PLDT's digital fiber optic network (DFON) covering Visayas and Mindanao currently has 20 nodes or a capacity of about 100 gigabytes per second.

This can transmit about three million 'uncompressed' voice calls per second, Ramos said, adding that PLDT will add more nodes that can handle additional capacity of 70Gbps.
