Snaking its way to Africa – An Underwater Cable That Promises Unlimited Broadband Access
By: BizAssist
Date: 2009/02/25

From June 2009, southern and eastern Africa will finally get truly connected to international broadband networks
The construction of Seacom's 15 000km fibre-optic undersea cable, which will link southern and east Africa, Europe and south Asia, is on schedule and set to go live as planned in June 2009.

Seacom, which is privately funded and over three-quarters African owned, will assist communication carriers in south and east Africa through the sale of wholesale international capacity to global networks via India and Europe.

The environmental impact assessment on the project is well advanced, with archaeological, marine and ecological studies having been completed. The company has also had social consultations with all affected parties.

With the first portions of the deepwater cable now resting on the seabed of the Indian Ocean and the Red Sea, South Africa can see itself being connected by June 2009.

This is exciting news for SME’s and entrepreneurs who have connections in other parts of the world where communications have sometimes been slow or non-existent at times, hindering business and slowing down processes whereby the economies of countries could benefit.

Brian Herlihy, SEACOM President, said: "We are delighted to have actual cable in the water and the count-down to June has begun.We have made tremendous progress since our groundbreaking in Mozambique last November and we can now sense a real level of excitement for SEACOM's arrival. Through my travels, I continuously meet people who speak about the many ways they intend to exploit the world of broadband which is about to reach Africa.

"I am also most pleased with our recruitment successes and the fact that SEACOM was able to source the necessary skills to operate the cable from African talent. We are inundated with highly qualified candidates and hiring almost all of our employees from African labour pools."

From June 2009, southern and eastern Africa will finally get truly connected to international broadband networks. Plentiful and readily available bandwidth will result in lower telecommunications costs and new opportunities across many sectors that will include the call center and business process outsourcing industries. Other life-enhancing disciplines such as educational, clinical and scientific research, which rely on the real-time sharing of data around the world, will also become a reality for many Africans organisations.
