After Dhaka and Khulna, the regional POP of ISPAB-NIX has been established in Chattogram to deliver secure and uninterrupted internet services of double speed across the country. ISPAB President Md. Imdadul Haque officially inaugurated the service at a local hotel in Chattogram on Friday (November 24, 2023) evening organized by Bangladesh Internet Service Providers Internet Exchange Trust.
Imdadul Haque, while speaking as the chief guest, thanked the Chattogram divisional committee, all the members of ISPAB in Chattogram division and IBPC and said that according to our election manifesto, we have established the permanent office of ISPAB with the help of members. 110 Gbps traffic has already been received by installing four POPs and Khalna divisional POPs at Mahakhali, Motijheel, Dhanmondi and Mirpur in the capital. We hope that with the help of IBPC we will be able to set up the required NIX POP in Mymensingh and Bogura within the next month.
He said, we are heading to data based civilization. Therefore, it will not be possible to build a data civilization if we cannot build a data highway. To that end ISPAB NIX is building a strong and sustainable highway within the country.
