Location Area Code

The location area code (LAC) in the UK telecom market is a unique identifier assigned to a specific geographic area within the country. It helps mobile network operators to track and manage mobile devices as they move between different locations. By using LAC, operators can efficiently route calls, manage network traffic, and provide location-based services to their customers. Each LAC corresponds to a particular area, such as a city or a town, and is an essential component of the mobile network infrastructure in the UK.
