Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. will replace the present Ring Back Tone (RBT) platform used by mobile services operator, "life:)", in the Ukraine with its new proprietary Caller Ring Back Tone (CRBT) platform.

Huawei's RBT system, which was selected to meet the growing GSM subscribers and traffic growth on the operator's network, will be the second CRBT solution deployed in Ukraine. In 2007, Huawei carried out a similar project for MTS Company.

"RBT is a major value-added service for us," said Mehmet Gokhan Koc, Head of the VAS Division of "life:)". "Having the right partner that can provide us with modern solutions is very important because it results in an increase of the service's profitability and enhances our competitive advantages in music content sales. Huawei has a wealth of experience in the sphere of RBT and we expect that after the deployment of this new platform our RBT service will experience further growth in the quantity of subscribers."

"Huawei is a world-leader in providing RBT solutions," added Wei Feng, General Director of Ukraine Representative Office, Huawei. "We are committed to providing reliable and modernized RTB solutions to help our customers all over the world."
