Cable Landing Stations in the Philippines

The Philippines takes an important position in the business process outsourcing (BPO) industry worldwide. Submarine networks serve as critical components to the BPO industry, providing reliable and diverse links between the Philippines and the rest of the world.

Since the acquisition of Digitel by PLDT in 2011 and the takeover of Bayantel by Globe Telecom in 2013, PLDT and Globe Telecom have formed the duopoly on international subsea cable market in the Philippines. 

In 2017,  the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) and the state-owned firm Bases Conversion and Development and Development Authority (BCDA) collaborated with Facebook to land PLCN in the Phillippines under the Luzon Bypass Infrastructure (LBI) project which is a government initiative for the National Broadband Plan (NBP) , the first of its kind for the Philippine government to implement by building and operating its own submarine cable landing stations. The BCDA builds the Luzon Bypass Infrastructure (LBI) made up of two cable landing stations and a 250 km long cable network corridor connecting the two cable landing stations.  

There are now 10 international submarine cable systems landing 9 cable landing stations in the Philippines.

PLDT's cable landing stations include:

  • Batangas Cable Landing Station for APCN (retired), APCN-2, Guam-Philippines, SMW3
  • Cavite Cable Landing Station for EAC (now a part of the EAC-C2C network)
  • La Union Cable Landing Station for AAG
  • Daet Cable Landing Station for ASE and Jupiter

Globe Telecom's cable landing stations include:

  • Nasugbu Cable Landing Station for SJC and C2C (now a part of the EAC-C2C network)
  • Ballesteros Cable Landing Station for TGN-IA
  • Davao Cable Landing Station for SEA-US

BCDA's cable landing stations include:

  • Baler/Aurora Cable Landing Station for PLCN
  • San Fernando Cable Landing Station for PLCN

DICT has signed agreement to offer its cable landing facilities to China Telecom Global which is the third telecom operator in the Phillipines.
