MANILA, Philippines — Fiber internet service provider Converge ICT has tapped US-based technology firm CommScope to deliver high speed connectivity across the country.
Converge ICT and CommScope are teaming up to build an internet backbone which will connect the unserved and underserved market and communities in the country.
Converge ICT said it would expand its network coverage in rural and urban areas to address demand as the country undergoes a nationwide shift toward remote working and e-commerce
activity.
The company said CommScope would support its expansion by contributing its network design, deployment and project management expertise.
“The unprecedented demand for connectivity has moved to the top of the agenda when it comes to growing the Philippines’ economy. Converge ICT’s ambition is to provide super-fast reliable connections, while overcoming the disparities in fiber rollouts that have excluded the benefits of the internet from some of our nation’s communities,” Converge ICT founder and CEO Dennis Anthony Uy said.
“Copper cannot support the seismic transformational changes we expect in the future, making it critical to build out fiber networks strategically, quickly, cost-effectively, and at scale. CommScope’s team is dedicated to ensuring the largest, most ambitious network transformations go off without a hitch,” he said.
CommScope is a global leader in infrastructure solutions for communications networks, creating advanced wired and wireless networks.
With its expansion plans, Converge ICT said speed of deployment and shortage of skilled labor continue to be a challenge around large fiber connectivity deployments.
CommScope’s plug-and-play fiber products, however, are expected to reduce installation time by eliminating fiber splicing requirements to increase the speed of deployment.
Converge ICT will also tap into CommScope’s optical distribution network innovation to address the constantly changing needs of the fiber to the home network.
“It’s incredibly rewarding to partner with a visionary company like Converge ICT which is dedicated to enabling businesses and underserved communities to reap the rewards of next generation fiber connectivity,” CommScope senior vice president of service providers for Asia Pacific Alper Turken said.
“As emerging markets like the Philippines invigorate broadband with investment in digital infrastructure, it will be critical to build networks that meet that demand,“ Turken said.
