BringCom voltooit Acquisitie van Oeganda particulier netwerk service provider, Datanet
STERLING –(BUSINESS WIRE)– BringCom Incorporated, een toonaangevende leverancier van connectiviteitsoplossingen aan ontwikkelingslanden, kondigde aan dat het de overname van Datanet.Com, LLC in Oeganda heeft afgerond na de definitieve goedkeuring van de regelgevende instantie (Uganda Communications Commission). Datanet, opgericht in 1999, is een netwerkdienstverlener die actief is in Oeganda en netwerkconnectiviteit en veilige en betrouwbare wholesale-toegangsdiensten aanbiedt. Datanet was het eerste bedrijf in de Oost-Afrikaanse regio dat zich inschreef voor het MEF Services Interconnect-programma met als doel gestandaardiseerde Carrier Ethernet-toegangsdiensten en -netwerken op te zetten. Het lanceerde ook een EP-LAN-dienst via zijn Carrier Ethernet-netwerk tussen Oeganda en Kenia, die connectiviteit/operaties met meerdere vestigingen en LAN-uitbreidingen mogelijk maakt. Meer recent kondigde het bedrijf zijn MEF CE 2.0 E-Access certificering aan. Datanet levert de Oost-Afrikaanse regio MEF-gecertificeerde toegangscircuits en diensten en ENNI-verbindingen om het wereldwijde bereik van gestandaardiseerde Carrier Ethernet-diensten verder uit te breiden.
“De overname van Datanet weerspiegelt de strategie van BringCom om haar pan-Afrikaanse Carrier Ethernet-netwerk en wereldwijde connectiviteitsdiensten uit te breiden”, aldus Fabrice Langreney, President en CEO van BringCom. “Ons team is verheugd om onze nieuwe collega’s formeel te mogen verwelkomen in de BringCom-familie.” Datanet zal BringCom in staat stellen haar SDN/NFV-platform van de volgende generatie in Oeganda te testen vóór de geplande wereldwijde uitrol. Het SDN/NFV-platform van BringCom zal de connectiviteit van internationale luchtvaartmaatschappijen in Afrika beter kunnen ondersteunen en op concurrerende wijze aan de behoeften van ondernemingen in de regio kunnen voldoen.
