CSL, SK Telecom Do 4G Roaming

HONG KONG -- CSL Limited, the leading mobile provider in Hong Kong, and SK Telecom, the largest mobile operator in Korea, have launched the world’s first 4G LTE international roaming between two markets – Hong Kong and Korea. International travellers can now seamlessly roam between the two regions and enjoy a consistent 4G experience, enabling efficient multi-tasking and rich content data applications.

CSL, the first operator in Hong Kong to launch a 4G LTE network in November 2010, continues to lead the Hong Kong market in 4G connections. SK Telecom launched an LTE service in Korea in July 2011, achieved nationwide coverage in April 2012, and has acquired over 2.7 million LTE customers as of May 2012. The partnership is ideal as both operators possess the advanced 4G technology and large customer base needed to maximise the potential of each country’s high mobile data usage.
