors. Motorola's sales in 1996 were US$28 billion.
