Redknee's Interconnect Billing and Content Settlement Solution to Support Growing Traffic and Multi-party Settlements

Redknee (TSX:RKN), a leading provider of business-critical billing and charging software and solutions for communications service providers, announced that a leading Asia Pacific based multi-service operator will install Redknee's InBill solution to manage its interconnect billing functions. InBill 6.0 will enable it to maximize the value of its fixed line network by effectively and efficiently managing multi-party wholesale billing settlements, helping to avoid issues related to revenue leakage.

The service provider supports multiple technologies and has been experiencing growing fixed line traffic and evolving interconnect requirements due to the expansion of its network of partners and the roll-out of new services for its residential, government and enterprise customers. As a result, it requires a flexible and highly scalable interconnect billing solution that addresses the changing needs around its growing list of voice,

data, and broadband offerings, and can support the operator's innovative services, such as e-Government solutions, prepaid fixed line voice and broadband, and voice over IP with number portability. InBill 6.0 delivers

details on network traffic and settlement issues and can handle the most complex interconnect agreements, providing more accurate wholesale billing and better dispute resolution. In today's environment of operators dealing with numerous interconnect and content partners and increasingly tighter margins, InBill helps to alleviate the challenges of this complexity.

Redknee's InBill 6.0 also provides network operators with enhanced performance and a seamless workflow, optimizing time and resources and enabling the operator to focus on their core asset, their subscribers. InBill's user-friendly interface can now be accessed from any web based terminal, providing a more flexible, yet secure, user environment.

Additionally, InBill 6.0 has added international traffic capabilities, including wholesale billing for growing international voice over IP and session initiation protocol (SIP) traffic.

Lucas Skoczkowski, CEO, Redknee said:

"This is another win that further validates Redknee's leadership and experience in delivering market recognized monetization solutions, and extends Redknee's strong and growing footprint throughout the Asia Pacific region. The high-growth markets are an important part of Redknee's growth strategy, and we

have been consistently gaining market share in these regions, especially with our Turnkey Converged Billing solution. We look forward to continuing to support our customers throughout the APAC region."

InBill is part of Redknee's full suite of monetization products, providing operators with greater visibility into network transactions in order to achieve converged settlement and accurate interconnect billing.
