ZTE has recently reached an agreement with the Kenya Government to help construct a large-scale optical network covering the Western part of
Kenya. After thorough evaluation of available solutions in the market, the Kenya Government opted to deploy a combination of ZTE's Unitrans Series WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) ZXWM M900 equipment and ZXMP S385, the new generation of MSTP (Multi-Service Transport Platform) device to construct the network. Ensuring that the transmission network will support
Kenya's future demand for network capacity, ZTE is helping deploy WDM technology as the backbone transmission of the broadband network, which is capable of supporting up to 400G/S and can easily be upgraded to 1600G/S. Upon completion, the national network project is expected to enhance the transmission capacity of
Kenya's telecommunications industry, providing high-speed, large capacity optical fibre transmission channel. It also lays a solid telecommunication foundation for
Kenya and its neighbouring countries, ensuring a reliable business communication infrastructure that could help support the country's economic development.
