Two International Data and Telecom Operators Purchase SEK 5.4 Million Worth of Network Capacity from Song Networks


STOCKHOLM, Sweden, June 10, 2002 (PRIMEZONE) -- Song Networks AB, a Swedish subsidiary of Song Networks Holding AB (Nasdaq:SONW), (Stockholm Stock Exchange:SONW), has signed agreements with two international data and telecom operators. Worth approximately SEK 5.4 million over one year, these agreements comprise the supply of network capacity for both telephony and data traffic.

"The fact that international operators who do not own their own Nordic network have chosen to purchase capacity from Song, shows that our backbone fibre and access network is maintaining a high level of quality. Thanks to competitive prices and a good capacity to deliver, we won both these deals in competition with other operators with a network of their own," said Mats Almgren, Sales Director of Song Networks AB.

The agreement relates to the supply of a wavelength capacity of 2.5 Gbit/s and a fixed SDH connection of 622 Mbit/s in Song Networks' Nordic fibre-optic broadband network.

The wavelength connection is a transparent point-to-point connection that can carry all kinds of traffic up to 2.5 Gbit/s. The SDH connection is redundant (two logical connections) and primarily intended for telephony.
