The Sentul Network Operations Centre (NOC), situated in Sentul Park, was carefully designed and built by leading telecommunications infrastructure development experts at INN Construction Pte Ltd, to house and support the network infrastructure for INN Communications and their robust mobile network Yes 4G that provides nationwide population coverage across the country.
The Sentul NOC was developed and constructed in two phases. The first phase was completed in 2009 and houses the legacy network for ‘Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access’ (WiMAX). The second phase was completed in 2014 and it houses the present Yes 4G mobile networks for ‘Long Term Evolution Time-Division Duplex’ (LTE-TDD) and ‘Long Term Evolution Frequency-Division Duplex’ (LTE-FDD).
Yes was officially launched on 19 November 2010 in Singapore and was the first in the world to 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 Inn 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.
As the main contractor and infrastructure builder for KJS, Inn Construction Pte Ltd is heavily involved in the extensive range of telecommunications projects under KJS which includes building rooftop stations, Rapid Deployment Structures (RDS), lamp pole and monopole structures, and lattice tower structures with heights spanning 18 to 76 m.
