PUCHONG: Living up to its promise to deliver more #khabarbaik, unifi revealed that a pre-5G wireless technology is now available for unifi customers.
The nation’s first pre-5G via Time Division Duplex (TDD) technology is part of unifi’s effort towards powering the nation with 5G connectivity.
The project, which started in Q4 last year, has already entered its commercial phase and the residents and business owners at SetiaWalk Puchong will be the first to enjoy the pre-5G TDD fast connectivity.
At the showcase, Moharmustaqeem Mohammed, Acting Executive Vice President at unifi said:
“The technology is set to improve unifi’s wireless connectivity services, especially for high-rise buildings and dense residential areas with low fixed broadband penetration, allowing for wireless Internet access sharing at home and on-the-go within LTE coverage areas.
“We are very excited to share another exciting khabarbaik. Unifi has been developing the country’s first pre-5G technology via TDD and we are happy to say that the pre-5G network can deliver larger capacity at about 500Mbps, which is double than the existing 4G technology.
“This has put unifi a step forward in providing a better service and experience to our customers in the wireless segment.
Not only that our new pre-5G capability will enable us to bypass wiring limitations in areas we previously could not penetrate, this technology also brings us one step closer to the country’s 5G milestone,” explains Moharmustaqeem who also added that the enhancement is a huge step for Malaysia’s telecommunications industry and that unifi will continue to develop the best technology that can be deployed in every part of the country—urban, high density residential areas, even to rural areas.
Aside from home customers, the unifi pre-5G technology will also improve the unifi Mobile experience where its customers can seamlessly enjoy favourite content on unifi Play TV either at home or on-the-move.
As Malaysia’s convergence champion, unifi hopes to push forward the pre-5G technology and bring faster more affordable Internet access to the nation.
“We are committed to continue transforming the digital way of life and making Internet connectivity a ubiquitous part of the Malaysian lifestyle.
“On one hand, we wish to increase our reach across the nation so that every Malaysian can stay connected also we esteem to provide the best fit-for-purpose technology provider that not only improves the experience for our existing customers, but also expands the digital adoption towards making Malaysia a digital nation,” says Moharmustaqeem.
