#bayantel fiber

Globe is giving Bayantel subscribers a free upgrade to their fiber network. This offer encourages old or existing subscribers to move to the Globe network by giving them faster internet for the same broadband plan they're currently paying with Bayantel. In December 2012, Globe effectively took over the operations of BayanTel although they continue to service the existing customers using the old network. This promotion will hopefully help get subscribers to move from the old network into Globe's fiber network. Converge has just announced that its fiber network has now reached over 500,000 kilometers. In a report to the NTC, Converge has said that it has laid down over 523,000 kilometers of fiber nationwide, more than double from last year where they rolled out 260,000 kilometers of total fiber assets. The current fiber cable kilometers of the company consists of 403,740 kilometers of last-mile network ando ver 119,000 kilometers of fiber backbone which include its domestic subsea cable system. Converge was the first to deploy 400G data transmission capacity on its metro backbone which was further doubled to 800G, boosting the fiber network’s capacity to push huge amounts of data throughout the length of the cable, in anticipation of the use of next-generation, hyperscale capacity applications.
