HyalRoute

The company's core business involves the planning, construction, ownership, and operation of independent, customer-neutral fiber optic networks. This infrastructure is then offered to a diverse client base—including mobile network operators, internet service providers (ISPs), governments, and corporations—primarily through the sale and long-term leasing of fiber strands. This shared infrastructure model provides a cost-effective solution for clients, allowing them to expand their network reach without the substantial capital expenditure of building their own fiber backbone. HyalRoute has established extensive terrestrial networks, notably spanning over 21,800 km in Cambodia and 27,480 km in Myanmar, covering all provinces in those countries. Its subsidiary, (Cambodia) Fiber Optic Communication Network Co., Ltd. (CFOCN), has been active since 2006, highlighting a long-term presence in the region before the parent company's official founding date.

A significant component of HyalRoute's strategy is its integration of domestic networks with international connectivity. The company is a member of the Asia-Africa-Europe-1 (AAE-1) submarine cable consortium, a 25,000-km network that links Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. This membership allows HyalRoute to provide its customers with a "one-stop" solution, combining domestic fiber access with direct international bandwidth, thereby connecting its landlocked networks to global data hubs. In Cambodia, for instance, the company was granted a 25-year Build-Own-Operate-Transfer (BOOT) concession to construct and operate the AAE-1 cable landing station and its corresponding submarine branch, a project valued at nearly $70 million. The company has also pursued expansion into other markets, such as the Philippines, where its subsidiary PFOCN committed to deploying a 60,000-km fiber network between 2019 and 2028 in alignment with the country's National Broadband Plan.
