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.
