About China Telecom

China Telecom, operating in China within the Asia & Middle East region, stands as a major mobile network provider. Identified by the Mobile Country Code (MCC) 460 and Mobile Network Code (MNC) 11, China Telecom plays a vital role in connecting millions across the country with its extensive network coverage. It rivals other significant players in the Chinese telecommunications landscape, such as China Mobile and China Unicom, offering a range of services including 4G and increasingly 5G connectivity to meet the demands of a rapidly evolving digital population. As one of the "big three" telecom operators in China, China Telecom has been instrumental in the country's rapid advancements in mobile technology. The network's development mirrors China's own journey to becoming a technological powerhouse. The MCC 460 is a key identifier for mobile networks operating within the People's Republic of China, and the specific MNC 11 pinpoints China Telecom amongst those networks. With ongoing infrastructure investments and service innovations, China Telecom strives to provide competitive mobile solutions and enhance the digital experience for its vast customer base.
