DITO Telecommunity introduced DITO Home WOWFi, the first 5G RedCap technology Wi-Fi in the world for home usage, powered by DITO’s Standalone, “true 5G” network.
In partnership with Huawei Technologies, 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.
