Telkom has brought Frogfoot, South Africa’s third-largest fibre-to-the home (FTTH) provider, on board as a third party fibre network operator as of 2 November 2020.
Frogfoot has an expansive fibre footprint in South Africa with more than 220 000 homes passed.
“We are proud of this collaboration with a credible fibre provider that has over 15 years’ experience in the telecoms industry,” says Gugu Mthembu, executive: brand and product segments at Telkom. “The partnership will widen our reach in the areas where OpenServe fibre currently does not exist, meaning Telkom’s competitive offerings will now become available to customers we couldn’t reach previously. However, we will not be leaving behind our existing customers with services running over the copper infrastructure within the Frogfoot footprint.”
Telkom will make a number of unlimited home bundles and unlimited home lite bundles available over the Frogfoot fibre network.
