and consistent with TRIOLE, we will enhance our
telecommunications server and high-performance router
offerings for telecommunications carriers.
In the optical transport sector, we already claim a high
market share in North America and Asia-Pacific. Going
forward we will seek to promote this business
worldwide, capitalizing on our strong photonic
technologies.
In mobile communications, centering on 3G
communications infrastructure, we will continue to
focus on our business with NTT DoCoMo in Japan,
while at the same time leveraging Evolium (our joint
venture with Alcatel) to expand our business in
emerging 3G markets overseas.
In personal computers, we will continue to use supply
chain management and precise demand forecasting to
maximize operational efficiency, while offering
products that are easier to use and provide added value
through improved AV functions such as very high-
resolution displays.
We will also work to expand our mobile phones
business, focusing our resources on handsets for NTT
DoCoMo’s FOMA service. In order to accelerate the
development and commercial introduction of FOMA
handsets with significant advances in functionality, we
are discussing possible collaborative development with
Mitsubishi Electric.
In our server business, we will offer world-class
mainframe-, UNIX-, Windows- and Linux-based systems.
Regarding UNIX servers, we are expanding our
partnership with Sun Microsystems and will jointly
develop future generation Solaris and SPARC-based
systems, targeting market launch in mid-2006. As a result
of this expanded partnership with Sun, we will be able to
maintain and strengthen our competitive advantage in
UNIX servers and increase sales globally. In Intel
Architecture (IA) servers, in collaboration with Intel we
are moving ahead with development of a next-generation
mission-critical IA server to run on Windows and Linux,
which we plan to ship beginning in fiscal 2005. We will
also work to strengthen our business in high-capacity
enterprise storage systems for large-volume data
management and backup as a key element of TRIOLE.
In our IP network business, as key products fusing
information processing and communications functions,

Key Product Strategies
We will not only offer highly competitive individual
products but will leverage TRIOLE to develop our overall
platforms business. By grouping together highly
compatible individual products – including servers,
storage systems, network equipment and middleware – in
platform integration templates optimized for specific IT
functionalities, and verifying the compatibility of these
product combinations in advance, we will quickly and
efficiently construct highly reliable IT infrastructures for
our customers.
