JDSU (Nasdaq: JDSU; TSX: JDU) today announced it has been selected
by Shanghai China Telecommunications Corporation (China Telecom),
the incumbent telecommunications carrier for China, to ensure the
installation, maintenance and monitoring of its IPTV services.
China Telecom purchased multiple units of JDSU's HST-3000 IP Video

Triple-Play Probe. Both products will be on display at IPTV World
Forum Asia 06 in Shanghai, September 27-29 (booths 42-43). "An IPTV
test and monitoring system is critical and required for IPTV
business deployment and quality of service (QoS) assurance," said
Mr. Yu Lifeng, assistant CTO for Shanghai China Telecom and
director of the Shanghai IPTV Project. "During the Shanghai China
Telecom IPTV system trial, JDSU has provided valuable experience on
IPTV testing and IPTV QoS monitoring as well as excellent support."
Combined, the HST-3000 and QT-200 platforms provide a total
solution as required by China Telecom for ensuring IPTV QoS. These
requirements include installing, maintaining and monitoring IPTV
services and broadly reducing IPTV mean-time-to-repair (MTTR).
