Introducing a New Era of Broadband in Uganda

Super Large Transmission Capacity
The network supports 80/96*10G/40G and 80*100G large capacity transmission, completely meeting the clients’ needs for transparent transmission, flexible scheduling, aggregation processing of large-granularity data services and service management monitoring.

Powerful Service Access Capability
All kinds of interfaces can be offered to connect with clients’ equipments, such as E1, STM-1/4/16/64, FE, GE and 10GE and so on, which provides maximum flexibility for clients to rent as much bandwidth as they want.

High Reliability Mechanism
The network is deployed with complete network-level protection and equipment-level protection, providing high Quality of Services for clients according to the SLA.

ZERO Initial Cost, Low Maintenance Requirement
With the powerful service access capability, there is no need for clients to put their own equipment at UETCL’s machine room, which decommissions the equipment installation and lowers the requirement for equipment maintenance.
