    The PoP is connected to both the EASSy and SEACOM undersea cables which enable Gilat Satcom to provide advanced services such as MPLS with full redundancy.

    The new PoP was established to answer growing demand from current and new customers in East Africa to improve domestic and international broadband connectivity.

    Gilat Satcom has a growing range of fibre routes in coastal and landlocked Africa and provides telcos, ISPs, Governments and businesses with fast and reliable broadband connectivity at a highly competitive price.

    Pan-African satellite footprint

    Its MPLS network connects to both the WACS, EASSy and SEACOM undersea cables via fibre local loops across Tanzania, Zambia, Malawi, Namibia and Mozambique. In addition, Gilat Satcom's pan-African satellite footprint allows its MPLS network to reach the most remote areas of the continent.

    Gilat Satcom's African headquarters is in Lagos and it has a number of joint ventures across Africa including Microlink in Zambia and Raga in the DRC.
