Signs partnerships with Fiberail and AIMS for greater service reliability and a comprehensive network with local telecommunications operators.
Kuala Lumpur – 12 June 2008 - Packet One Networks (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. (P1), Malaysia’s WiMAX licensee holder and a subsidiary of Green Packet Berhad, is finalizing its upcoming WiMAX rollout by signing agreements with a network facility provider, Fiberail Sdn Bhd and AIMS Asia, a leading Internet transit provider.
P1’s CEO, Michael Lai, said “P1 aims to truly enhance the quality of digital lifestyle for our fellow Malaysians. By partnering with Fiberail and AIMS, we bring to people across Malaysia a faster, more reliable WiMAX experience and borderless communications – voice and data - at a fraction of the current fixed-line and mobile rates. Everything we do at P1 is evaluated through the question ‘Does this improve the way people currently live, learn and play in Malaysia’.
The tie-up with the telecommunications service provider, Fiberail, will enable P1 to accelerate its network deployment by utilizing Fiberail’s highly reliable, nationwide, fiber optic network, for its WiMAX backhaul. The agreement with Fiberail will provide greater flexibility in provisioning of scalable bandwidth for P1’s WiMAX rollout in-line with market demands. A fiber optic backhaul does not suffer from environmental interference problems, it offers large bandwith capacity and better SLAs as it does not require Line of Sight (LOS) to the access point, hence ensuring a superior WiMAX experience for the end users.
While the partnership with Fiberail contributes towards better and faster connectivity, the partnership with AIMS Asia and local telcos enhance P1’s ability to provide a better voice and data interconnect with all local and key international telecommunication providers. This will be realized through the Access Agreements signed with all local telcos and hosting of P1’s Internet upstream switch at AIMS’s datacenter.
AIMS Asia Group CEO, Afzal Abdul Rahim, said “We are extremely pleased to be a key partner of Packet One in rolling out one of the most comprehensive WiMAX networks in Malaysia and wider. Our capabilities as an Internet transit provider will enable P1 to enjoy world-class facilities putting the company on par with our other Tier 1 upstream service providing customers, such as PCCW, HGC, and Pacnet. Our fully fault-tolerant and redundant systems will allow P1 to maximize their service uptime and facilitate easier and more efficient service management”. Under this agreement, P1 will lease Internet upstream bandwidth from AIMS for international traffic and port connection to Malaysian Internet Exchange (MyIX) for local Internet traffic, he added.
Registered with MCMC, the Access Agreements with local telcos namely TM &TMNet, Maxis, Celcom, Digi and TimeDotCom; will enable P1’s Voice service users to dial numbers of other networks, allowing its subscribers to call across networks seamlessly.
