True completes 100% network integration; Boosts 5G capacity by 2x
True Corporation has officially announced the successful 100% completion of its landmark “One Network” project. This achievement marks the total integration of the True and dtac networks, creating a unified, high-performance digital infrastructure. The move solidifies True Corporation’s position as Thailand’s leading telecom provider, offering unprecedented signal strength, broader coverage, and a world-class mobile experience for millions of customers nationwide.
Sigve Brekke, Group Chief Executive Officer of True Corporation Plc., emphasized that the “One Network” project represents more than just a merger of towers.
“This is a full-scale network modernization. By integrating cutting-edge technologies and collaborating with global partners, we have built a digital foundation that not only supports current high-demand usage but is also future-ready. Our customers now benefit from a single, smarter network that ensures high-quality connectivity in every corner of Thailand.”
Strategic Success: Three Pillars of the One Network Experience
1. Exponential Growth in Network Capacity
To stay ahead of the “Live” era and data-heavy events like concerts and festivals, True Corporation has significantly bolstered its infrastructure:
Combined Capacity (4G/5G): Increased by 1.37 times nationwide.
5G Specific Capacity: Nearly doubled (2x) compared to pre-integration levels.
Impact: Faster speeds and smoother connectivity, even in ultra-congested areas with high user density.
2. Superior Coverage and Signal Quality
The integration has bridged the gap in coverage, particularly for former dtac users:
5G Population Coverage: Now reaches 94% of the Thai population (up from 47% for dtac in 2023).
4G Population Coverage: Stands at a near-total 99%.
Signal Quality Gains: Average signal quality improved by 76% nationwide. Top-performing provinces include Samut Sakhon (92.22%), Bangkok (84.22%), and Nakhon Ratchasima (83.59%).
3. Travel-Ready Connectivity for New Year 2026
As Thailand prepares for its peak travel season, True Corporation has optimized its network across all major tourist corridors and landmarks:
Nationwide Landmarks: High-speed coverage spans from the mountainous North (Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai) to the coastal South (Phuket, Phang Nga).
Global Countdown Venue: Special optimization for ICONSIAM, the Asia-Pacific broadcast hub for CNN’s New Year’s Eve coverage, ensuring residents and tourists can stream and share moments without interruption.
The Future is Smart
The completion of One Network signifies Thailand’s transition toward an intelligent network ecosystem. By utilizing AI and autonomous network management, True Corporation ensures that every digital interaction—whether for business, tourism, or personal connection—remains seamless and reliable in every situation.
