More Zamboangueños are set to experience better 5G connectivity as Globe expands its network across key areas of Zamboanga City. With new sites and upgrades underway, the improvements will give customers faster and more reliable connectivity for work, school, business, entertainment and everyday digital needs.

 

The rollout focuses on areas with high customer activity and data use, helping improve the mobile experience as more residents rely on connectivity throughout the day. Customers can expect better video calls, faster downloads and more access to apps and online services.

 

“Customers in Zamboanga City are using mobile connectivity for more of the things they do each day. We continue to improve our network to give them a better experience, whether they are working, studying, doing business, accessing services, or staying connected with family and friends,” said Jowin Marquez, Senior Director, Network Technical Group at Globe.

 

Expanding Connectivity Across Zamboanga City

 

Globe currently has more than 200 sites across Zamboanga City, with over 40 more in the pipeline as it continues to expand coverage and capacity for Zamboangueños. Nearly half of its network in the city is already 5G-enabled, reaching around 99% of the population within its 5G coverage areas. 

 

These improvements mean a more consistent mobile experience at home, at work or while on the go. Students can access learning resources, businesses can reach customers and manage transactions online, while residents can stay connected and use digital services more reliably.

 

“Reliable connectivity is important to the continued growth of Zamboanga City. We welcome Globe’s efforts to improve its network, which will help give our residents and businesses better access to digital services and opportunities,” said Hon. Khymer Adan Olaso, Zamboanga City Mayor.

 

Bringing 5G Closer to Customers

 

Alongside the network rollout, Globe will continue to hold on-ground activities in key areas of Zamboanga City where customers can experience its 5G connectivity firsthand. Community activations and customer engagements in high-traffic locations will also provide residents with more information on the improved network experience.

 

As Zamboanga City becomes more digitally connected, Globe is focused on making that connectivity count for the people and communities it serves. By improving the mobile experience across the city, Globe is helping more Zamboangueños stay connected, get things done and access more opportunities online.
