4 OUR COMMUNICATION INFRASTRUCTURE Our MPLS Core network connects and covers the entire country We seize opportunities that emerging telecom technologies provide, helping us in offering total solutions for new generation networks.

5 Qualitynet's robust and state-of-the-art MPLS backbone based network covers the entire length and breadth of Kuwait. The backbone network is based on Fiber Optic medium that provides a high level of resilience and full network redundancy. Access to the backbone network is primarily through High Speed Giga Ethernet, which provides all kinds of VLL, VPLS and VPRN technologies, along with legacy services such as Frame Relay, ADSL and ISDN technologies. Our Network Strength & Capacity One of the elite aspects that keep Qualitynet unique in the region is our Network Strength, Diversity and Reach. The speeds (bandwidths) that we deliver to customers include: n 64 Kbps, multiple of E1s (2 Mbps), DS3s (45 Mbps), STM-1s (155 Mbps), STM-4s (622 Mbps), Fast (100 Mbps) Ethernet, Gigabit (1024 Mbps) Ethernet and 10 Gig Ethernet. The platform technologies we employ consist of xdsl (ADSL, ADSL2, ADSL2+, VDSL), Frame Relay (E1), ATM (Clear Channel, Frame Relay, Ethernet), IP/MPLS (VLL, VPLS, VPRN) and SDH (Clear Channel). Together, our speeds and platform technologies combine to give us an easy edge in terms of Quality of Service (QoS), Class of Service (CoS) and Traffic Engineering.

6 OUR GLOBAL REACH Similar to our diversified Core & Access local network, we have built a state-ofthe-art diversified International Gateway. The gateway operated by Qualitynet offers premium Data & Internet services with high availability & Quality of Service. Our International Gateway setup is built through multiple international peering with Tier-1 Carriers, using fully redundant connectivity over diversified Submarine & Terrestrial Fiber Optic Systems.

12 Services offered by Qualitynet over MPLS Internet Protocol Virtual Private Network (IP-VPN) Qualitynet's IP-VPN is engineered to support a range of powerful managed application services that can radically improve your business processes and overall operational efficiency. Virtual Leased Line (VLL) A point-to-point virtual private network connection, connecting two customer edge devices transparently at two different locations, as if they had a traditional leased line in between. Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) An Ethernet based multipoint-to-multipoint communication, providing connectivity to multiple customer sites in a manner that is transparent to the customer edge devices. Virtual Private Routing Network (VPRN) Providing a way to communicate between locations without having to lease traditional circuits, VPRN uses labeled tunnels to create a private WAN (Wide Area Network), for sharing confidential information over an absolute secure path. It enforces privacy through traffic segregation and the isolation of IP routing information per VPRN instance.

13 INTERNATIONAL PRIVATE LEASED CIRCUITS (IPLC) IPLC connects major national and international organizations with a direct link to their global offices for end-to-end connectivity. With IPLCs, organizations that need to constantly exchange large volume of data between point to point (one-to-one applications) or multi-point (one-to-many application) locations can maximize their data throughput by having exclusive and dedicated connectivity between their points of presence round the clock, day in and day out. Charged at a fixed monthly rental that is irrespective of usage, the circuit becomes more economical as it is used more. A wide variety of upgradable operating speeds are offered to suit customer's needs. Qualitynet s IPLC Service offers: 24-hour access through permanent dedicated links. Fixed monthly rental irrespective of usage, mean cost savings over increased usage. Full duplex operation saves time and eliminates the inconvenience of waiting to send while receiving traffic,and vice versa. Wide variety of transmission speeds, from 64 Kbps and multiples of 64 Kbps. Round the clock support from Qualitynet s Service Management Center & Network Operation Center. Quality Service through Service Level Agreements.

14 OUR GLOBAL CONNECTIVITY SERVICES Utilizing state-of-the-art technology and a dedicated team to design the best solutions for your business, we provide companies around the globe with the ability to connect and transfer data seamlessly, securely and reliably. MULTI PROTOCOL LABEL SWITCHING (MPLS) MPLS is a highly scalable, protocol agnostic, data-carrying mechanism, which creates virtual links between nodes on the network, regardless of the protocol of their encapsulated data. With MPLS, customers can tie all of their locations together, eliminating carrier hardware in their telecom closet, and prioritize all of their data traffic so that voice and video run flawlessly - even when the network is at its busiest.
