I currently have a 64/128 kbps wireless link small office. It is very slow, will the landing of the submarine cables make my internet connection faster?

YES; submarine cables deliver a faster and more responsive internet experience. The arrival of large amounts of cost-effective international bandwidth in Africa means that more capacity is available and at lower prices. This allows data to be carried much more efficiently than before, speeding up your internet experience. Submarine systems also allow low-latency data transfer (particularly EASSy, which offers the lowest latency route between eastern Africa and most of the world’s internet content), which means minimal delays and more responsive websites and internet-based applications ^ BACK TO THE TOP 43. What is the latency on fibre compared to satellite? Typically the latency on fibre is between 30 milliseconds to 120 milliseconds depending on distance. Latency between South Africa and London is less than 200 milliseconds over EASSy. Satellite for a point-to-point link is typically upwards of 570 milliseconds. ^ BACK TO THE TOP 44. Just how big is 4Tbps? 4 Tbps is equivalent to 4 mi
