Alcatel Alsthom said it is embarking on its quarterly road show to showcase its corporate strategy and offerings for both the wireless and fixed market to investors and financial analysts.
The company said it aim is to “maintain a differentiating strategy for a major transformation of our markets.”
Headlining the road show will be a presentation about the company’s foothold in the mobile and fixed business, as well as what it calls the private communications market. It will also reveal its forecast and plan for 2005.
In the mobile area, the company will demonstrate its carrier relationships as well as its second- and third-generation infrastructure offerings with their operational and capital expenditure savings implications.
The company will talk up its Internet Protocol strategy and show how it has set in motion a slew of migrations: from networking to data centers, from discrete applications to enterprise wide applications and from “shared services” hubs to service integration.
Central to this is what it describes as its triple play, which includes IP Voice, high-speed Internet access and IP TV. IP voice involves integration with WiMAX and mobile infrastructure.
The company only recently decided to move full blast into the CDMA market, especially in the United States.
The French vendor also said it has entered into an infrastructure agreement with Aruba Networks for the enterprise space.
Under this deal, Aruba’s products and technology will be integrated into Alcatel’s CrystalSec security framework for delivering converged enterprise for mobility solutions.
“The joint solution establishes the mobile user’s identity and subsequently enables “follow-me” user privileges, security and services,” said both companies.
