Data and Internet Network
In 2014, we continued to improve the quality of our data network by providing additional capacity and coverage.
In this year, we provided broadband access using MSAN technology with 13.3 million homepass. As of December
31, 2014, we have expanded our metro ethernet network by 874,450Mbps which is able to provide broadband
services throughout Indonesia. The Metro ethernet is also used as the main link for the IP DSLAM, MSAN for
Speedy which is in the process of being rebranded to IndiHome broadband, softswitch, IP VPN and GPON
broadband for mobile backhaul, corporate business solutions and triple pay services. As of December 31,
2014, we have added additional 11,802 BTS node B, bringing it to a total of 38,836 BTS node B.
As of December 31, 2014, we have extended the capacity of our internet gateway to reach an installed capacity
of 390,2 Gbps. This ensures the adequacy of the capacity of the internet gateway so that it is able to anticipate
the expected growth in broadband traffic for both fixed and mobile. In 2014, we also operated a content distribution
network “CDN” with a capacity of 261Gbps in collaboration with Akamai, Google and Yahoo.
Throughout 2014, we continued to expand the scope of Indonesia’s Wi-Fi services by deploying additional
network access points either through internal development programs and various forms of cooperation with third
parties. As of December 2014, a total of 177,514 access points have been installed.
Data Center
Our subsidiary, Telkomsigma, manages our data center. With the support of Telkom Indonesia’s network across
Indonesia, we expect Telkomsigma’s data center to reach a total building area of 100,000m
2
by 2015. With the capabilities of this network, Telkomsigma will be able
to provide integrated data storage solutions for many companies in Indonesia, including for those located far
from the big cities.
Transmission Network
As of 2014, our broadband network serves as the backbone for our entire network infrastructure. Our backbone telecommunications network consists of transmission networks, remote switching facilities and core routers, which
connect a number of access nodes. The transmission links between nodes and switching facilities comprise a terrestrial transmission network, in particular fiber optic, microwave and submarine cable networks, as well as satellite
transmission networks and other transmission technologies.

Note: The backbone transmission unit uses E1, STM1 equivalent to 63 E1, STM4 equivalent to 4 STM1, STM16 equivalent to 4 STM4, STM64 equivalent to 4 STM16, and STM256 equivalent to 4 STM64. STM or Synchronous Transfer Mode STM is the unit typically used in backbone
transmission networks. Facilitating broadband services requires high capacity transmission networks using nxSTM-1 units. E1 units are used to support legacy services.

APPENDICE S
We operate two satellites, namely Telkom-1 and Telkom-2. Telkom-1 has a capacity of 36 transponders consisting
of 24 Standard C-Band transponders and 12 extended C-band transponders, while Telkom-2 has a capacity of
24 C-band transponders Standards. Both satellites are controlled from the main control station in Cibinong -
Bogor, West Java, and to ensure the continuity of services, since early 2014 we have had a backup control station
in Banjamasin Borneo.
In addition to our Telkom-1 and Telkom-2 satellites, we also lease transponder capacity for 35 TPE transponder
equivalent, 36 Mhz, comprising 9 TPE from the JSAT- 5A 132 BT satellite, 10 TPE from the Etuelsat 172A 172
BT satellite, 8 TPE from the Chinasat-10 110 BT satellite, 6 TPE from the Intelsat-8 169 BT satellite, and 1 TPE
from Koreasat 75 BT.
Besides operating the satellite, we also provides 161 link of IP backhaul links for ourselves network or as well as
322 earth station with around 1.36 Gbps capacity. Transponder capacity for this link mostly through lease
transponder capacity from Foreign.
To maintain the continuity and developing of this business, we have entered into a contract for the construction of
Telkom-3S satelite and are preparing for the procurement of Telkom-4 as a replacement for Telkom-1. Telkom-3S
has a 49 TPE capacity that consists of 24 TPE standard C-band, 12 TPE Extended C-band and 13 TPE Ku-Band.
Meanwhile, Telkom-4 as a replacement for Telkom-1 with the development of coverage to India has a capacity of
60 TPE which consists of 24 TPE standard C-band with coverage of Indonesia, 24 TPE standard C-band with
India coverage and 12 TPE extended C-band with coverage of Indonesia. Telkom-3S which is currently under
construction is planned to be rolled at the end of 2016, while Telkom-4 is planned to be rolled at the end of 2017.
In line with the construction of Telkom-3S and Telkom-4, we are currently planning the placement of Telkom-2 RFS
post Telkom-3S and Telkom-1 RFS post Telkom-4. The placement of these two satellites, then in 2018, we will
operate four satellites with a total capacity of 169 TPE.
To increase the value, we formulate one door policy in the provision of capacity for Telkom Group. In order to
implementate this policy, we are currently exploring the patterns of of cooperation with operators include cooperation
in providing capacity through long-term leases, joint development of a satellite in the orbit slot which covers
Indonesia and acquisition of satellites in the orbit.
