Nortel and BT sign 4-year enterprise telephony deal

Nortel and British Telecom announced they have extended their global trading agreement for Nortel's enterprise telephony equipment and services for four years. The companies said in a release the deal will enable them to "address customers' needs whether it be voice, contact centres, routing, LANs or VPNs."

The deal extension is good news for Nortel; the company's ongoing bankruptcy proceedings have caused concern over the renewal of existing partnerships.
