Converge deploys nearly 5.5M ports, covering PH with pure fiber

Converge ICT Solutions Inc. has announced that it has deployed nearly 5.5 million ports at the end of October 2021, covering the whole country with pure fiber connectivity.

The port deployment supports the fiber broadband operator’s goal of reaching more unserved and underserved areas in the Philippines and accelerating its target of covering 55% of households with high-speed fiber connectivity by two years to 2023.

It now services over 440 municipalities and cities across the country, while its total number of residential subscribers reached nearly 1.6 million at the end of September 2021, almost double compared to the same period last year.

“We’ve achieved a record rollout of 654,188 ports in the third quarter of 2021 alone, a solid testament to the robust demand we continue to see throughout the country. In our new markets in Visayas and Mindanao, we’re glad to see a healthy uptake as 20% of the fiber rollouts were in these areas,” said Converge CEO and Co-Founder Dennis Anthony Uy.

Among the branches that recently opened to serve its growing customer base are located in Laoag City, Ilocos Norte; Candon, Ilocos Sur; La Trinidad, Benguet; Tuguegarao, Cagayan; and Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya in Northern Luzon; Gapan, Nueva Ecija in Central Luzon; Valenzuela and San Juan City in Metro Manila; Batangas City and Lemery, Batangas; and Imus and Dasmarinas, Cavite in Southern Luzon; Sorsogon in the Bicol Region; Iloilo City in the Visayas; and Cagayan de Oro and Davao City in Mindanao.
