For the first time, carriers can cross Africa with three different terrestrial routes
Central Corridor
The two central corridors offer a fully diversified route linking the Indian Ocean cables to the Atlantic Ocean taking the shortest path. Our customers can connect via Mombasa or Dar Es Salaam on the East coast and via Muanda or Luanda on the West coast.
Our upgraded regional and national backhaul networks ensure greater service levels for DIA, IPLC and IP Transit services within the region.We offer supplier redundancy as we have access to multiple Data Centres and multiple Cable Landing Stations.
Southern Corridor
The southern corridor is the most cost-effective route linking the Indian Ocean cables to the Atlantic Ocean. Our customers can access all landing stations on both sides of the continent in South Africa. Our upgraded regional and national backhaul networks ensure greater service levels for DIA, IPLC and IP Transit services within the region.
Twice in 2020, numerous organisations in Southern Africa experienced downtime in their internet connectivity, due to the break in the WACS cable system. At Liquid, customers enjoy protected connection end-to-end, ensuring that our customers were unimpacted.
West Africa Connectivity
West Africa network provides a cost-effective, reliable, and secure connectivity solution to all international carriers, multinationals, mobile operators and ISPs. Liquid also combines its unparalleled connectivity capability with innovative cyber security solutions such as DDOS protection.
At Liquid Dataport, we are continually working to ensure ubiquitous access to highspeed connectivity across the Western countries on the African continent.
A single network like no other
Since putting our first fibre in the ground in 2009, our high-speed cross-border network has grown to over 110,000km of fibre. It is the continent’s largest independently owned network, offering connectivity to all the main subsea cable systems that link Africa to the rest of the world.
Reliable, secure and multi-route circuits providing the best value for money in Africa
Let us de-risk your operations and you can expect a world-class service level – you choose whether to invest upfront or leverage our infrastructure with an opex model.
National and international terrestrial fibre combined with subsea cables, data centres and VSAT through investments of over $1.5 billion gives you a unique opportunity to offer high-quality services across the African continent. You and your customers can benefit from Layer 2 Ethernet services (EPL), MPLS, Dark Fibre, cloud on-ramp connectivity, colocated Points of Presence, NNI’s, and wholesale DIA services.

Partnerships
While our footprint on the continent is extensive, we are aware our customers have ambitions to expand their operations into newer territories like Europe and the Americas. As a result, liquid has partnered with numerous international organisations like Orange, Zayo, Unitas Global and Facebook to ensure that our customers don’t have to undergo teething problems like finding connectivity partners when they launch operations in new regions.
