ECI Telecom Selected as Sole Supplier for National Packet-Optical Network in Poland

— ECI expands market opportunities in region with new customer ATM S.A. —

ECI Telecom Ltd. (NASDAQ: ECIL), a global provider of networking infrastructure equipment, today announced that ATM S.A., a leading integrator and carrier of carriers in Poland, has selected ECI’s optical solution to build its first national converged TDM-packet-DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) backbone network. Through this converged architecture, ATM will be able to offer its carrier customers a multitude of high-speed circuit, data and wavelength services.

ATM selected ECI Telecom’s flagship XDM® line of MultiService Transport Platforms (MSTP) to upgrade its existing optical network because of its efficient multi-degree flexibility that enables several network layers on one platform including DWDM, Ethernet and SDH. These platforms will be first deployed in four cities in Southern Poland.

The XDM’s All-Range™ WDM optics, supporting a full range of distances from metro access to regional and long haul, will be used by ATM to cost-effectively bridge very long fiber spans and to easily expand the network into other parts of Poland in 2008. In addition, the XDM’s unique feature-set of optical transport network (OTN) mapping and multiplexing will ensure highest transparency, quality of service and multi-vendor interoperability for all SDH and data services, including 10GE LAN.

“Demand for bandwidth in Poland is growing and to stay competitive we have to quickly, yet cost-effectively, build a new backbone network, that is able to offer a variety of services,” stated Roman Szwed, President of ATM S.A. “ECI is supplying us with a flexible solution that satisfy both our technological and business needs.”

“This selection underscores our platform’s unique value proposition for carriers of carriers’ networks, such as ATM, and our focus in fast growing markets, such as Poland,” said Shimon Levany, Regional President for ECI Telecom.
