March 14, 2006

Leading Japanese Broadband Provider Plans to Build VoIP Network to Provide High Value-Added Telecommunications Services
    CHELMSFORD, Mass. and TOKYO, March 14
/Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Sonus Networks (Nasdaq: SONS), a
leading supplier of service provider voice over IP (VoIP)
infrastructure solutions, today announced that KDDI, a
leading telecommunication service provider in Japan,
selected Sonus Networks as the exclusive vendor for their
convergence-enabled packet voice network.

    In the first phase of this multi-million dollar
contract, KDDI is deploying Sonus' industry-leading
architecture, including the GSX9000(TM) Open Services
Switch, the PSX(TM) Call Routing Server and the Sonus
Insight(TM) Element Management System.  The new packet
voice network will deliver enhanced voice services to one
of the most technologically advanced societies in the world
and is planned to be the largest IP telephony network in
Japan. 

    "By 2008, KDDI plans to have 100 percent of its
long-distance traffic on a Sonus-based VoIP network,"
said Yukio Takahashi, General Manager, IP Network
Engineering Division, Corporate Technology Sector, KDDI
Corporation.  "Sonus has demonstrated a clear
commitment to the Japanese market, with a proven record of
delivering superior products and customer support.  With
this implementation, we will realize substantial
operational savings and have the flexibility to expand our
IP-based network to offer feature-rich next generation
services, thereby delivering enhanced customer loyalty and
satisfaction."

    In the first phase of this deployment, KDDI is
deploying Sonus' solution to deliver long distance
functionality for their consumer voice service plans --
Metal Plus, MYLINE and Hikari Plus.  In future phases of
the deployment, KDDI will expand its ubiquitous network to
deliver triple-play services to customers nationwide.

    "KDDI's deployment represents a major milestone in
the evolution of the market and reaffirms their leadership
position in the broadband communications industry,"
said Hassan Ahmed, chairman and CEO, Sonus Networks. 
"KDDI has taken a very aggressive approach because
they recognize both the immediate and longer term benefits
to their business and their customers.  We are very proud
that KDDI has selected Sonus as the foundation for their
new VoIP network." 

    "Sonus Networks is uniquely positioned to
effectively enable KDDI's transition to a VoIP network
because of our experience in the Japanese market and the
proven scalability and reliability of our solutions in both
wireline and wireless networks.  By deploying a packet voice
network from Sonus, KDDI can be confident that they will
continue to deliver the same high levels of service that
their customers have come to expect.  Additionally, the
Sonus solution enables KDDI to rapidly expand their network
into new segments of the market and to deliver new
services," said Takayuki Oshima, Managing Director of
Japan, Sonus Networks.
