The Tanzania
Telecommunications Company Limited (TTCL) has announced plans to extend
its high-speed internet service, Internet Protocol Point of Presence
(IP-PoP), to the East and Southern African countries of Uganda and
Malawi.
According
to Peter Ngota, Chief Marketing and Sales Officer with the TTCL, in an
effort to provide high speed, cost-effective, high quality and secure
connectivity solutions from multiple points, the Tanzania internet
service has already been expanded to mobile phone operators in Uganda
and Malawi.
“It will provide cost effective, high
quality and secure fully protected global IP connectivity solutions to
telecom operators, internet service providers (ISPs) and service
providers that are connected to Dar es Salaam through major
international submarine and terrestrial cable systems,” he indicated in a
Daily News report.
In
addition to its current expansion project, the TTCL also hosts and
operators the National ICT Broadband Backbone which connects the country
to the rest of the world via its submarine fibre optic network, which
has also been extended to nine border points in Rwanda, Burundi, Uganda,
Kenya, Malawi, Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) |
