Djibouti Telecom’s strategic location makes it an ideal landing point for this transformative project, positioning the nation as a crucial hub for global connectivity. With an estimated economic impact of $26.2 billion to $36.9 billion, the 2Africa cable holds the potential to unleash unprecedented opportunities for digital growth and economic development across Africa.
PEACE Cable: Strengthening Regional Networks
Operating on an open-cable model, the PEACE cable system promises reduced network latency and enhanced flexibility for operators across regions. With plans for expansion to Singapore, PEACE will further enhance connectivity between Asia, Africa, and Europe.
IAX & IEX System: Meeting Growing Demands
The India Asia Xpress (IAX) and India Europe Xpress (IEX) systems are set to offer over 200Tbps of capacity, providing vital alternatives on popular data routes between Southeast Asia and Europe. At the end of last year, the IEX cable landed in Djibouti. These cutting-edge cables will address the surging demand for data transport in the world’s fastest-growing digital economies.
Djibouti Telecom: Leading the Charge Towards Connectivity
As the global demand for fast and reliable connectivity continues to escalate, Djibouti Telecom remains committed to its vision of becoming the premier telecom hub for East Africa. By providing landing points for major submarine cables like 2Africa, PEACE, and IEX, Djibouti Telecom is laying the groundwork for a more connected and prosperous future. With its strategic position at the intersection of Africa, Asia, and Europe, Djibouti Telecom is poised to lead the charge towards a more connected world.
