Maxis Fibre at Uni Capital / Uni Square

Coverage check, rental installation guide & wiring tips for older blocks (2026)

This page covers the major student apartment clusters: Uni Capital, Uni Square, and Uni Media. These older, high-density blocks are the backbone of UNIMAS off-campus housing. Fibre coverage is excellent, but unit wiring varies by block age.

✅ These apartments are dense. If the checker shows "Port Full", do not give up. Contact us immediately—we can often detect a spare port or request a new slot for students.

The layout and wiring differ slightly between these phases. Select your area:

Bill Sharing: The 300Mbps plan is the most popular choice here, usually split between 4-5 housemates for roughly RM25/month per person.

What to prepare (Student Rentals)

Avoid installation failures by checking these first:

  • Old Wiring Check Some older Uni Capital units have damaged internal phone sockets. The installer may need to drill a small hole to bring new fibre cable in. Ensure landlord agrees.
  • Keys to Grill If your unit has a locked grill at the corridor, make sure you have the key. Installers need to access the riser outside your door.
  • Housemate Agreement Decide who will be the "Owner" of the account. That person needs to provide their IC/Passport.
  • Extension Cord Old units have few power plugs. Have a reliable extension cord ready near the TV area for the router and modem.

Installation Flow (Uni Area)

Getting connected for the semester:

  • 1) Check coverage online Confirm your specific block letter (e.g., Block H, Block K).
  • 2) Book Appointment We schedule the team. Slots fill up fast during semester intake weeks.
  • 3) Cable Routing Installer pulls cable from the corridor ceiling/riser into your unit.
  • 4) Activation System goes live. Connect all laptops and phones immediately.

Uni Capital Checklist

Older blocks, usually 3-4 storeys walk-up.

  • Riser Access Riser boxes are often on the ground floor or stairwells. Ensure no bikes/shoes are blocking access.

Uni Square Checklist

  • Address Accuracy Uni Square addresses can be tricky. Use the exact address from your electricity bill to avoid "Address Not Found" errors.

FAQ (Samarahan Students)

Can international students apply?
Yes. You need your Passport. A deposit of RM500 is typically required for non-Malaysians (refundable when you terminate the contract).
What if I change apartments next semester?
Maxis Fibre allows relocation. If you move from Uni Capital to Summer Suites, you can bring your account with you (subject to coverage).
Is 100Mbps enough for 5 students?
It might be tight if everyone streams video at the same time. We recommend **300Mbps** for shared student houses to prevent lag during assignment submission times.
Can I install without the landlord present?
Yes, as long as the landlord has given permission (via WhatsApp/Call), you can oversee the installation yourself.

If you’re unsure about your unit, check coverage by exact address before scheduling installation.
