In 2011, we strengthened our NGN infrastructure in line with the INSYNC2014 Master Plan to create a Next Generation National Backbone Network to support our “Broadband for Digital Home”, “Broadband for Enterprise” and “Broadband
Anywhere” services. Key developments in our ixed line network development during 2011 were as follows:
Project Description
Java-Sumatra-Kalimantan Jasuka Project
We continued to expand the capacity of our Jasuka submarine infrastructure backbone to support domestic and international internet. This project also expanded Telkomsel’s capacity.
During 2011, 15 lambda 150Gb of additional capacity was installed for Ring 3, 4 lambda 40Gb for Ring 1A, and 2 lambda 20Gb for Ring 2.
Mataram-Kupang Palapa Ring Project
The procurement and installation contract for the Palapa Ring Mataram-Kupang submarine cable system was signed on November 24, 2009. We completed the development of the
submarine transport backbone from Mataram to Kupang in November 2011, providing an initial capacity of 40Gb. This will provide a network link between Mataram and Kupang,
connecting the islands of Lombok, Sumbawa, Sumba, Flores and Timor. The project has continued to develop a terrestrial cable transport backbone from Kupang to Atambua, which
is scheduled for completion in May 2012.
Development and Modernization of Broadband
Access through the Trade In Trade Of “TITO” Model
In order to develop high capacity broadband access, in 2011 we initiated the Development and Modernization of Broadband Access Program through the TITO Trade In Trade Of
model. The TITO program replaces our existing copper cables with iber optic cables and modern technologies such as MSAN, GPON, and FTTx. We are collaborating with PT INTI and
PT Len on this program. To date, we have successfully migrated, through the TITO program, 64,352 phone connections of existing customers out of a total installed capacity of 386,598
phone lines, and the remainder will be completed in March 2012. In 2012 we will continue the TITO program by installing 41 exchanges with PT INTI and 25 exchanges with a second
partner, with a total capacity of 2.27 million phone connections.
Broadband Access Expansion through the MSAN Platform
We expanded our MSAN broadband network platform to a total of 313,893 ixed line connections in 2009 and 299,936 connection in 2010. We now have three MSAN platforms
providing nationwide coverage. In 2011, the MSAN broadband platform project completed a total of 496,664 SST.
Gigabyte-Passive Optical Network “GPON”
Development Project In 2011, we expanded our GPON to a total of 40,735 Optical Network Terminals “ONT”, some
of which supported node B and Fiber To The Home “FTTH” deployment. In 2012, we plan to continue the expansion of our broadband access infrastructure, prioritizing the utilization of
GPON technology to expand the implementation of the FTTH network. IMS IP Multimedia
Subsystem Development IMS development is part of our infrastructure transformation, aimed at modernizing our
service nodes by providing IP capability, convergence and enabling new application-based services, which will eventually integrate new customers and migration customers. In 2011, we
developed infrastructure on a lab scale as a demonstration as well as a service innovation. In 2012 we plan to commercialize this system which will be done on August.
Tarakan Sangata Cable System “TSCS” Project,
Sumatra Bangka Cable System “SBCS”
In 2011, to add capacity and establish a high-reliability transport backbone, we began the installation of submarine transport backbone in Sumatra-Bangka and Tarakan-Sangata. The
TSCS and SBCS projects are currently in the development phase, which will be completed at the end of 2012.
Telkom-3 Satellite Project To defend our market share and grow our revenue from the satellite market, we are
currently constructing the Telkom-3 Satellite, which will have 42 active transponders, which is equivalent to 49 transponders with BW 36MHz, with a geographical coverage that
extends to Indonesia and ASEAN Standard C-Band, Indonesia and Malaysia Ext. C-Band and Indonesia Ku-Band. The Telkom-3 Satellite will be launched in mid-2012.
Regional DWDM Project To meet the growing domestic internet demand in the regional metro segment, in 2011 we
installed a total of 22 DWDM transport nodes at the regional metro level in Java. The regional DWDM Project will be completed by the end of 2012.
Implementation of the Telkom Cache System
We initiated the development of our cache system on our internet network to increase the eiciency of international internet bandwidth utilization and to upgrade the performance
quality of our internet services. This development is scheduled for completion in April 2012.
PT Telkom Indonesia, Tbk. 2011 Annual Report Moving Forward Beyond Telecommunications
To further consolidate our TIME services, we plan to: 1. Continue to implement and transform our networks in support of our three visions for broadband implementation:
home digital environment, enterprise broadband and broadband anywhere; 2. Continue to enhance the capability of the full IP transport network through the following programs: increasing domestic
and international internet bandwidth, expanding the Terra IP backbone, expanding IP over Lambda based on 10Gb, 40Gb and eventually 100Gb per lambda, enhancing synergies within the Telkom Group in support of converged and
single transport, continuing the development of Metro Ethernet which functions as a single transport metro network to provide IP-based and multiplay services, continuing the implementation of FTTH and GPON, and continuing the
migration of our existing copper cables through the trade-intrade-of mechanism; 3. Implement smart core through the converged service IMS program-based platform, implement an integrated
customer proile database, and implement service delivery platform for service brokerage and orchestration; 4. Expand broadband access coverage to enterprise and residential customers through a range of programs, including
Managed Enterprise Services, Managed Smart Customer Premises Equipment “CPE”, Home Automation, Surveillance, and Home Interconnect.
