GLO FINALLY DECIDES TO UP THEIR GAME

In line with its status as the game changer in telecommunications services provider in Nigeria, Globacom has again taken another step towards the transformation of the ICT landscape in Nigeria with the construction of a multi-billion naira optic fiber submarine cable. Tagged Glo 2, the roadmap for the project was unveiled at a contract-signing ceremony between the national operator, Globacom, and global telecom solutions vendors, Huawei at Eko Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, on Tuesday.

According to Globacom’s Regional Director, Technical, Mr. Sanjib Roy:

“The new submarine cable will be approximately 850 kilometres long and will be integrated to Globacom’s existing terrestrial Backbone Network to provide additional service redundancy, especially in Abuja and other parts of the country.

Glo 2 will have the capacity of 12 Terabytes per second and will provide ultra-high speed connection to oil platforms and communities to empower data coverage and support Enterprise market growth in this part of Nigeria.

Also speaking, the Managing Director of Huawei Nigeria, Mr Li Beifang, said that:
