Plus’s existing infrastructure is ready to handle the voice traffic, which has been growing recently, as well as the bigger volumes of data transferred over the network.

Polsat Group’s technological resources enable us to maintain the high quality of the services we provide in the face of higher traffic volumes in the network.

The threats associated with the coronavirus epidemics, as well as the related change of people’s daily habits, create a challenge for the economy and for the entire society.

Cyfrowy Polsat Group, of which the operator of Plus network is a member, is prepared for the growing number of voice calls and increased volumes of data traffic generated, among others, as a result of higher consumption of multimedia content or migration of their business processes by many companies to remote communication channels. In spite of the observed higher network usage, Plus customers need not worry – our network is technologically prepared for such challenges.

“Coronavirus epidemics has changed our daily lives. Remote work, closed schools, recommendations to stay home – all of these lead to higher traffic in the Internet. Thanks to the efficiently operating infrastructure of our network and use of state-of-the-art technologies in the process of its construction, we are ready for the bigger traffic generated by our users. We assure full functionality and quality of operation of our network to our customers,” explains Mirosław Błaszczyk, the President of the Management Board of Cyfrowy Polsat and Polkomtel, the operator of Plus network.

Moreover Plus has taken additional actions to increase the capabilities of the network and of the provided services. Further service-related and technological solutions will be implemented on on-going basis, depending on the situation.

Cyfrowy Polsat, being the biggest media-and-telecommunications group in Poland, is also introducing services and products in response to its customers’ needs.
