Telstra scored the business through its US subsidiary, Telstra Inc, and will supply Aicent with "a global MPLS solution to deliver improved scalability, operational efficiency, as well as extending network coverage throughout Asia Pacific." The network will be deployed largely over ethernet and, according to Telstra, will reduce infrastructure costs and increase speed and efficiency for Aicent's customer base across Australia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore, providing connections between Aicent's mobile data services and its mobile operator customers. Separately, Aicent has been providing network services to Telstra's mobile network since 2004, including GPRS Roaming Exchange (GRX) services, multimedia messaging services (MMS) and more recently SMS. Telstra recently became the first mobile operator to connected to more than 100 roaming partners for MMS.
