Tweet

DITO Telecommunity, the fastest growing telco provider in the country, introduces DITO Home WOWFi– the first 5G RedCap technology Wi-Fi in the world for home usage, powered by DITO's Standalone, "true 5G" network.

Enjoy an amazing home internet experience with DITO Home WOWFi

-------------------------------------------

In partnership with Huawei Technologies, one of the global leaders in 5G deployment, DITO brings its newest product to the market, unlocking the full potential of 5G, bringing fast internet speeds of up to 100 megabits per second (Mbps) to allow more Filipinos to enjoy the true 5G experience at an affordable cost.

Evelyn Jimenez, DITO Chief Revenue Officer for Consumer Business, claims that DITO's newest home WOWFi, is changing the norm and disrupting the market, enriching the lives of Filipino households with better internet options that suit their needs.

"In reality, the current internet options of Filipino households are quite limiting. You can get fast and unlimited Wi-Fi, but it won't be cheap; you can get fast and affordable but not unlimited, and you can get affordable and unlimited, but it won't be fast– this is the reality we live in. As the third telco committed to enhancing the lives of the Filipino people, we want to change the norm and disrupt the market by giving Filipinos the home internet they deserve– fast, unlimited, and affordable." Jimenez said.

"With DITO Home WOWFi, we want to jolt Filipinos out of their old ways of dealing with their internet at home; our goal is to give them a life-changing home Wi-Fi that lets them live big and never lets them down, especially in this age of digitalization and technological advancements," Jimenez added.

5G RedCap Technology: The Future of IoT Application

5G RedCap is a new 5G standard and critical evolution of 5G originally called NR-Light, an important part of lightweight 5G. This kind of technology only operates on 5G Standalone (SA) networks, the "true 5G," offering high capacity, maximum quality, and lower latency compared to 5G Non-Standalone (NSA) networks that rely on existing 4G infrastructures.

"5G RedCap is a new addition to the 5G family, offering the right balance of 5G capabilities. It is the kind of technology that provides all the benefits of 5G, such as low latency, high peak data rate, maximum capacity, without the need for high bandwidth," said Huawei Technologies.

Globally, 5G RedCap is only being utilized for industrial use, but this time, here in the Philippines, DITO is bringing this technology straight to Filipino homes, allowing them to enjoy the full potential of 5G.

DITO is the sole telco operator in the country with a true 5G or 5G SA network to date; hence, it can deliver this emerging technology. DITO's newest Home WOWFi is also the first in the world for home, driving the future for Internet of Things (IoT) or smart home applications and supporting the growth of the digital economy.

Enjoy greater convenience, just plug and play!

One of the standout features of the DITO Home WOWFi is the ease of installation. Filipino households can enjoy its wireless broadband advantage, which is a big step up from wired connections, offering greater reliability and convenience versus fiber– there is no need for messy wires, just plug-and-play! Whether gearing up for remote work, online learning, or simply staying connected with family and friends, this device gets you online in no time.

This home Wi-Fi is also suitable for underserved areas where wired connections are no longer feasible, bridging the digital divide and providing a quality home internet experience to remote areas.

Aside from going wireless, DITO Home WOWFi is also a prepaid service– no documents required, no monthly fees, and no lock-in period or long-term contracts. The Starter Kit is the most value-packed price in the market at Php 1,990 with complimentary unlimited 5G data and 50GB 4G data for 30 days. The succeeding monthly load option is only at Php 790 for 30 days with UNLI 5G and bonus 50GB 4G data, which only applies to 4G covered areas.

Interested subscribers can conveniently purchase DITO Home WOWFi at DITO e-Shop, DITO Experience Stores, Device Retail Partners, Sales Blitzes, and DITO official stores in Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok

With DITO Home WOWFi, experience the power of true 5G and say hello to the life-changing home internet experience that leaves behind the old era of internet.

SMDC leads the charge in building disaster-resilient communities across PH

Tweet

As the Philippines plays host to this year’s Asia-Pacific Ministerial Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction (APMCDRR), leading property developer SM Development Corporation (SMDC) reaffirms its commitment to building communities that prioritize safety, resilience and sustainability. With the Philippines being one of the most disaster-prone countries in the world, SMDC has made disaster preparedness and resilience at the core of its design and construction philosophy.

“Disaster resilience should not just be an add-on — it’s a necessity,” said Jessica Sy, VP and Head of Design, Innovation and Strategy. “We are proud to take a leadership role in designing communities that can withstand the unique environmental challenges of our country. By integrating disaster-resilient features and fostering a culture of preparedness, we ensure that our residents can feel safe and secure in their homes, no matter what challenges arise.”

Charm Residences in Cainta, Rizal features elevated construction that ensures the safety of residents during heavy rainfall and flooding events.

Building strong foundation for resilience

Recognizing the unique vulnerabilities of this country to typhoons, earthquakes, and floods, SMDC employs a robust set of strategies to safeguard its residents.

· Elevated construction for flood prevention – SMDC buildings are designed with raised ground elevation to mitigate the impact of flooding, a common concern in low-lying areas.

· Innovative stormwater management systems - To combat heavy rainfall, SMDC properties are equipped with rainwater detention tanks that can reduce water runoff by up to 85%. This system ensures proper drainage and minimizes the risk of flooding within the development. Field Residences in Sucat, Parañaque, for example, features an advanced stormwater system capable of handling rainfall levels similar to those experienced during Typhoon Ondoy.

· Earthquake-resistant structures – With the Philippines being situated along the Pacific Ring of Fire, SMDC properties are built to fully comply with seismic codes, incorporating passive design strategies to reduce the impact of earthquakes on buildings.

Empowering communities through preparedness

SMDC regularly conducts disaster preparedness trainings among its residents and property management staff to ensure the communities’ readiness for emergencies and natural calamities.

Beyond the physical infrastructure, SMDC believes that building resilient communities goes beyond construction. The company conducts regular disaster preparedness training for residents and property management staff to equip them with the knowledge and skills needed in the event of a disaster.

SMDC's property management teams are trained in emergency response, ensuring that they can provide immediate assistance to residents during critical times.

Resilience at the heart of SMDC’s vision

In addition to physical disaster mitigation measures, SMDC properties include ample green spaces and refuge areas where residents can seek safety in the event of an emergency. This holistic approach to disaster resilience aligns with SMDC’s broader vision of creating sustainable, thriving communities where residents can live well, even in the face of environmental risks.

Commitment to sustainability

Looking ahead, SMDC is focused on continuously improving its disaster-resilience strategies. The company plans to expand its rainwater management systems and implement further green innovations, including solar-powered backup systems and renewable energy solutions, ensuring that its communities remain functional even during prolonged emergencies.#
