Powering Digital Africa with Telesonic

With more than 75,000 kilometres of ground fibre, Telesonic’s network makes it easier for Airtel Africa to reach all 14 of its markets. 

In addition, the business has put money into the 2Africa underwater cable system, an ambitious project that will change how people in Africa, the Middle East, and Europe connect. 

As the biggest submarine cable project in these parts of the world, 2Africa promises to connect 33 countries in a way that has never been done before. It will significantly affect education and healthcare by making them more efficient and accessible.

Telesonic provides a variety of services, such as leased lines for both domestic and foreign calls, dedicated internet access, IP and IP transit services, and MPLS services. Its broad range of services shows that Airtel Africa is serious about making Africa more digitally capable.

Africa’s Airtel Group CEO remarked

According to Airtel Africa’s Group CEO, Segun Ogunsanya, “The establishment of Airtel Africa Telesonic Limited underscores Airtel Africa’s commitment to addressing Africa’s needs for the digital revolution by providing cutting-edge fibre-optic solutions.” 

He called for bridging the digital divide, especially for the continent’s growing youth population, to spur creativity and economic growth.

It’s not just a technological leap that Airtel Africa made when it invested in Telesonic; it’s also a step towards growth that brings people and ideas together across borders. 

Airtel Africa Telesonic is helping to make Africa’s digital revolution possible by improving the continent’s digital infrastructure. It will keep Africa at the cutting edge of technology progress and connectivity.
