Innovating Wireless for the Enterprise and the Individual

Headquartered in Tokyo, Japan Communications Inc. (JCI) is Japan's premier provider of mobile data and voice communications services for corporations, professionals and individuals. The world's first Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO), JCI specializes in value-added mobile services that go beyond what wireless carriers will do:

  • We offer the widest coverage and broadest range of service options
  • We provide total end-to-end solutions and support
  • We customize our services to fit the needs of your business
  • We make mobile communications easy

Unmatched Coverage over Multiple Networks

Mobile users demand easy connectivity whenever and wherever they are. That's why JCI offers the widest mobile coverage in Japan across multiple network types. In August, 2008, JCI became the world's first interconnected 3G Data MVNO through interconnection to NTT docomo's nationwide FOMA 3G mobile data network. JCI is unique as an MVNO as we can select our own mobile devices and connect them to our network without pre-approval from the mobile carrier. We use this to provide our customers with the most cutting-edge, advanced mobile technology available in the world.

We also provide service over the nationwide WILLCOM PHS network, and over Japan's most comprehensive network of public wireless LAN spots through our partnerships with Japan's major WiFi carriers. But our coverage does not end at the border. In the US, JCI offers wireless data services over US Cellular's CDMA mobile wireless network, targeting machine-to-machine applications such as wireless back-up lines of Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) at banks. Look for even more service options and greater coverages as JCI continues to focus on the needs of mobile professionals and consumers.

MVNE Services

JCI is not just the world's first interconnected 3G Data MVNO, but also the world's most experienced Mobile Virtual Network Enabler (MVNE). We apply our rich experiences of being the pioneer MVNO to our MVNE services. We actively engage with our business partners to enhance their core products and services with mobile wireless capabilities. Our partners can define their own wireless data pricing and integrate mobile wireless features into their unique offerings. We have transformed the cost of wireless data transmission from an unknown blackhole to a well-defined, easily understood solution, bringing true value for the partner business to grow.

Total End-to-End Customized Solutions

For Enterprise customers, JCI offers InfinityCare3G ("ICare3G"). This is a one-stop service combining our core five areas of expertise: (1) wireless handhelds and modules, (2) wireless mobile network connectivity, (3) device and user authentication, (4) secure end-to-end connectivity from the device through to the Corporate Intranet, and (5) Network Management and Customer Care centers operating 24/7 with full time staffs in both Japan and the US.

At JCI, we know that no two businesses are the same and that no two companies have the same wireless data requirements. Our bandwidth-based interconnection tariff with docomo gives us the flexibility to tailor our pricing to meet each customer's specific needs and to develop specific pricing plans for specific devices. We do not use the "one-size fits all" approach that is common to the industry. At JCI, we listen to customer's needs and tailor our services and our pricing to fit their demands. No other network operator meets as wide a range of customer requirements as JCI..
