Megacable launches 5 Gbps plans: what it means for Megacable stock
Published on 10/08/2026 at 15:35 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSMegacable launched symmetric 2 Gbps and 5 Gbps broadband plans with Wi-Fi 7 on October 6, 2026. As Telecompaper reported, the first rollout covers selected areas of Guadalajara, Monterrey and Mexico City. The combination of faster access and Wi-Fi 7 gives Megacable stock a concrete operating development to assess.
Three dated operating steps
On September 22, 2026, Expansion reported that Megacable had expanded its fiber network to 110,965 kilometers by June 2026, up 66.40 percent from 66,674 kilometers at the end of 2021. On September 11, 2026, Prensario reported 6.02 million broadband subscribers in the second quarter, 8.50 percent more than a year earlier, alongside MXN 9.33 billion of revenue, up 7.20 percent year over year. On October 6, 2026, Telecompaper reported the 2 Gbps and 5 Gbps launch.
What does 5 Gbps mean for growth?
The rollout matters because the company is monetizing a network that already reaches more customers and homes. Prensario said 88.00 percent of broadband subscribers were on fiber in the second quarter, compared with 80.00 percent a year earlier, while capital spending reached MXN 2.185 billion, or 23.40 percent of revenue.
The commercial test is therefore not only speed. Megacable must convert higher network capacity into additional subscribers and revenue while funding expansion. The second-quarter figures show both sides of that equation: revenue grew 7.20 percent, while the company invested MXN 2.185 billion in network expansion.
BMV valuation and operating scale
On BMV, Megacable stock was last at MXN 52.36 on October 7, 2026. The 52-week range was MXN 49.21 to MXN 69.32, putting the latest price MXN 3.15 above the low and MXN 16.96 below the high. Market capitalization stood at MXN 45.4 billion on October 7, 2026.
TipRanks reported that Megacable had more than 6 million broadband subscribers, more than 4 million video subscribers and about 5.3 million fixed-line telephony customers at the end of June 2026. The same report said the network reached nearly 19.8 million homes, giving the new high-speed plans a broad infrastructure base.
Dates and market context
The rollout began on October 6, 2026, with availability limited to selected areas before expansion to additional Mexican cities. The second-quarter reporting period ended June 30, 2026, and the operating figures published for that period provide the latest quantified baseline for the new plans.
