Converge ICT Solutions, Inc. said that it will work
closely with the provincial government of Cavite to assure the early completion
of the installation of fiber-optic cables in the province.
The company signed recently a Memorandum of Agreement
(MOA) with Cavite to help provide the province with the benefits of pure-fiber
Internet connectivity.
Under the MOA, allows Converge ICT will lay more than
300 kilometers of fiber-optic cables in the province’s 7 cities and 16
municipalities. Once completed, the people of Cavite will enjoy Internet
connectivity that’s reliable, dependable, fast, and with absolutely no “data
cap!”
Cavite Governor Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla lauded
the partnership with Converge ICT. “We hope to start a digital revolution in
our province with this project. We all know that we have one of the slowest, if
not the slowest, Internet connections in the world. But that will end real soon
here in Cavite, and hopefully the Philippines, too, with this partnership with
Converge ICT,” declares Governor Remulla.
“After Metro Manila and other key cities, it is
Cavite’s turn to maximize the power of fiber-optic Internet. We certainly look
forward to digitalization of the province of Cavite and many others one step at
a time. We know it will take quite a while, but we will get there,” declares Dennis
Anthony Uy, Chief Executive Officer of Converge ICT Solutions, Inc.
After Cavite, Uy said they are already looking at
other provinces in the southern Tagalog region. Ultimately, Converge ICT will
reach other areas in the Philippines such as Visayas and Mindanao to let more
people enjoy the power and speed of pure fiber-optic Internet connectivity.
The installation has already started as we speak in
Cavite’s key cities such as Trece Martires, Bacoor and Imus with a minimum
speed of 25mbps.
“We’re optimistic about finishing the project early. We
have the benefit of modern-age equipment in laying fiber-optic cables on the
ground using ‘micro-trenching’ technology. We’ve proven its capability in the
National Capital Region and other areas so I know we can finish the project on time
and provide Cavite with faster-than –ever Internet connectivity,” he adds.
Uy expressed readiness to make Cavite a showcase of
the power of fiber optic technology that Converge ICT offers. “There’s nothing
that can beat fiber optic Internet at this time. It’s easy to install and most
of all, it’s now made affordable by Converge ICT.”
Converge ICT’s ground-breaking FiberX Internet plan is
offered in three different plan types for a variety of users depending on their
Internet usage. FiberX 1500 has a burstable speed of up to 25Mbps, FiberX 2500

Internet with better speed, larger bandwidth and consistent performance for
either work or play.
