HP Provides Hutchison 3G Austria With Mobility Solution for LTE Network

PALO ALTO, CA, Jan 23 (MARKET WIRE) --
HP (NYSE: HPQ) today announced that Hutchison 3G (H3G) Austria, one of
the country's largest communications service providers (CSPs), deployed
the HP Home Subscriber Server (HSS) as the core of a new, long-term
evolution (LTE) network that will bring much faster speeds and a better
mobile internet experience to its 1.2 million customers.

The HP HSS is the primary repository of information on all customers,
including their personal profiles and the mobile services they use. As
the master database of all of H3G Austria's LTE users, it will help the
CSP manage network usage by controlling access, authentication and
authorization for every user on the network.

The HP HSS extends the existing HP subscriber data management
architecture at H3G Austria, which includes the HP Home Location Register
(HLR) and HP Profile Manager/User Data Repository.

"The new LTE network will provide our customers with the best possible
mobile experience, and HP played a key role in the successful integration
with our LTE network equipment provider," said Jan Trionow, chief
executive officer, Hutchison 3G Austria. "HP is a trusted partner that
has worked closely with us for years, providing a wide range of solutions
from core network to BSS and infrastructure."

As part of the LTE project, HP provided H3G Austria with additional
solutions that can increase efficiency and enhance the customer
experience:

-- Intelligent network services on the same service platform, including
real-time call control, text message welcome and roaming cost
optimization.
-- HP AAA (authentication, authorization and accounting) to streamline
service provisioning.
-- HP Internet Usage Manager for improved session management.
-- HP BSS (business support systems) for better fraud management and
revenue assurance.
-- HP Integration services for inter-carrier billing, mediation and order
management.

Many of the HP solutions deployed at H3G Austria are part of the HP
Actionable Customer Intelligence portfolio, which helps CSPs build,
analyze and act upon personalized customer profiles to improve the
customer experience.

"H3G Austria is able to transition from 3G to LTE smoothly and
cost-effectively with the HP HSS," said David Sliter, vice president and
general manager, Communications and Media Solutions, HP. "Working closely
with H3G, HP deployed a disaster-tolerant, consolidated subscriber data
management platform that uses existing hardware, software and
integrations to reduce cost and speed time to market."

Using HP NonStop server technology, the HP HSS is colocated with the HP
HLR, so subscriber data is managed as a single logical record. This
accelerates provisioning, reduces the ongoing cost of change and
evolution, and provides a better customer experience on the LTE network.

HP HSS and HP HLR are deployed at more than 40 service providers
worldwide.

HP's premier client event, HP DISCOVER, takes place June 4-7 in Las
Vegas.
