commercially launch a converged 4G network at a national scale based on IEEE Broadband Wireless Access Standards (WiMAX). Since then, Yes has been aggressively pursuing network upgrades, launching 4G LTE services including VoLTE, and increasing the nationwide population coverage to 90%. These successes were largely contributed by YTL Construction’s engineering and implementation expertise in the civil, structural and electrical fields, to support the fast track rollout via construction and installation services of all telecommunications infrastructure for the Yes network.
Developed by Facebook, Terragraph allows people to enjoy fibre-like broadband speed without laying fibre cables. This advanced wireless technology will enable cities like Georgetown in Penang to leapfrog with quality broadband. Designed to use existing street structures, this first-in-Asia trial will enable rapid deployment of gigabit-level wireless connectivity to benefit more communities.
