Subic Telecommunications Co. Inc. (SubicTel) has increased its capacity to accommodate more DSL (digital subscriber line) subscribers in the Subic Bay Freeport area in response to the growing demand for high-speed Internet access.
From a capacity of only 514 lines, the company increased its capacity by 240, bringing the total to 754. This came as SubicTel, a fully-owned subsidiary of Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT), quickly built up its DSL subscriber base to some 480 subscribers as of end-2004.
SubicTel head Jose Ma. Abola said the subscriber pick-up for DSL subscribers has been faster than expected and that the company needed to upgrade its network to accommodate demand.
"Right now we have some 100 pending applications for the DSL service. We believe this is a reflection of the development occurring in Subic in terms of the impact of the Internet on people’s lives and their businesses," he said.
"SubicTel is intent on meeting the communications needs of the Subic Freeport residents with our cutting-edge network and cost-effective products and services," he added.
Earlier, the company announced an increase in the bandwidth of its DSL packages and the enhancement of its add-on services without imposing any increase in monthly fees. This was done in order to attract more retail and corporate clients and to allow existing clients to experience faster Internet access at a more affordable price.
Abola said SubicTel has all the cutting edge services needed by locators in the Freeport zone as well as retail clients for the past 10 years since its inception. These include residential lines, private leased lines, Virtual Private Network (VPN), Voice over VPN, and Voice over Internet Protocol (IP).
The company has so far invested over P1 billion since 1994 to upgrade its network and provide world-class communications services. It will continue to invest in its network in the years to come in order to keep up with the latest advancements in technology.
"This network upgrade and enhancement of DSL packages are only some of the changes planned for this year. Clients can expect more exciting things to come," said Abola.
