    Using these CDN nodes, Level 3 will enable rich, high-quality content to be delivered directly to operators and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) that interconnect with SEACOM's IP/MPLS network.

    Mark Tinka, SEACOM's Head of Engineering says: "We're excited to work with Level 3 to enable our operator and ISP customers to improve their quality of service and provide a better experience to their end-users."

    SEACOM's IP/MPLS network was recognised as the Best Pan-Africa Initiative at the 2013 AfricaCom Awards. By bringing content directly to the continent via Level 3's CDN nodes, SEACOM is providing an even better and more comprehensive service to the African telecom industry.
