Alpha2Zenith is proposing to build a new submarine telecommunications cable along the Atlantic coast of West Africa. The proposed Alpha2Zenith Submarine Cable System would include a new open-access fibre-optic submarine cable system which would expand international telecommunication services to countries on the Atlantic coast of Africa. The network would facilitate transmission of data, voice, internet and television signals allowing for inter country transmission of information, there by bridging the information gap between West Africa and the rest of the world.
