Angola Cables & Camtel boost West African connectivity

Angola Cables and Camtel have joined forces to enhance digital and connectivity services across Cameroon and the broader West African region 

Their collaborative efforts, aimed at cultivating business prospects in the area, are geared towards enhancing redundancy, network resilience, and the quality of service (QoS) on both national and international scales.

By leveraging Angola Cables' extensive backhaul network, which includes connections with key subsea cable systems such as WACS, SACS, and Monet, alongside Camtel's access to SAIL (South Atlantic Inter Link), the partnership will facilitate an expanded range of capacity offerings for enterprise clients, thereby improving traffic accessibility to both local and regional networks.

Camtel CEO Judith Yah Sunday Epse Achidi said, “Our strategic intent is to build on the robust backhaul connectivity of the Angola Cables network, and the existing interconnections we have in place with other submarine cables connecting the region and the world, to provide flexible and secure value added services for our clients and businesses.”

“For users, the partnership will help to secure connectivity, trade, boost economies, and help expand as well as grow businesses across the region,” said Fernando Fernandes, country manager of Angola Cables subsidiary TelCables Nigeria.
