Globe fired up 380 new 5G sites in Q1 2022

Globe has announced that it is ramping up its rollout of 5G sites in areas not reached by fixed internet or broadband to further improve the Digital Quality of Life (DQL) in the Philippines.

This was shared by Rina Azcuna-Siongco, Head of Get Entertained Tribe at Globe during the OTT (Over the Top) Summit 2022 organized by the Asia Video Industry Association (AVIA). Speaking on the topic “How will 5G Change the Game for Asian Streaming Services?” she said the deployment of 5G technology complements Globe’s broadband rollout to deliver #1stWorldNetwork to customers.

“One of the ways we’ve used 5G is for areas where it’s a bit more challenging to deploy fixed internet or broadband. We need to do it through 5G instead. That way, we are able to deliver things like better video streaming and gaming experiences,” Siongco said.

In the first quarter of 2022, Globe has fired up 380 new 5G sites to augment outdoor and in-building solutions in Metro Manila, Rizal, Cavite, Batangas, Bulacan, Davao, Cebu, Misamis Oriental, and Iloilo.

Globe’s 5G network now covers 95% of the National Capital Region’s (NCR) population and 84% in Visayas and Mindanao. Globe is also doubling its efforts to roll out more 5G cell sites and in-building solutions this year to reach more areas.
