[Bangalore, India, July 2, 2007] Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. ("Huawei"), a leader
in providing next generation telecommunications network solutions for operators
around the world, announced that its broadband access products and solutions serve
50 million DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) customers worldwide. According to the
latest report published by Infonetics, a data networking and telecom market research
consulting firm, as of the first quarter of 2007, Huawei is still ranked No.1 in the
global IP DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) market.

Huawei has always been committed to innovation in access networks. In early 2001,
Huawei launched the world's first commercial IP DSLAM product, accelerating the
transformation to IP access network. Following that, Huawei took the lead in rolling
out FE (Fast Ethernet) and GE(Gigabit Ethernet)-based large-capacity IP DSLAM, which
enabled operators to construct flattened, high-bandwidth, future-oriented broadband
networks. In 2006, Huawei unveiled the industry's first terabit GPON access system
and FTTx solution, which helped operators fulfill the requirements of current
services such as Multi-play, and paved the way for future ultra-high bandwidth
services. For four consecutive years from 2003, Huawei grabbed the largest market
share in IP DSLAM, making it a leader in IP access networks.

"Successfully serving 50 million DSL customers around the world demonstrates that
Huawei's broadband access products and services are widely recognized and adopted by
industry operators globally," said Mr. Daniel Tang, vice president of Huawei's
network product line. "By focusing on the needs of its customers, Huawei can offer
innovative IP access solutions and services, enabling operators to largely reduce
network TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) and achieve their business goals."

"The milestone of 200 million DSL customers was just announced by DSL Forum," said
Michael Hanrahan, a member of the DSL Forum Board of Directors, a renowned
standardization organization in the industry. "Huawei has been active in analyzing
industry trends and setting industry standards, contributing to the development of
DSL Standards and the worldwide use of broadband applications."

By the end of 2006, Huawei had devoted more than 2,000 engineers to the R&D of
access technology. As the leader in IP DSLAM and MSAN, Huawei had shipped more than
120 million DSLAM and MSAN ports to customers in 85 countries and regions around the
world, through world class carriers such as China Telecom, China Netcom, BT and KPN.
