ANGELES CITY-Converge ICT, the country’s fastest growing local fiber internet provider, has commission­ed an innovative and flexible high capacity backbone to give Filipino consumers and enterprise­s their most powerful connection yet.

The new 400G metro backbone utilizes industry-leading optical solutions from a United Statesbase­d networking systems, services, and software company, paving the way to support current and future requiremen­ts from a range of applicat i on s.

As demand for bandwidth increases, the 400G optical solution allows Converge ICT to be flexible and efficientl­y improve the capacity of its nationwide backbone to deliver a more seamless user exp er i en ce.

Leveraging ASON technology, the network is capable of automatica­lly routing traffic to multiple available paths during fiber breaks, a feature that traditiona­l DWDM technology cannot provide as it’s limited to switching of traffic from main path to only one protection path. This deployment gives Converge ICT a programmab­le, dynamic set up of connection­s that increases adaptabili­ty and resiliency, with the ability to prepare for easily scaling to higher capacity 800G wavelength­s to support future growth.

"This network expansion gives us the confidence that we can deliver on our commitment to foster simple, fast, and reliable connectivi­ty for both existing and potential customers,” Converge ICT Founder and Chief Executive Officer Dennis Anthony Uy said.

Converge ICT is a trailblaze­r in the Philippine­s that is forging a path toward digital transforma­tion for its customers and foster rapid growth, meet future demands and drive new levels of efficiency and performanc­e.
