Aicent, a leading provider of IP eXchange (IPX) and LTE Roaming services for global mobile operators, and SK Telecom, Korea’s No.1 telecommunications service provider, have teamed to offer SK Telecom’s mobile subscribers a seamless and consistent LTE roaming experience as they travel between South Korea and Singapore. Aicent’s LTE Roaming Exchange – supported by Aicent’s global IPX network with extensive Diameter Routing Platforms located in NA, Europe, and Asia – gives SK Telecom immediate access to global 4G voice and data roaming with high availability and low latency.

“SK Telecom has fully embraced LTE as the next generation of mobile services for our quickly expanding subscriber base.
