Dacom, a leading Korean service provider, will base its next generation voice network on Nortel Networks Succession Communication Server (CS) 2000-Compact superclass softswitch and Multimedia Communication Server (MCS) 5200. The Dacom contract was awarded to Nortel Networks through its Korea channel distributor, ITIAN Corporation. Financial terms were not disclosed.
