ZTE Selects Mindspeed’s Comcerto 300xv VoIP Processor for Network Access Equipment Solutions

Mindspeed Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: MSPD), a leading supplier of semiconductor solutions for network infrastructure applications, today announced that ZTE Corporation, a leading global provider of telecommunications equipment and network solutions, has selected Mindspeed®’s Comcerto® 300xv voice-over-IP (VoIP) processor for use in ZTE’s xPON access products.

ZTE's network access products enable service providers in China to deliver voice and high-speed broadband services to subscribers in multi-tenant dwellings and office buildings, with significantly lower capital and operating expenses than traditional voice networks.

"Mindspeed's Comcerto 300xv family of VoIP processors provides a complete VoIP media processing solution with minimal design modifications,” said Mr. Chen Hairong, the hardware director of ZTE’s Network Department. "Today’s users increasingly demand higher levels of service from the telecommunications provider. By utilizing the Comcerto 300xv, ZTE is able to provide the large-capacity, high-speed, wide-bandwidth and high-quality data, video, voice and multimedia services necessary to address these demands.”

"We are pleased that ZTE continues to adopt Comcerto solutions for their network access equipment products,” said Ernest Muhigana, marketing director for carrier VoIP products at Mindspeed. "Comcerto devices are available in a broad range of channel densities and common packages, all operating Mindspeed's field-proven software. This allows customers to develop lower-density systems well suited to remotely deployed access equipment, as well as higher-density systems supporting thousands of channels for core network applications, while offering a common set of industry-leading features and capabilities.”
