By Teresa Huysamen, Wireless BU Executive, Duxbury Networking For much of Africa, the promise of ubiquitous broadband remains constrained by economics and terrain. Fibre is expensive and slow to deploy outside dense urban centres. Rights-of-way, long backhaul distances and limited budget often leave rural communities and enterprises on the edge, and multi-site operations dependent on satellite or mobile wireless backhaul to stay connected.
