Digicel leads project to deliver high-capacity undersea cable to Haiti

摘要

Two years after Haiti was struck by a devastating 7.0 magnitude earthquake, the country is set to receive a major boost with the delivery of a US$16m 200km undersea cable which will link the country to the world via internet connectivity, thanks to Digicel. The project - which is being undertaken in conjunction with Columbus Networks, the undersea fiber-optic cable network provider in the Pan Caribbean Americas region, and Alcatel-Lucent - will dramatically expand the range and quality of fixed and mobile broadband services and content delivered throughout the country.
