The cable from London will circle the African continent and return to London in April next year to start operating.<\/p>\n

In addition to the minister, the event was attended by the Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources, Carmen Sacramento Neto, and the chairman of Unitel’s Board of Directors, Aguinaldo Jaime.<\/p>\n

2Africa is a consortium with Vodafone, WIOCC, China Mobile International, MTN, Orange, Telecom Egypt, STC and Meta (Facebook) and is designed to provide seamless international connectivity to approximately 3 billion people, representing 36% of the global population , and connecting three continents: Africa, Europe and Asia.<\/p>\n

The undersea cable project aims to significantly increase the capacity, quality and availability of internet connectivity between Africa and the rest of the world.<\/p>\n

UNITEL is the only Angolan operator that joined the consortium, being responsible for creating conditions for mooring and operating the 2A\u0301frica cable connection to Angola.<\/p>\n

Through its national fiber network, the operator will be able to provide access to 2A\u0301frica to national telecommunications operators and operators from neighboring countries, such as Zambia, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Namibia.<\/p>\n
