KUALA LUMPUR: Time dotCom Bhd's (TDC) full fibre network service is now available in 30,000 homes and offices in the Golden Triangle and Mont Kiara area, said chief executive officer Afzal Abdul Rahim.
We are now planning to connect another 16,000 premises over the next few months, he said yesterday after unveiling its new corporate identity.
The service would see homes and businesses enjoying broadband at a speed of up to 50 megabits per second, while addressing the bandwidth needs of large enterprises with speed of up to 10 gigabits per second.
Afzal said these levels of Internet speed were made available in the market for the first time.

Businesses in the area are now positioned to take advantage of new bandwidth-intensive applications, which can help improve efficiency and productivity. Consumers who have been deprived of bandwidth for many years are finally able to experience the true digital lifestyle of multiple-connected devices for the first time, he said.
He added that the group's focus now was to offer the service to high-rise buildings and apartments and currently, it was working at the rate of 20 to 30 buildings per month.
On the group's new corporate identity, Afzal said it represented the essential values in becoming the type of service provider that TDC was one that ultimately pushed its competitiveness and performance to levels higher than the industry norm.
He admitted that the competition in the market was tough but TDC would use its assets and continue to give its services when there was demand.
TDC's100% fibre-based services are readily available for both businesses and consumers in the Golden Triangle and Mont Kiara area with packages starting from RM99 for consumers and RM148 for businesses.
