Nawras is excited to be announcing its participation in the TATA Global Network (TGN) as the exclusive landing party in Oman for one of the most advanced and largest submarine cable networks in the world. This development means that Nawras customers will be able to benefit from connectivity to more than 200 countries through the latest technology.
The new state-of-the-art cable system linking the region to the rest of the world via the TGN will be used to provide Nawras customers with reliable high speed bandwidth to key cities worldwide. Using its own cable station Nawras will be able to access the new high-speed route to the globe and at the same time will add resilience and diversity to the communications infrastructure in the Sultanate of Oman.
Nawras chief strategy officer, Abdulla Issa Al Rawahy, explained, “This underwater cable is an exciting advance for Nawras which will enable us to provide our customers with a new pleasingly different way to get closer to their friends, family and business associates across the globe. Most importantly, we are delighted that for the first time, we will have end to end quality and cost control over our international voice and data traffic.”
Nawras, a Qtel Group company, joins Bahrain Internet Exchange, Qatar Telecom, Mobily of Saudi Arabia and Etisalat of the United Arab Emirates as regional partners who have combined to support this TGN and to assist in the communication development of the region.
During the official signing ceremony held recently in Dubai, Vinod Kumar, president and COO of Tata Communication thanked the group of leading Middle Eastern operators including Nawras, for their strong foundational partnerships. He spoke about delivering the ‘new world of communications’ to global and Middle Eastern companies.
First to launch an EDGE network in 2005 and first to launch its 3G+ network in 2007, Nawras is now delighted to sign this agreement for an underwater global cable network, supporting its mission to be the communications provider and employer of choice in Oman.
