PLDT and Smart switch on first two 5G base stations

PLDT and Smart are looking to pilot 5G solutions designed for densely populated areas, said Ernesto R. Alberto, PLDT and Smart executive vice president and chief revenue officer. PLDT and Smart chair and CEO Manuel V. Pangilinan claims they are the first 5G sites to be activated in the Philippines.

The companies activated the first 5G cell site at PLDT’s headquarters in Makati City with technology partner Huawei, while they also switched on the first 5G cell site at the Clark Smart 5G City in the CFZ with technology partner Ericsson.
