Globacom, Nigeria-based telecom operator, says it is upgrading its network infrastructure across the country in order to improve customer satisfaction and satisfy the growing demand for voice and data services.

According to the company, the upgrade entails network densification projects in areas with rapid population growth as well as the deployment of new base stations to cover underserved locations.

Globacom claims that the initiative will ensure better service quality for its subscribers throughout Nigeria, particularly in light of the most recent tariff adjustment that regulators approved for the entire industry.

“Several new sites are being rolled out, and hundreds of 4G LTE locations have already been deployed across key cities this year alone,” Globacom said in a statement.

Globacom steps up efforts to relocate fibre-optic cables

Globacom has stepped up its efforts to relocate fibre in response to ongoing road construction projects that have caused network infrastructure disruptions in certain regions of the nation, according to Sanjib Roy, Executive Director, Technical.

Auchi–Okene, Benin–Ekpoma, Lafia–Akwanga, Minna–Abuja, and Funtua–Gusau are among the routes that are impacted.

“At significant cost, we are relocating our fibre-optic cables in areas affected by uncoordinated road projects and vandalism so as to maintain quality and ensure service continuity,” Roy said.

Enhancement of core network capacity

The telco also acknowledged that it has been enhancing its core network capacity and growing its backhaul infrastructure, upgrading both fibre and microwave links, in addition to the access network upgrades.

In order to guarantee network resilience and dependability, Globacom stated that it is giving fibre extension to its hub sites top priority and intends to add more than 1,000 new locations over the course of the next 12 months.

Initiatives to reduce carbon emissions

The business also mentioned initiatives to reduce its carbon footprint through the use of hybrid energy sources. “We are increasingly relying on battery power across our sites rather than diesel-powered generators,” Mr. Roy added.

Globacom emphasised the need for increased protection of the nation’s digital backbone, which has been identified as critical national infrastructure, and voiced concern over the ongoing sabotage of telecom infrastructure across the country in spite of these investments.

Introduction of Glo’s e-SIM service

In March, Techpression reported that Globacom introduced an embedded SIM (e-SIM) service that enables users to connect to its network without a physical SIM card.

In a press statement, the business announced the launch and highlighted a 5GB data incentive for those who activate the e-SIM with a data plan that costs at least N1,500.

By doing away with the necessity for a physical SIM card, the eSIM—a software-based digital chip integrated into smartphones and wearable technology—allows for smooth number switching.

According to Globacom, the technology is perfect for professionals and frequent travellers who need several lines without having to carry around different SIM cards.
