SWN model, equity participation create win-win situation to resolve 5G rollout

KUALA LUMPUR: The government's decision to maintain the implementation of the 5G network as a single wholesale network (SWN) with the option for mobile network operators (MNOs) to buy an up to 70 per cent stake in Digital Nasional Bhd (DNB) is a win-win situation to resolve the issues in the 5G rollout, Public Investment Bank Bhd said.

In a research note today, it said this is seen as a midpoint between the SWN and the Dual Wholesale Network (DWN) model which the MNOs were proposing.
