Newsbytes, Monday, April 19, 1999 at 22:17

BEIJING, CHINA, 1999 APR 19 (NB) -- By Martyn Williams, Newsbytes.
Lucent Technologies [NYSE:LU] says it has signed deals to provide
digital television (DTV) equipment to three provinces in China.

The deals, signed with the Fujian Province Post and Telecom
Administration, the Jiangxi Province Radio and Television Bureau,
and the Wenzhou City Radio and Television Bureau, based in the
Zhejiang province, call for the supply of equipment to enable digital
TV to be broadcast over existing telecommunications network.

The system will be used by broadcasters for distribution of programs
to cities throughout each province. Using the system, broadcasters
will be able to add and drop programming for particular regions and
cities.

The latest deals follow on from Lucent's earlier construction of
optical fiber networks in several areas in China including Zhejiang,
Hainan and Hubei.
