In providing metro connectivity services, Telkom and Indosat are accompanied by other players. Although they have still a dominant market share, several ISPs and new entrants have entered this market in several cities, especially providing metro IP-based services.
Traditional fixed-line (telephone) access infrastructures are still (almost 100%) owned and operated by Telkom. Other operators including Indosat prioritized development in wireless fixed lines, which obviously need smaller capital investments.
In terms of the number of players, wireless access infrastructures (including cellular and Internet hotspot) are the most prominent market. Telkomsel, Indosat and Excelcomindo are the dominant players. But Telkom (Flexi), BTel, Mobile-8 and several ISPs have still a quite significant number of customers.
Infrastructures for broadcast distributions have emerged since more than 10 years ago. The dominant player in this segment is Media Citra Indostar (Indovision), which owns and operates the Cakrawarta satellite. Terrestrial cable distribution networks are also built by some local providers. Such networks are currently also being used for offering Internet services.
