PLDT promises “always on” fibre access with FWA LTE backup

Internet users in Bangladesh are facing disruption after the country’s second submarine cable, SEA-ME-WE 5, the largest supplier of international bandwidth to Bangladesh, broke over the weekend.

Burundi and Zambia are to be connected via an underwater fibre optic cable, following an agreement at the second Digital Government Africa Summit, which took place from 2-4 October 2024 in Zambia’s capital Lusaka.

Global connectivity provider Telxius says it is opening its latest submarine cable route with the extension of SAm-1 between Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico.
