“By installing Smart Wifi in these important establishments, we are empowering more Filipinos by making quality connectivity more accessible for them to do their school work or access important government services,” said Jovy Hernandez, Senior Vice President and Head of Enterprise for PLDT and Smart.
“With this extensive roll-out of carrier-grade Smart Wifi across the country, PLDT is leading the country’s digital transformation into a Smart Nation,” he added.
1Gbps backhaul capacity
A backhaul capacity of up to 1 gigabit per second allows users to have the best digital experience when accessing their emails and social media accounts, downloading and sending files on-the-go, streaming videos and music, playing online games, and checking out relevant digital content and services online.
Connected Festivals
Smart Wifi has also powered high-traffic areas during local festivities. This October, festival-goers attending the Hermosa Festival in Zamboanga City can share their photos and videos on-the-go using Smart Wifi available in Plaza Pershing, RT Lim Boulevard and Paseo del Mar.
Recently, Smart Wifi also powered the Kadayawan Festival in Davao and the Tuna Festival in General Santos.
