With the introduction of the brand new Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) Sungai Buloh-Kajang (SBK) line across the Klang Valley, Digi took it upon themselves to give the public its newly activated 900MHz spectrum. This provides mobile phone signals to reach outwards to offer wider coverage, especially to rural areas.

This goes together with the SBK line as most of its journey is done underground so Digi users will prosper from the new 900MHz spectrum. The lower spectrum provides customers with better indoor coverage as it penetrates walls at a lower frequency. “We listen to what our customers want and indoor coverage is an area for improvement. With the 900MHz spectrum, we are confident of serving our customers better whether they are in the comfort of their living rooms or at work in office buildings,” said Kesavan Sivabalan, Digi’s Chief Technology Officer.

“With our current infrastructure in place, we are looking towards bringing more freedom to our customers so they can enjoy a more comprehensive range of digital offerings that will give them a new sense of freedom on the Internet,” added Loh Keh Jiat, Digi’s Chief Marketing Officer.

Thanks to the new 900MHz spectrum, Digi users can now experience high-speed 4G network coverage underground, making it that much easier to stream videos and scrolling through Facebook and Instagram. Digi has also introduced advanced network Wi-Fi calling for all of its users through iOS devices. For Android users, fret not as it will be coming to you soon!
