Tonga internet restoration delayed after repair ship breaks down

Infrastructure provider Bahrain Network (BNET) announced late last week the launch of a project to transfer all the kingdom’s copper internet networks to an ultra-high-speed fibre network.

Philippine telco Globe Telecom says it recently held a successful pilot test of 50GPON, which it hopes will not only boost the user experience for its fibre broadband service, but also unlock other potential use cases for enterprises.

South African fibre installation company Lightstruck has entered into an agreement with the Namibian City of Windhoek’s City Link initiative to advance the city’s fibre network commercialisation efforts.
