What Communication Cable Systems Indonesia does

PT Communication Cable Systems Indonesia Tbk (CCSI) is an Indonesian public company and fiber optic cable manufacturer founded in October 1996, originally as PT Siemens Kabel Optik, subsequently under Corning Inc, and currently majority-owned by CCS International. CCSI operates a 1,600,000 km annual fiber optic cable production facility at the Krakatau Industrial Estate in Cilegon, Banten, complemented by a Sales & Marketing Office in Jakarta. The company is the only submarine fiber optic cable manufacturer in Indonesia, producing Light Weight (depths to 5000m), Single Armor (1500m), Double Armor (600m), and Rock Armor (600m) submarine cable variants alongside outdoor aerial, direct buried, duct, ADSS, FTTH indoor, and special-purpose flame-retardant and fire-resistant cables. CCSI also manufactures HDPE subducts, microducts, gas pipes (MDPE PE-80), water pipes (HDPE PE-100), FASTPipe Reinforced Thermoplastic Pipe (RTP) for oil & gas, and proprietary MPJC and NSJC submarine joint closures.

The company generates revenue across seven streams: fiber optic cable hardware sales, EPC and installation services (inland, shore end, marine), restoration and maintenance services, training services, in-house quality testing services, dark fiber lease and IRU contracts on the Jalapati submarine cable network connecting Java and Bali, and HDPE pipe sales. Its GTM motion is direct enterprise field sales targeting Indonesian telecommunications operators (TELKOM as the anchor reference customer), oil & gas operators, utilities, rail operators, and ISPs through specification-driven, custom-engineered procurement. CCSI holds UQJ consortium certifications for submarine cables, TELKOM SERT RISTI product certifications, TUV product certifications, and ISO 9001/14001/45001 certifications valid 2025-2028, and maintains a long-standing technology and supply partnership with Corning, the world's largest optical fiber supplier.

Following its 2019 IPO on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (ticker: CCSI:IJ), CCSI has pursued ongoing capital raises via rights issues (2024 and 2026) and signed a 2024 MoU with Matrix NAP Info and Mitsui & Co to develop inter-island submarine cable communication system (SKKL) infrastructure in Indonesia. Major shareholders include PT Grahatama Kreasi Baru (35.30%) and PT Saptadaya Bumutana Persada (18.35%), with the remaining shares publicly held. The company distributes exclusively within Indonesia and serves its customers from a vertically integrated model spanning cable manufacturing through installation, maintenance, and testing.

Scale indicators6 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights2 records

Emerging players

• LS Cable & System: Korean cable manufacturer with submarine and fiber optic cable offerings, strong in Asia-Pacific markets. Comparable in submarine cable and FTTH portfolio; regional competitor for Indonesian telecom projects.
• ZTT Group: Chinese manufacturer of optical fiber, fiber optic cable, and submarine cable with growing Asia-Pacific presence. Comparable product portfolio and competes on cost for Southeast Asian telecom infrastructure projects.
• Hengtong Group: Chinese fiber optic cable and submarine cable manufacturer with rapidly expanding international footprint. Competes globally on price and increasingly targets Southeast Asian telecom and submarine projects, directly threatening CCSI's domestic-only positioning.
• Fujikura / AFL: Fujikura (Japan) and its subsidiary AFL specialize in fiber optic cable and connectivity products, including FTTH and specialty cables. Comparable in fiber optic cable product line and technology focus.

Direct peers

• Furukawa Electric: Japanese manufacturer of optical fiber, fiber optic cables, and submarine cables. Highly comparable product portfolio (submarine, FTTH, specialty cables) and competing directly for Indonesian telecom and SKKL projects.
• PT Voksel Electric: Indonesian-listed cable manufacturer producing power and telecommunications cables. Direct local peer competing for the same Indonesian telecom, utilities, and project-based customers, though without submarine cable capability.
• Sumitomo Electric Industries: Japanese cable and fiber optic manufacturer with submarine cable capability and a strong presence across Asia. Direct comparable on submarine cable product line and Asian telecom customer base.

Broad incumbents

• Prysmian Group: World's largest cable manufacturer, producing fiber optic, submarine, and power cables globally. Direct overlap with CCSI in submarine and telecom fiber optic cables; competes with CCSI in Indonesia via import and project bids while operating at vastly greater scale.
• Corning Incorporated: World's largest optical fiber supplier and CCSI's former owner/long-standing partner. While primarily an upstream fiber supplier, Corning also produces cable assemblies and is a benchmark for optical fiber performance — simultaneously a partner, supplier, and potential competitor.
• Nexans: French global cable manufacturer with submarine cable capability through its submarine telecom subsidiary. Comparable in submarine and telecom fiber optic cable product lines; broad incumbent across multiple cable categories.
