Fujitsu Wins Key Domain Supplier Status with
AT&T          

Fujitsu Network
Communications has been selected as one of AT&T's
Domain Suppliers for optical and transport equipment. The
multi-year selection covers equipment used to expand and
maintain AT&T's metropolitan and long-haul network
infrastructure. Financial terms of the supplier agreement
are still being negotiated.

AT&T's Domain Supplier program,
launched in September 2009, facilitates a more
collaborative relationship with AT&T's equipment and
software suppliers, enabling AT&T to have the best
technologies in place to serve its customers. The program
is also designed to ensure that the company's network
technology investment accelerates AT&T's move toward
a network that is well-equipped for the future. Fujitsu
Network Communications, which is headquartered in
Richardson, Texas, offers packet optical networking
solutions, WDM and SONET platforms manufactured in North
America. It also provides multi-vendor network services
as well as end-to-end solutions for design,
implementation, migration, support and management of
optical networks.

"After an extensive evaluation of multiple optical and
transport equipment suppliers, we are pleased to extend
our relationship with Fujitsu," said Tim Harden,
President of AT&T's Supply Chain and Fleet Operations
organization.

In August 2011, Fujitsu introduced an Ethernet
over Anything (EoX) framework that enables its
FLASHWAVE 9500 Packet Optical Networking Platform
(Packet ONP) to serve as a gateway for delivering Metro
Ethernet Forum (MEF)-compliant services across various
transport networks. Fujitsu's EoX vision, which is
initially implemented as an EoX Gateway configuration
of the FLASHWAVE 9500, now extends into the company's
portfolio of access products.
