The segment covers the following:

  • Calatrava, Tablas Island, Romblon
  • Roxas City, Capiz
  • Placer, Masbate
  • Palompon, Leyte
  • Mactan, Cebu
  • Talisay City, Cebu
  • Tagbilaran City, Bohol
  • Cagayan de Oro City, Misamis Oriental

The activation of the PDSCN Express Route marks another milestone in our journey towards providing inclusive connectivity across the archipelago, especially in underserved and unserved areas. It will also enhance the reliability and resilience of our network given the country’s vulnerability to disasters and calamities, said Joel Agustin, Globe SVP and Head of Network Planning and Engineering.

PDSCN, Globe's fourth domestic submarine backbone, will help boost connectivity to improve customer experience for both household and business clients.

The official also shared that the group has also finished 90 percent of cable landing stations across the country under the USD 150-million subsea cable project.

Completion is eyed within 2024, he added.

According to Globe, Cable landing stations are crucial landing points for undersea fiber-optic cables, which transmit vast amounts of internet data across oceans.

Our focus now is connecting our inland facilities, Agustin added.
