From Complexity to Connectivity: Lusaka Telecom's Backbone and FTTH Deployment

Large-scale FTTH deployment across multiple cities requires precision, coordination, and reliability

When Lusaka Telecom Solutions RDC SARL supported a tier-one operator’s fiber optic rollout across Kinshasa, Lubumbashi, Kolwezi, and Goma, the scope was significant — more than 2,000 km of backbone and access fiber spanning major cities in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The project presented operational challenges, including tight timelines, complex multi-city logistics, and the need to coordinate materials from multiple vendors while maintaining strict technical standards.

By partnering with Sun Telecom, a one-stop Fiber Optic Total Solutions expert, Lusaka Telecom consolidated 42 required fiber optic materials under a single supplier. This streamlined procurement, eliminated compatibility risks, ensured consistent technical performance, and provided one point of responsibility from delivery through after-sales support.

The result was a successful large-scale FTTH deployment that strengthened Lusaka Telecom’s position as a reliable partner for tier-one operators and expanded its capabilities in delivering complex fiber infrastructure projects across the region.
