Tata Communications partners with SEACOM

Tata Communications has entered into partnership with SEACOM to offer high-speed, reliable pathways between Africa, Europe and Asia to meet the growing demand for connectivity linking these regions.

Reflecting the increasing appetite for investment into Africa, this partnership allows SEACOM and Tata Communications to leverage each other's regional and global networks to address enterprises' connectivity requirements. SEACOM's dedicated subsea cable system runs up the east coast of Africa and connects to India in Mumbai. Given Tata Communications' strong presence in the Indian subcontinent, SEACOM customers can connect seamlessly onwards into business hubs such as Beijing, Hong Kong, and Singapore in Asia as well as Marseille, London, Frankfurt and Amsterdam in Europe, with Tata Communications' wholly owned global Tier-1 Internet Protocol (IP) network.

Tata Communications will now leverage SEACOM to extend its IP and Global Dedicated Ethernet (GOE) service platforms into South Africa. SEACOM will support Tata Communications' IP and GOE customers across Southern and East Africa. Well-positioned to take care of these customers, SEACOM has been extending its networks across the continent through its acquisition of FibreCo and the building of metro fibre in major city centres across Southern and East Africa.
