Manila - In accordance with the company's dedication to enhance
its web services, Globe Telecom recently rolled out in 150 sites the 700
megahertz (MHz) band. Most of the 150 sites are in Metro Manila.
The company said it is fast-tracking the roll-out of LTE (Long
Term Evolution) services across the country utilizing the 700 MHz frequency.
Joel Agustin, Globe Telecom senior vice president for Program
Governance, Network Technical Group, said, “We are confident that more and more
of our customers will experience improved services as adoption of LTE-capable
devices increases and as we continue to deploy LTE 700 in more sites. This is
consistent with our strategy of continuously improving internet services using
the previously idle 700 MHz spectrum that the National Telecommunications
Commission (NTC) now allows us to co-use.”
The LTE 700 sites cover major business districts and exceptionally
urbanized, populated areas in the country, he explained.
Agustin also highlighted that customers utilizing LTE 700 gadgets
are consistently increasing in these areas.
He included that in Quezon City, for instance, the technology now
covers a majority portion of the city after the LTE 700 sites activated by
Globe Telecom expanded four times from the initial roll-out of 11 sites.
In the meantime, Globe Telecom said it plans to initiate more than
500 LTE 700 sites across the country before the end of 2016.
As stated by Agustin, larger part of these sites will be situated
in Metro Manila, empowering the company to convey close to 100 percent coverage
of LTE 700 for the whole metropolitan area.
“This, in turn, is expected
to substantially improve mobile internet experience of customers in the
region,” he said.
The company also said it is
maximizing the utilization of the 700 MHz band in dedication in the co-use
agreement with BellTel, taking after the sellout of SanMiguel's telco assets.
Globe Telecom committed to deploy around 4,500 multiband,
multimode software defined radio base station equipment to 95 percent of total
municipalities and urban communities in the country.
The company is convinced that this will enhance overall customer
experience in terms of speed and reliability of mobile services. Send topup load to the Philippines with
