Motorola will work with StarHub to upgrade the Singaporean company's broadband network.
Customers should benefit from the project by the second half of this year, Motorola said.
"With the evolving demands for more multimedia online content, network storage, and increasing convergence of PC and TV devices, like that of the Microsoft Windows XP media center edition 2005, we expect growing demand for higher speeds to continue, and perhaps to accelerate over the next few years," Thomas Ee, senior vice president of Internet protocol services at StarHub, said in a news release.
"This upgrade with Motorola will ensure that our broadband network continues to stay ahead of the demand, providing our customers with a smooth, seamless transition to greater broadband speeds, should they require it in the future," he added.
