PLDT Home is set to elevate customers’ fiber experience with the launch in March of the fastest broadband plans in the Philippines – Gigabit Fiber plans.
Gigabit Fiber Plans: Speeds of up to 10 Gbps
Offering Internet speeds up to 10,000 megabits or 10 gigabits per second, these plans bundle premium video content, top-notch devices, exclusive perks and rewards, and total internet security from Kaspersky.
“The Gigabit Fiber plans will initially allow a select group of customers to experience first-world level
connectivity. But that will soon change with PLDT’s investment in new technology and network
upgrade. PLDT is pushing the boundaries of innovation in the Philippines to accelerate the country’s digital
transformation and quickly bridge the digital gap among customers, particularly large enterprises and
start-up ventures.”
– Jeremiah de la Cruz, PLDT senior vice president and head of customer business and PLDT Home
With speeds rivaling technologically advanced countries, the Gigabit plans range from 1 Gbps to 10 Gbps.
“PLDT will roll out XGS-PON to facilitate ultrafast Gigabit Fiber plans so that every Filipino home could experience first-world Internet access,” added de la Cruz.
This updated standard for Passive Optical Networks enables symmetrical 10 Gbps data transfers over fiber lines. At such speeds, even a 20GB 4K video could be downloaded in seconds. As PLDT expands its network and invests further, de la Cruz expects the costs of ultrafast broadband to decrease, making lightning-fast internet more accessible across the market.
Gigabit Plans offer speeds of 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps and 10 Gbps.
With a 10 Gbps connection, you can enjoy high-speed internet on multiple devices at the same time. Whether you are streaming videos, video conferencing in high resolution, gaming without lag, or remotely accessing and storing video files, a 10 Gbps connection should be more than enought to handle it all.
