Superonline selects Tilgin for its massive Internet and IP telephony roll-out

Stockholm, Sweden, February 10, 2010: Tilgin, a leading provider of solutions
for multiplay and next-generation broadband access, has won a prestigious order
from Ericsson in Turkey for Superonline A.S., a 100% subsidiary of Turkcell
Iletisim Hizmetleri A.S. (‘'Turkcell'') (NYSE: TKC, ISE: TCELL), the leading
telecommunications and technology company in Turkey. Superonline will implement
a solution from Tilgin and Ericsson to provide households with high-speed
Internet connections and IMS based IP-telephony. 

With this initial order, Tilgin will provide Home Gateways and software for
approximately SEK 17 million. It covers the first phase of Superonline's plan to
add some 300,000 homes passed to their FTTx network during 2010. Deliveries will
begin during Q1 2010. The local implementation will be managed by Ericsson and
Tilgin together with Superonline's staff.

“When launching this massive effort, Superonline was looking for the solution
with the highest performance, yet at a very competitive price. We are very proud
that they chose Ericsson and Tilgin as their preferred suppliers, after a very
thorough evaluation process including all players in the market, says Ola
Berglund, CEO at Tilgin. This win is the result of a close cooperation between
Tilgin and Ericsson Turkey”.

Through this new solution, Superonline will be able to use the most modern
network technology, including Tilgin Home Gateways HG1300 and Tilgin's gateway
management software HGA 570, and offer their customers 100 Mbit/s Internet
access, IMS based IP telephony and a rich Internet TV service, all over one
common network. Superonline is implementing a so called Fiber-to-the-Building
solution with a 100 Mbit/s Ethernet connection to each home, equivalent to the
capacity of most office networks. 

 “When evaluating the different vendors' gateways, we searched for a solution
that combined high performance, ease-of-use and flexibility with a low total
cost of ownership. Tilgin delivers all of this with its combination of
reliability, high performance and state-of-the-art software,” says Murat Erkan,
CEO at Superonline.
The high capacity, together with intelligent remote management functionality and
support for quality of service, will enable the most demanding services
including multiple high definition TV streams (HDTV).

“This is yet another proof point that operators view our solution as being the
most advanced in the market today. It enables them to take full advantage of
fiber networks. This order also proves that Tilgin has the scale and supply
chain to support even the largest roll-outs, says Ola Berglund, CEO at Tilgin.”

Tilgin develops high performance solutions for next generation broadband
networks. They support superior quality delivery of high-speed Internet,
telephony, and television services. The solutions also include auto-provisioning
using the standard TR-069 with rich possibilities for operators to remotely
manage all home gateways and other connected home devices, e.g. IPTV
Set-Top-Boxes.
