Singtel, Micron to deploy commercial 5G millimetre wave solution

This is the first for Singapore and the semiconductor sector.

Singtel has been appointed by Micron Technology to deploy its 5G millimetre wave (mmWave) solutions to semiconductor manufacturer 3D NAND flash memory fabrication plant in Singapore.

This is the first, not only in the Lion City, but also for the semiconductor manufacturing sector as a whole.

It will be deployed at Micron's cleanroom to support the development of digitally enabled and enhanced applications.

This follows successful trials of Singtel's 5G-in-a-box platform GENIE, which helped validate the mmWave solution.

“This industry-first deployment proves that 5G networks can be used for high-precision quality control and manufacturing operations which previously was not possible with the limitations of Wi-Fi. Additionally, the implementation is a significant milestone in Singtel’s journey to accelerate enterprise 5G adoption and will serve as a case study to inspire other 5G-enabled manufacturing sites around the world,” said Singtel CEO for Group Enterprise Bill Chang in a press statement.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
