Demanlink Deploys Sarawak's First Smart Pole and Built-to-Suit Tower, Boosting 5G Connectivity

Demanlink Connexion Sdn. Bhd., a Sarawak-based telecommunications infrastructure company, announced the successful deployment of two tailored connectivity solutions in Siburan and Bintulu. The company deployed Sarawak's first telecommunications smart pole in Siburan and its first built-to-suit (B2S) site in Kampung Jepak, Bintulu. Both solutions incorporate future-ready 5G equipment and aim to enhance connectivity coverage in the state's growing urban areas and transport networks.

Situated at Taman Impiana, Siburan, the smart pole delivers seamless 5G connectivity for residents and commuters. Its compact, multi-functional design supports 5G-ready equipment and enables co-location for multiple Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), optimizing infrastructure use and network coverage. The pole also functions as a lamp pole, improving visibility for drivers and pedestrians.

Demanlink's maiden B2S site in Kampung Jepak, Bintulu, will deliver network coverage for surrounding residential and commercial areas as well as a nearby transport network. The site is strategically located near six schools and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) centers, enabling students and educators to access digital learning platforms with high-speed connectivity. The tower is expected to strengthen mobile coverage along stretches of the Pan Borneo Highway, improving connectivity, navigation, and safety for users of this key transport corridor.

Hanad Yusuf, Chief Executive Officer of Demanlink, stated, "Technology is a powerful socioeconomic catalyst. These deployments are about more than coverage. They are about giving communities in Siburan and Bintulu the digital foundation to participate in Sarawak's growth. As the state works toward its 2030 digital economy ambitions, Demanlink's role is to make that infrastructure a reality, one community at a time."

Following these deployments, Demanlink continues to expand its footprint across Sarawak. The company recently completed an In-Building Coverage (IBC) deployment at One Shell Square Miri, bringing 5G connectivity to a key energy sector hub. Demanlink is also deploying several 5G IBC sites across Sarawak, growing its portfolio of macro sites, smart poles, and in-building solutions.
