       Intec wins another 3G mobile mediation deal - with APBW in Taiwan



  * CDMA2000 service will launch using Inter-mediatE for mobile prepaid and
    postpaid voice, data, content and other services.



London/Taipei, 13 May 2003: Intec Telecom Systems, a global provider of
Operations Support Systems (OSS) for the communications industry, has signed a
deal with Taiwan-based 3G mobile operator Asia Pacific Broadband Wireless
Communications (APBW) to supply its convergent mediation solution Inter-mediatE
TM. Intec's solution will meet the complex 3G requirements of APBW by offering
support for voice, data, content and other services as well as prepaid and
postpaid business models. APBW plans to launch the first CDMA2000 commercial
service in the country this year in the 800MHz frequency band that was awarded
in the recent Taiwan 3G spectrum auction.



"Inter-mediatE offers APBW a fully convergent and customisable mobile mediation
solution with the sort of flexible usage collection and  processing capabilities
that a 3G operator with multiple services will require," says John Rocca,
Intec's director for Asia-Pacific. "Inter-mediatE's powerful, distributed
architecture will easily manage APBW's business needs and network traffic
levels, delivering the highest quality of information to its downstream systems
and maximising revenue potential from its next-generation services."



Through the installation of the Intec's Inter-mediatE platform, APBW will attain
fully convergent mediation capabilities to support the deployment of next
generation mobile technologies. Inter-mediatE will help the company gather,
process, and distribute usage data from its network in real-time. It will also
give APBW the flexibility to implement its own business rules for mediation
processing, enabling the company to launch new products and services quickly in
full support of marketing initiatives and changing regulatory requirements.









Commenting on the deal, Kevin Adams, Intec's CEO said: "This agreement further
establishes Intec's Inter-mediatE solution as the world-leading mobile and 3G
convergent mediation platform, particularly for next generation services. As
mobile communications evolves, new technologies will provide mobile operators
with different products and services. Intec's solution will ensure that APBW is
at the forefront of these technological changes by giving them the scalability
to manage increasing call traffic and the flexibility to support next generation
service products."
