This technology will deliver minimum average broadband speeds of 75 Mbps for 4G and 639 Mbps for 5G, providing participants seamless connectivity throughout the event.
DITO’s commitment to expanding network coverage in Cebu, the Philippines’ second-largest metropolitan area, further underscores its dedication to bridging connectivity gaps.
