Pressbox (Press Release) - Geneva, Switzerland – November 20, 2001 – Creative Electronic Systems, SA (CES) is today unveiling its Transport Network Solution (TNS) which is an IP and ATM multi-service platform for telecommunication equipment focusing on the Third Generation Cellular (3G) arena.

The TNS innovative architecture allows easy transition from ATM to IP and ensures therefore a smooth UMTS migration path. It provides a world-class set of IP and ATM features for both transmission and switching and includes interworking of ATM, POS and TDM and ATM-IP transport media.

“CES provides a full hardware and software transport solution for 3G vendors in a one-stop-shop approach” said Francois-Henri Worm, Director, “This way we can dramatically reduce multi-vendor integration and risks for our customers”.

All these features make the TNS ideally suited for 3G applications and other access systems:

· 3G Base Transceiver Stations (Node B)
· 3G Radio Network Control (RNC)
· 3G Serving GPRS support node (SGSN)
· 3G Mobile Switch Center for UMTS (MSCU)
· Media gateways (VoIP, Circuit gateway, Signaling gateway)
· Multi-service line cards

The TNS, based on the state of the art WinPath™ network processor from Wintegra™ Inc (www.wintegra.com), is flexible enough to cope with constantly changing and evolving specifications of the 3GPP and IETF, yet is extremely powerful on both data and control paths with most of the functions performed in hardware.

A complete software offering including all the 3GPP Transport Network Layers for Iub (Node B – RNC), Iur (RNC – RNC), Iu-PS (RNC – SGSN) and Iu-CS (RNC – MSCU) alleviates the customer from developing these layers and allows focus to be on customer applications.
