!!! Overview[1]
[{$pagename}] ([MCC]) specified in [ITU-T] [E.212] and is a [Country Code] and used in combination with a [Mobile Network Code] ([MNC]) to uniquely identify a [Mobile Network Operator] using the [GSM] (including GSM-R), [UMTS], and [LTE] public land [Mobile Networks].
[{$pagename}] is part of the [International Mobile Subscriber Identity]
Some but not all [CDMA], [iDEN], and satellite mobile networks are identified with an [MCC]/[MNC] tuple as well.
* [WiMAX] networks, a globally unique Broadband Operator ID can be derived from the [MCC]/[MNC] tuple.
* [TETRA] networks use the mobile [Country Code] from [ITU-T] Recommendation [E.212] together with a 10-bit binary mobile network code. However, a TETRA network may be assigned an [E.212] network code as well.
[Mobile Virtual Network Operator] ([MVNO]) are [Mobile Network Operators] that do NOT have their own radio access network at all. These [MVNOs] without their own [MCC]/[MNC] (that is, they share the MCC/MNC of their host network) are not listed here.
The [ITU-T] Recommendation [E.212] defines [{$pagename}] as well as [Mobile Network Codes].
[{$pagename}] consists of 3 decimal digits and the [Mobile Network Codes] consists of 2 or 3 decimal digits (for example: MNC of 001 is not the same as MNC of 01).
The first digit of the mobile country code identifies the geographic region as follows (the digits 1 and 8 are __NOT__ used):
* 0 - Test networks
* 2 - [Europe]
* 3 - [North America] and the Caribbean
* 4 - [Asia] and the [Middle East]
* 5 - [Australia]/[Oceania]
* 6 - [Africa]
* 7 - [South America]
* 9 - World-wide (Satellite, Air - aboard aircraft, Maritime - aboard ships, Antarctica)
