AccessKenya Group has upgraded its internet core network by ten times as it gears to handle the huge bandwidth capacity upon the arrival of the Seacom and Teams submarine cables.

AceesKenya increased the internet core network from1000mb to 10000mb at a cost of Sh60 million. It is scaled to handle and best manage the large capacities of the international fibre cables and to ensure the core internet network is upgrade proofed for a number of years into the future.

Additionally, the company has purchased 2500mb of capacity on the Seacom fibre optic cable, which together with a similar amount procured on the TEAMS cable will give it a total of 5000mb of capacity to offer significantly faster speeds to its customers.

Currently, the entire country currently purchases 1,200mb on satellite. AccessKenya will therefore have more than 4 times the capacity that the whole of Kenya currently uses, and will retain its place as the largest bandwidth buyer in Kenya
