ZTE Delivers Icera-Powered T-Mobile webConnect(R) Rocket(TM) 2.0 Laptop Stick for 4G Wireless Web Surfing

Mobile Broadband USB Laptop Stick Operates on T-Mobile's 4G Network; Delivers Blazing Fast Downloads for Apps, Pictures and Videos

RICHARDSON, Texas and BRISTOL, England, December 7, 2010 - ZTE Corporation, a leading global provider of telecommunications
equipment and network solutions, and Icera Inc., the mobile broadband
semiconductor company, today announced ZTE's first mobile broadband USB stick
for T-Mobile USA's 4G network,[1] the webConnect Rocket 2.0, which is powered
by Icera's Livanto(R) software-defined baseband chipset. Launched in late
July, exclusively from T-Mobile, the webConnect Rocket 2.0. delivers 4G
speeds for fast downloads of apps, pictures and videos.

"T-Mobile offers the largest 4G network in the U.S. today, and customers
in more than 80 metropolitan areas can enjoy faster Web browsing, more
seamless video streaming and quicker downloads than ever before at no
additional cost," said Jeremy Korst, Director of broadband products and
services, T-Mobile USA. "Working with ZTE and Icera on the webConnect Rocket
2.0 has enabled T-Mobile to deliver on its commitment to provide a 4G mobile
broadband experience, combined with affordable and flexible plans."

The webConnect Rocket 2.0 is the first USB modem in the US to incorporate
Icera's IceClear(TM) interference-aware technology. IceClear(TM) uses
sophisticated signal processing algorithms implemented in software to cancel
the effect of interference from other cells, potentially delivering faster
speeds to T-Mobile customers in weaker signal areas and improving network
efficiency and reliability.

Featuring an innovative dual-rotational USB design, the webConnect Rocket
2.0 can accommodate any laptop USB port configuration. T-Mobile customers can
enjoy maximum flexibility while on the road with access to T-Mobile's 4G
mobile broadband network, as well as 3G and EDGE compatibility. T-Mobile's
monthly postpaid webConnect service also includes unlimited access to
thousands of Wi-Fi hotspots on the T-Mobile HotSpot network.

The built-in T-Mobile connection manager allows users to manage all of
their mobile broadband and Wi-Fi connections, including home network, office
network and the T-Mobile HotSpot network. This software makes connecting easy
with a one-click login for the T-Mobile HotSpot network, secure
authentication through WPA and 802.1x, VPN support, auto detection of any
available wireless network and a worldwide T-Mobile HotSpot location
directory.

"The Rocket 2.0 USB showcases ZTE's technology innovation and is a major
milestone in ZTE's plan to establish its presence in the U.S. We selected
Icera's Livanto(R) chipset because of its unique, high performance soft modem
technology, which enabled the fast delivery of HSPA+ capability. This
innovative technology enabled us to complete this project on schedule," said
Mr. Lixin Cheng, CEO, ZTE USA. "T-Mobile is driving toward having the most
pervasive 4G mobile broadband network in the U.S. and we are pleased to offer
a device as part of their HSPA+ network expansion."

Stan Boland, President & CEO of Icera Inc., said: "Interference-aware
receiver technology has been known to achieve substantial user throughput and
cell capacity gains for some time, but until now has been prohibitively
complex and expensive to implement. The advantage of IceClear(TM), to
manufacturers, operators and customers, is to deliver this technology in
software at no additional silicon cost."

    - Delivers blazing fast downloads on T-Mobile's 4G network

    - Icera software-defined chipset including IceClear(TM)
      interference-aware technology
