As of December 31, 2022, Converge has already deployed more than two million fiber ports in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, further cementing its position as the largest fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) network in the Philippines.
Fiber Internet provider Converge ICT Solutions said on Thursday, Nov. 10, that it now has more than 6.7 million fiber ports, making it the largest fiber infrastructure network in the Philippines.
Converge also said that its investment in a basketball team franchise in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) would bring immense exposure to the company.
