Petah Tikva, Israel July 15, 2008 -- ECI Telecom, a global provider of networking infrastructure solutions, announced today that it has signed a three-year framework agreement with Danish utilities company ELRO, for the deployment of a nationwide WiMAX™ network across Denmark, beginning in the area of Randers.

ELRO was granted a national WiMAX license in 2007 and will be deploying the wide area network for the provisioning of voice and broadband internet services as part of the company's SkyLine service. The nationwide network rollout is expected to be completed by 2010.

"By integrating best-of-breed solutions, ECI allows us to benefit from a cost-optimized, one-stop-shop for simplified administration, maintenance and provisioning coupled with a single point-of-contact for integration and interoperability," said Søren Møller CTO Broadband of ELRO. "This is a milestone network for Denmark, with a future-proof path to transition to an all-IP-based mobile service provisioning, providing our customers with a complete offering for all their communication needs."

Joining ECI to build this advance, integrated WiMAX and transport network solution are Alvarion Ltd. (NASDAQ: ALVR), the world's leading provider of WiMAX and wireless broadband solutions, and Ceragon Networks (NASDAQ: CRNT), a leading provider of high-capacity Ethernet and TDM wireless backhaul solutions.

The network will showcase a comprehensive integrated transport, WiMAX and radio wireless backhaul solution based on IP over next-generation SDH, combining ECI's XDM® and BroadGate® Multi-Service Provisioning Platforms (MSPP), with Alvarion's award-winning BreezeMAX® WiMAX platform based on its OPEN™ WiMAX strategy, and Ceragon's FibeAir® microwave technology.

To simplify operation, administration and maintenance (OAM), the joint network will be managed under ECI's LightSoft® Network Manager, enabling end-to-end provisioning under a single, unified management platform. With its unified graphical user interface, LightSoft improves efficiency by providing users with a clear picture of the entire network and available resources.
