Orange Marine cable ship Leon Thevenin helps keep Africa online
One of Orange’s fleet of cable ships, the Leon Thevenin, makes Cape Town Harbour its home port and is always ready to ensure business continuity for Orange Business Services’ customers, whether to embark on repair voyages or on missions to deploy cabling required to keep the African continent connected to the world. South Africa-based enterprise customers of Orange Business Services had the opportunity to tour the ship last week to discover how Orange contributes to the development of the broadband infrastructure in Africa. The tour, hosted by the Commandant of the ship Gerald Couturier and Vice President of the Middle East and Africa (MEA) Region for Orange Business Services Jean-Luc Lasnier, included a close look at how Orange Marine installs and maintains more than 170 000km of submarine cables in the world’s oceans, including 140 000km of optic fiber. http://www.biztechafrica.com/article/how-orange-marine-cable-ship-leon-thevenin-helps-k/7154/?section=internet#.UnJMAPk9948
