Replacing the incumbent vendor, VNPT gains AI-driven anomaly detection to safeguard roaming service quality

TEL AVIV, Israel, Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — RADCOM Ltd. (Nasdaq: RDCM) announced today that VNPT (Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications Group), one of Vietnam’s largest telecom operators, with over 30 million subscribers, has selected RADCOM to provide AI-native, cloud-native service assurance for its roaming network. Following a competitive request for proposal (RFP) process, VNPT selected RADCOM to replace its incumbent assurance vendor, reflecting the strength of RADCOM’s AI-driven platform and its proven track record with Tier-1 operators.

Drawing on RADCOM’s proven multi-cloud deployment expertise, the cloud-native RADCOM ACE platform will be deployed across multiple cloud environments, giving VNPT real-time, subscriber-aware visibility across these services and applying artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML)-based anomaly detection to surface issues before they affect the customer experience. This containerized, multi-cloud architecture gives VNPT a scalable, efficient assurance foundation that can grow with its network and adapt as new services are introduced.

“VNPT is one of the most respected and technically advanced operators in Asia, and they set a high bar in this selection,” said Benny Eppstein, Chief Executive Officer at RADCOM. “Displacing an incumbent through a competitive RFP at an operator of VNPT’s standing is a strong signal for RADCOM in Asia-Pacific, and we see clear room to extend assurance across more of their network over time. We look forward to supporting VNPT as it continues to grow and evolve its network.”

The selection marks a strategically important reference win for RADCOM in the Asia-Pacific region and establishes a foundation to extend assurance beyond roaming across VNPT’s wider network. With this modern assurance foundation in place, VNPT is positioned to broaden real-time, AI-driven assurance as its network and services continue to scale. As previously announced on August 12, 2026, this contract was one of three contracts RADCOM secured following the close of the second quarter of 2026.

Z Squared Acquires Energized Arkansas Campus to Advance AI Infrastructure Strategy

Published

on

By

Union County Campus has existing electric service of up to approximately 8.0 MW and a phased development target of an estimated 150+ MW

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Z Squared Inc. (Nasdaq: ZSQR) (“Z Squared” or the “Company”) today announced the closing of its acquisition of Paradox Data, LLC from Paradox Infrastructure LLC, bringing the energized Union County Campus in El Dorado, Arkansas (the “Union County Campus”), into its computing infrastructure portfolio. The acquisition gives Z Squared its first owned, energized campus and a site from which to advance its planned AI colocation business.

The campus has electric service already flowing under an existing interruptible service arrangement with Entergy Arkansas, LLC for up to approximately 8.0 MW. That existing grid connection provides a starting point for phased conversion into high-density space for customers that bring and operate their own computing equipment.

Paradox Data, LLC also holds contractual rights to acquire adjacent land and a development pathway targeting 150+ MW of AI-ready capacity over time through a combination of utility power and on-site generation. Expansion will depend on additional power arrangements, customer commitments, financing, permitting and construction. Capacity above the existing service arrangement is a development target and is not currently contracted, energized or delivered.

“In August we told our shareholders to judge us on four things: whether the Paradox acquisition closes, whether we sign our first paying tenant and megawatt commitments, whether energized capacity at Union County grows beyond the current 8 megawatts, and whether we add sites without taking on debt,” said David Halabu, Chief Executive Officer of Z Squared. “We have met our first goal. We closed, we paid in stock, and we took on no debt to do it. Union County gives us power already flowing, land under contract for expansion, and a path to pursue 150+ megawatts of AI-ready capacity. The work now is the first phase: the engineering, the power planning and the first customer commitment. We will report against those same four measures as we go. Our intention is for Union County to be the first owned campus rather than the only one, subject to the same discipline we have applied here.”

Advancing the First Phase

With the acquisition complete, Z Squared’s near-term priorities at Union County include first-phase high-density electrical and cooling design, utility and on-site generation planning, advancing the adjacent land acquisition, and securing the first binding customer request for service.

As previously announced, the Company has engaged A2 Advisors, a strategic advisory and executive management firm focused on digital infrastructure, to support site-development planning, project delivery, vendor and partner alignment, and leasing and capital strategy at the campus.

Union County is intended to contribute to Z Squared’s previously announced Phase 1 objective of developing 100 MW of AI-ready capacity across multiple U.S. sites. The Company’s approach is to acquire energized, grid-connected properties and deploy conversion capital site by site against customer commitments and operational readiness.

The acquisition was completed entirely in stock, with no cash paid at closing and no debt financing incurred for the transaction.

Additional information regarding the transaction, including the material terms of the purchase agreement, is contained in the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed or to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

About Z Squared Inc.

Z Squared Inc. is a computing infrastructure company operating advanced computing equipment and expanding into AI infrastructure. The Company’s strategy is built on three principles: lead with power by acquiring operating sites where power is already flowing; build for AI workloads by converting that capacity into AI-ready colocation where the customer brings the compute and runs what they need; and scale with discipline by deploying conversion capital site by site, against signed contracts and operational readiness. Z Squared’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “ZSQR” in April 2026.
