HONG KONG - March 6, 2002 - CPCNet Hong Kong
Limited, a CITIC Pacific (SEHK: 0267) company, today
launched TrueConnect, a next-generation corporate private
network solution for enterprises that require a direct,
secure and high-performance network connecting locations
across Greater China. TrueConnect is an end-to-end managed
network solution that utilizes state-of-the-art Multi-Protocol
Label Switching-based (MPLS-based) technology. MPLS
enables more efficient management of data traffic, thereby
delivering higher performance for applications such
as data, voice, fax and video.
CPCNet will initially offer TrueConnect in seven cities
across Greater China including Hong Kong, Taiwan, Shanghai,
Beijing, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Wuhan. Service coverage
will be expanded to additional cities and countries
in the next six months.
"TrueConnect is a demonstration of CPCNet's strategic
vision combining our next generation IP network with
unmatched Greater China service fulfillment capabilities
for a truly 'one-stop' solution," said Stephen
Ho, CEO of CPCNet. "China's accession to the WTO
is a powerful catalyst for both inbound and outbound
business opportunities in China. CPCNet's TrueConnect
is an ideal next-generation networking solution that
will increase cross-border collaboration through technology
and therefore, enhance competitiveness for businesses
focusing on China."
In addition to delivering high-performance, secure
data transmission, intra- and inter-company communications,
TrueConnect is launched strategically to pave way for
advanced IP applications such as voice over IP (VoIP)
and video conferencing. TrueConnect's MPLS-based IP
network also presents unparalleled cost advantages with
higher scalability and quality of service as compared
to traditional technologies such as International Private
Leased Circuit (IPLC), Frame Relay, or Asynchronous
Transfer Mode (ATM).
"TrueConnect is a tremendous step forward for
businesses in Greater China. TrueConnect's MPLS-based
corporate private network is a cost-effective alternative
to traditional technologies and does not compromise
network security, quality, performance, or reliability,"
added Ho.
With the state-of-the-art MPLS technology combining
routing and switching efficiencies, TrueConnect achieves
optimization of a shared architecture that keeps costs
low while enjoying high performance and stringent security
measures. MPLS-based network also allows for fast and
easy network expansion and upgrades through simple reconfiguration
of routers.
TrueConnect also aligns with CPCNet's "one-stop-shop"
value proposition as it delivers a hassle-free corporate
private network solution. CPCNet takes care of the entire
process from service consultation, order management,
logistics, operations coordination, and equipment setup
to 24x7 technical support, providing customer a fully
managed corporate private network solution in the Greater
China region.
CPCNet will be exhibiting and demonstrating its TrueConnect
corporate private network solution at Booth H1 at Hong
Kong's Information Infrastructure Expo 2002 to be held
