Nokia builds multi-terabit pan-African optical backbone for Liquid Intelligent Technologies
A new agreement between Liquid Intelligent Technologies and Nokia will see the launch of a first-of-its-kind network connecting subsea landing stations in Kenya, South Africa and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The terrestrial network, which will create a digital highway with the potential to handle significant traffic across sub-Saharan Africa, forms part of an agreement that will see Nokia deploy a next-generation optical transport network connecting Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, DRC, Zambia, Zimbabwe and South Africa.
