Siquijor, Philippines — PLDT Enterprise continues to reinforce its regional presence across the Philippines through its long-standing partnership with Siquijor Island Cable TV Systems Corp., supporting the cable operator’s growth and enabling reliable digital services for subscribers across Siquijor Island.

The collaboration highlights how enterprise-grade connectivity can help regional service providers overcome geographic limitations, expand operations, and deliver stable digital services in island communities.

 A Commitment to Supporting Cable Operators Nationwide

PLDT Enterprise remains committed to supporting cable operators and regional connectivity providers across the country. By delivering dedicated internet and Ethernet transport solutions, PLDT Enterprise helps improve network performance, expand service coverage, support digital transformation initiatives, and enable enterprise-grade data transport.

“Through our continued, growing, and evolving partnership with Siquijor Island Cable TV Systems Corp., we demonstrate how PLDT Enterprise supports regional providers with scalable connectivity solutions that enable growth and service reliability,” said Ma. Hazel Amoyan, Customer Relationship Management Head – Visayas, PLDT Enterprise. “We remain committed to helping businesses across the regions operate efficiently and deliver consistent digital services to their communities.”

Representatives from PLDT Enterprise and Siquijor Island Cable TV Systems Corp. strengthen their long-standing partnership to enhance connectivity and digital access across Siquijor Island.

Siquijor Island Cable TV Systems Corp. is a regional cable service provider delivering television and digital connectivity services to residents and businesses throughout Siquijor Island. The company has steadily expanded its subscriber base and infrastructure capabilities through continuous technology upgrades and strategic partnerships.

Addressing Geographic and Operational Challenges

Operating in an island province presents unique connectivity challenges. Limited infrastructure options, complex deployment environments, and increasing subscriber demand required scalable, high-capacity solutions to maintain service quality.

PLDT Enterprise began its partnership with Siquijor Island Cable TV Systems Corp. in 2016 when the company subscribed to an iGate leased line. At the time, connectivity relied on Smart’s Base Transceiver Station (BTS) infrastructure to serve the island location.

 As subscriber demand grew, the partnership evolved. With PLDT’s fiber rollout to Siquijor in 2022, the client gained access to higher-capacity connectivity and improved reliability. Today, Siquijor Island Cable TV Systems Corp. subscribes to iGate Premium service and this year, it successfully deployed a Metro E-Line transport service connecting Siquijor to its mainland content source.

 From Siquijor Island Cable TV Systems Corp.’s Raul Villaver, President and CEO, shared that the collaboration has played a key role in the company’s expansion. “Our partnership with PLDT Enterprise has allowed us to upgrade our infrastructure as our subscriber base continues to grow. With improved capacity and stability, we are better equipped to deliver reliable digital television, broadband, and data services to customers across Siquijor Island.”

Enabling High-Capacity Content Delivery and Operational Continuity

The newly deployed Metro E-Line transport service enables high-capacity content delivery between Siquijor and mainland source infrastructure. This supports seamless transmission of high-bandwidth content such as HD channels, streaming services, and data-intensive applications.

Representatives from PLDT Enterprise and Siquijor Island Cable TV Systems Corp. strengthen their long-standing partnership to enhance connectivity and digital access across Siquijor Island.

The upgraded infrastructure improves network stability and service reliability for subscribers across Siquijor Island while strengthening operational continuity through enterprise-grade infrastructure designed for carrier-level uptime.

With scalable infrastructure in place, Siquijor Island Cable TV Systems Corp. has been able to continuously expand its subscriber base without network performance limitations.

As regional connectivity demands continue to increase, the partnership between PLDT Enterprise and Siquijor Island Cable TV Systems Corp. reflects a shared commitment to resilience, scalability, and long-term growth—strengthening digital access across island communities and reinforcing PLDT Enterprise’s presence across the Philippines.
