The project

Countries: 

Congo (over 10 sites), CAR, Chad and Nigeria.

 

Context: 

For each of its locations, the customer needs access to the world via Internet.

For its sites across the Congo, its access must be secured, highly stable and manageable from a private hub.

The cost must meet the budget of this international organization.

The solution should provide flexibility to support the changing needs of the Customer.

Customer's needs

  • A high-speed Internet access for 12 locations locked in Congo.

  • A Hub housed in the capital to enable them to oversee and administer the sites.

  • Use these links for Web-based application, messaging, videoconferencing, VoIP.

  • The possibility of making changes in allocation of flows and sites.

Afinis solution

  • A dedicated Hub for the customer in an Afinis’s teleport, solution avoiding UNICEF to invest in an expensive Hub.

  • A dedicated high speed internet access the UNICEF 12 sites, a V-SAT solution with dynamic allocation (TDMA) of bandwidth for better optimization.

  • Remote access to the Afinis teleport to insure the technical manager of UNICEF to monitor events in real time on its network.

  • Supervision 24x7x365 by Casablanca’s NOC.

  • Technical training "administration" for handling the solution.

Results

  • Technical independence from the infrastructure of incumbent operators.

  • High-speed Internet connection in areas with no telecom infrastructure.

  • UNICEF autonomy in the administration of its network and its applications.

  • A more stable platform following implementations and optimizations made by Afinis.

  • Warranty and maintenance of equipment sold or leased by Afinis.
