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.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
