Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>The Minister of Telecommunications, Information Technologies and Social Communication, Ma\u0301rio Oliveira, highlighted, this Sunday, in Luanda, the Government’s commitment to infrastructures to ensure the technological future of the country.<\/b><\/p>\n

Speaking at the landing ceremony of Cabo Submarino 2A\u0301frica on the waterfront of the municipality of Cacuaco, in Luanda, he underlined that, with the aforementioned connection, Angola will register improvements in various segments, such as knowledge, development, science, digital economy, improvement of employment and \u201ca better future for all\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cA country can only be built with knowledge, awareness, development and also with great leadership. Our country has great leadership and proof of that is the support we gave to Unitel, in order to embrace this great project that is 2A\u0301frica\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n

The minister emphasized that, with infrastructure, the sector is putting into practice what is set out in the white paper on telecommunications and information technology, \u201cnamely in transforming Angola into an important hub for telecommunications in Africa.<\/p>\n

Ma\u0301rio Oliveira highlighted that, with the aforementioned cable, the country will make its contribution to improving communications in neighboring countries.<\/p>\n

The minister recalled that in the month of July another fiber optic link was inaugurated with Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).<\/p>\n

With this additional infrastructure, he said, the country will be in a position to improve connections with these countries and give substance to an African network that is being built with the collaboration of all African countries.<\/p>\n

More than 45,000 km long, the submarine cable system is designed to provide continuous international connectivity for approximately 3 billion people, representing 36% of the global population, and connecting three continents, Africa, Europe and Asia.<\/p>\n

The system, which is expected to come on stream in 2024, is expected to deliver more than the total combined capacity of all submarine cables currently serving Africa, with a capacity of up to 180 Tbps (Terabits per second) in the main segments of the system. .<\/p>\n

The project is a consortium with Vodafone, WIOCC, China Mobile International, MTN, Orange, Telecom Egypt, STC and Meta (Facebook).<\/p>\n

UNITEL is the only Angolan operator to join the consortium, with an investment of US$52 million, and is responsible for creating conditions for mooring and operating the 2A\u0301frica cable connection to Angola.<\/p>\n

Through its national fiber optic network, UNITEL will be able to provide access to national telecommunications operators and neighboring countries, namely Zambia, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Namibia.<\/p>\n
