Network Description

PCCW Mobile 2G in Hong Kong operates under the Mobile Country Code (MCC) 454, which identifies Hong Kong, and the Mobile Network Code (MNC) 16. This combination uniquely identifies PCCW Mobile's 2G network within the Asia & Middle East region. Although 2G technology is now considered legacy, it provided initial mobile communication infrastructure for the Hong Kong population, allowing basic voice and text services. In comparison to newer technologies like 4G and 5G adopted by PCCW Mobile and other Hong Kong providers, 2G offers less bandwidth but was crucial for establishing connectivity.

The presence of PCCW Mobile's 2G network reflects the historical progression of mobile technology in Hong Kong. While networks like CSL and SmarTone have heavily invested in advanced mobile infrastructure, PCCW's 2G network served as an essential stepping stone. It's a reminder of how mobile communication developed across Hong Kong, particularly during a period when the market was rapidly growing. Although data capabilities are limited, the 2G network played a key role in expanding mobile access across the region.
