Kuala Lumpur, May 11 th, 2009 Green Packet Berhad, a leading developer of next generation mobile broadband and networking solutions, cemented its position as an industry front runner in the world of WiMAX and convergent technologies after an impressive debut participation at WiMAX Forum Congress Asia (WFCA) from 28 th to 29 th April 2009, in Singapore.

The intense interest shown by operators, delegates, and media to Green Packet‘s booth is a testimony to the company’s total business model which is committed to bringing together the different streams of WiMAX business.

Speaking about the WFCA, Mr. Kelvin Lee, Senior General Manager, Green Packet Berhad said, “We are convinced of the potential of this market for our WiMAX products and solutions judging from the enthusiastic response that we received at the WiMAX Forum Congress Asia (WFCA) 2009. Our staff answered questions regarding technical integration support up to application software development from 21 operators of 15 countries. The most frequently asked topic was how to increase ARPU, and we at Green Packet, is the solution!”

“End users demands ease, convenience, connectivity and mobility, whether on a broadband or a converged communications platform. Green Packet helps Operators increase ARPU through our innovative technologies. Our seamless mobility tools and a soon to be launched VOIP enabled modem are our focus products for this year.”

Lee enthused that the welcoming response of the Live WiMAX Network Tour (LWNT) which took nearly 100 delegates and media from Singapore to Johor Bahru ( Malaysia), reflects operators’ excitement and strong interest in developing WiMAX networks.

During the tour, Green Packet showcased a flawless performance of the Intouch Connection Management Platform which seamlessly and automatically moved between WiMAX and WiFi networks based on best bandwidth availability, delivering uninterrupted downloads and crystal clear VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol).

It was this successful Green Packet Solutions demonstration that prompted WiMAX Forum President, Ron Resnick to applaud Green Packet for their innovation and delivery, while he was officiating the signing of an agreement between Green Packet and Taiwan’s Tatung Infocomm.

The Tatung agreement, following suite after Green Packet’s agreement with PCCW earlier in the year, sees Green Packet Solutions provide a customised and enhanced edition of its in-demand Intouch Connection Management Platform to deliver seamless mobility across networks over secured mobile VPN (Virtual Private Network). An example of this would be a user moving from Tatung WiMAX to WiFi and back to a WiMAX coverage area, enjoying seamless connectivity without ever having to re-establish a new connection. The agreement will also see the provision of a ‘Value Added Services’ (VAS) software.

Green Packet also signed an agreement with GCT Semiconductor, to develop the world’s first on a single chipset, which will allow wireless devices to seamlessly roam between WiMAX and WiFi networks.

“We are very pleased with the overwhelming response to Green Packet’s presence at WFCA which truly proves that Green Packet is the market leader in the ICT field in this region. We are looking forward to reunite with the operators we have met during the event and gain acquaintance with others that have missed the forum when the industry players converge again in WiMAX Forum Global in Amsterdam, WiMAX Taipei and WiMAX Forum Regional MENA next month. We, at Green Packet will definitely be there!” concludes Kelvin Lee.
