RADIUS Telecoms Inc. has been tapped by the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) to help ensure stable and high-capacity connectivity for the two-day 48th Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) Leaders’ Summit in Cebu.
The Philippines is hosting the 48th Asean Leaders Summit from May 7 to 8.
In a statement, Radius said it had reinforced network performance and reliability across key high-traffic locations in Lapu-Lapu City deemed critical to the Asean summit operations.
The telecommunications firm said it extended connectivity support beyond the primary venue to both terminals of Mactan-Cebu International Airport and major hotels hosting delegations and stakeholders, supplying internet links of up to 10 gigabits per second.
Radius said the setup was intended to ensure consistent service performance and continuity amid heightened demand during the summit period.
The company also provided similar connectivity support in Metro Manila for other summit-related activities.
“As we look forward to the Asean Leaders’ Summit, Radius is ready to support the connectivity requirement of an event of this scale across key venues, including the Mactan Expo Center, the Mactan World Museum, and Shangri-La Mactan,” Radius President and CEO Exequiel Delgado said.
“In gatherings that bring together the region’s heads of state, reliable enterprise-grade connectivity becomes a vital enabler of secure, continuous coordination across teams and locations,” he added.
Radius operates an end-to-end fiber optic network, serving enterprises in sectors such as banking, manufacturing, telecommunications, business process outsourcing and retail.
The company expanded its network operations to Clark in 2019 and to Cebu in 2020, noting that its core network capacity now exceeded 1.2 terabits per second. NAZYLEN JOY MABANGLO
