With the completion of the Zhejiang Unicom project, CommVerge Solutions is confident that this would further strengthen its track record in providing the best solutions for its customers. The Ditech Quad E-1 Echo Canceller, one of the many solutions that CommVerge has to offer, is indeed the best of its breed as it will allow Zhejiang Unicom to dramatically improve its services and cost structure," says Raymond Sun, President of CommVerge Solutions (China) Limited.

"We are pleased that Zhejiang Unicom selected our echo cancellers, and CommVerge Solutions, one of our premiere value-added resellers in the Pacific Rim, to enhance voice quality in their mobile network. Ditech's echo cancellers feature a suite of voice enhancement software built into the standard product, thereby eliminating the need for customers to pay for and install costly daughter-boards to provide similar capability. This Voice Quality of Service (VQoS) sotfware provides background noise control and voice leveling to improve the quality of mobile phone calls," says Tim Montgomery, President and CEO of Ditech Communications.
