The Infracell Group of Companies is an international family of business enterprises specializing in wireless telecommunications, information technology and, most recently, power & energy. Now in its 18th year, the group has its origins in Indonesia, which remains the centre of its corporate operations and the home of its flagship P.T. Infracell Nusatama.

The In-Building Services Division (IBS) of P.T. Infracell Nusatama is a turnkey supplier of in-building wireless distribution networks. With considerable expertise in the RF design, site acquisition, installation, integration and commissioning of in-building systems, both active and passive, IBS has thus far completed over 300 such deployments on behalf of in network operators in Indonesia. As a complete end-to-end offering, IBS’s scope of work typically includes: Demographic analysis Existing frequency and signal analysis Business case study (if required) RF Design (including detail design) Site Acquisition (SITAC) & permitting Equipment implementation and VSWR testing Walk testing and commissioning Material procurement & supply (CME & shelter) On-site equipment support Project management Post-installation report & documentation Post-installation maintenance/support Equipped with the latest planning tools, IBS also provides technical support to Cascadiant’s various operations around the world engaged with their own in-building deployments – for example, to Cascadiant US (formerly Infracell Inc.) on the recent wireless coverage upgrade at the Houston International Airport. P.T. In-Building Connect Solutions (IBCS). A separate joint-venture between P.T. Infracell Nusatama and the Udinda Group, IBCS was the original pioneer in Indonesia back in 2002 of the concept of a managed in-building platform for multiple operators – basically a Build-Own-Operate model featuring a common, shared in-building distribution sub-network (either ‘active’ or ‘passive’). The right of access is, in turn, leased to individual operators, who thus avoid the significant CAPEX undertaking of a proprietary in-building distribution sub-network deployment; while at the same time deferring all SITAC costs and other related operational matters to the sub-network owner, IBCS. The company currently owns and operates 40 such in-building sub-networks in Jakarta. Moreover, a testament to IBCS’s vision and success in this area is the number of ‘copy-cat’ providers that have since sprung up across Indonesia!
