In November 2012 (at Africa Com), WIOCC won the Best Pan-African Initiative Award for building an unparalleled, diversity-rich, high-capacity African network which seamlessly links more than 50,000km of terrestrial fibre and in excess of 40,000km of submarine cable - with landings all around the continent. WIOCC’s unrivalled network gives carriers access to affordable, reliable, high-speed connectivity to and from over 400 locations across 30 African countries, as well as to 100 cities in 29 countries in Europe and more than 700 cities in 70 countries globally. To address the proliferation of international and terrestrial links, and the challenge this presents to carriers and ISPs looking to improve their own network resilience and performance (by building in additional diversity), WIOCC developed an attractive one-stop-shop, end-to-end managed service solution. Simpler and much more convenient than having to deal direct with multiple operators, WIOCC’s one-stop-shop solution shields customers from much of the complexity associated with delivering reliable high-performance international connections into, out of and within Africa.
