SWEDEN

3G Infrastructure Services AB, operating in Sweden (Europe) under Mobile Country Code (MCC) 240 and Mobile Network Code (MNC) 4, represents a significant, albeit now historical, player in the Swedish mobile landscape. While 3G technology has largely been superseded by 4G and 5G, understanding the role of 3G Infrastructure Services AB provides valuable context to the evolution of mobile telecommunications within Sweden. Established to deliver and maintain 3G network infrastructure at a time when Ericsson and other telecommunications companies were rolling out their 3G services, 3G Infrastructure Services focused on robust network coverage and reliable data transfer for early adopters of mobile internet in Sweden. Compared to networks like Telia, Tele2 and Telenor, the presence and function of 3G Infrastructure Services AB was unique, as it was primarily focused on supporting other mobile network operators to deliver 3G network services. Though not as prominent in the public eye as consumer-facing brands, their contribution to Sweden's early adoption of 3G technology was vital, facilitating increased connectivity, especially in regions outside of major cities like Stockholm or Gothenburg within Vastra Gotaland County. Although the initial rollout of 3G in Sweden faced challenges related to coverage and cost, 3G Infrastructure Services AB played a crucial role in expanding and improving network availability especially at a time when it enabled the mobile internet for enterprise customers, so helping the business community embrace mobile technology for the first time.
