14 novembre 2025Par LA REDACTION DE GS MAG

Nokia announced a multi-year partnership with leading Indonesian digital and telecommunications solutions provider, Surge, to enhance the country’s internet connectivity through an extensive 5G FWA network deployment in provinces including Java, Papua, and Maluku. The project will support the Indonesian government’s digital transformation goals and its ’Affordable Broadband’ initiative to bridge the digital divide by bringing connectivity to more citizens. Deployment will start in December 2025.

Nokia will support Surge’s efforts to build a large-scale 5G FWA network based on the n50 spectrum band to deliver high-speed, low-latency broadband access to its customers, leveraging Nokia’s existing FTTx, IP and Optics infrastructure for backhaul and transport. Nokia has developed a customized, RAN and CPE solution for Surge, specifically for FWA use cases, delivering high-speed, low-latency broadband access, particularly in areas with limited fiber connectivity.

Nokia will also supply equipment from its industry-leading, energy-efficient AirScale Radio Access Network (RAN) portfolio, its latest generation of Nokia AirScale Baseband combined with RRH (Remote Radio Head), and zero-footprint site solutions for unmatched coverage across multiple deployment scenarios. These solutions are powered by Nokia’s energy-efficient ReefShark System-on-Chip technology, boosting Surge’s network for maximum performance, efficiency, and reliability.

Surge will also benefit from Nokia’s intelligent network management system, MantaRay NM, which provides a consolidated network view for optimal monitoring and management. The deal also includes deployment, maintenance, and support services that leverage AI for enhancing performance, efficiency, and safety.
