Maxis to provide TM with 4G and 2G domestic infrastructure

TM will access Maxis’ 4G Multi Operator Core Network (MOCN) and 4G and 2G Domestic Roaming Services to enhance mobile connectivity.
 
MOCN is a radio access network (RAN) sharing mechanism that allows different core networks to share the same RAN. Through this, TM will extend its 4G coverage and improve Unifi Mobile’s population coverage to above 95%.

“Industry collaboration is the right way forward as it will ultimately benefit consumers with wider coverage through better cost efficiency and more efficient use of our resources,” said Maxis CEO Goh Seow Eng.
 
“Our partnership will elevate TM’s 4G mobile proposition. It will complement our 5G offering,” said TM Group CEO Imri Mokhtar.
 
Maxis will provide approximately 6,800 sites for 4G MOCN and domestic roaming (DR) services and 10,000 sites for 2G DR.
