Telkomsel

Telkomsel is the market leader in Indonesia with a 54

percent share in the country’s telecommunications

market. In order to maintain and build on this position,

Telkomsel needed to continue its successful strategy of

expanding coverage ahead of the competition.

Telkomsel, Indonesia, expands

coverage and capacity with a cost

and energy efficient solution

Ericsson supplies a third of the operator’s network and,

with a growing reputation in energy efficient network

expansion projects, was the perfect partner to support its

growth. By continuously expanding its coverage, Telkomsel

increases subscriber numbers and ensures its market

position, but the remote diesel powered sites traditionally

required to do this, take a lot of maintenance and this

can substantially increase OPEX. Ericsson offered a 100

percent solar-driven site which was easy to install and kept

maintenance costs to a minimum. Per-Henry Olsson, Vice

President, Telkomsel Account, Ericsson Indonesia, explains

how the project helps Telkomsel to realize its vision: “The

solar site is an energy efficient solution, which guarantees

low OPEX going forward, helping to maintain Telkomsel’s

strong position in the market.”

The entire site was delivered and installed by Ericsson,

including the radio base station, MINI-LINK™ and the

power solution. The main remote base station, the RBS

2111, is divided into two separate units. The main unit

connects to network transmission at ground level and the

remote radio unit sits at the top of the mast and contains

the radio hardware. The distributed architecture reduces

the total site costs and ensures fast and easy rollout.

The RBS 2111 makes it possible to produce a total site

solution which is power efficient enough to use with solar

equipment and 100 percent solar energy guarantees

“We have been concentrating on providing coverage for rural areas for some time. This solution enables us to continue this policy in regions outside the power grid, while keeping energy consumption to a minimum and OPEX at a manageable level.”Bona LP Parapat, Vice President, Radio, Network,

Telkomsel a virtually maintenance free site. This is the

first time that a combined solution of this kind has been

implemented and the trial period has shown it to be

incredibly efficient, using 60 percent less power compared

with ordinary macro base stations. This guarantees cost

efficiency as well as being good news for the environment.

The deployment has been a success and it is anticipated that

it could lower OPEX by up to 40 percent. Bona LP Parapat,

Vice President, Radio, Network, Engineering and

Implementation, Java and Bali, Telkomsel, Indonesia,

explains some of the key benefits: “We have been

policy in regions outside the power grid, while keeping

energy consumption to a minimum and OPEX at a
