Connecting Mount Kilimanjaro
(Dec. 2023) On 13th December 2022, for the first time, high speed internet coverage was provided on Uhuru Peak, at the top of Africa's highest mountain at 5,985 metres above sea level, as well as rest huts along the way, including Horombo and Kibo. The high-speed network is part of the national ICT broadband backbone network project, built by Tanzania Telecommunications Corporation (TTCL). Huawei Tanzania donated most of the telecommunication equipment for the network deployment.
This spectacular video (below) explains how significant the achievement has been for local residents and tourists alike.
