Africa Data Centres, a business of Cassava Technologies, has partnered with fibre infrastructure provider Oni-Tel Fibre Networks to strengthen connectivity across key facilities in Gauteng. The move aims to support growing demand for faster, more reliable digital infrastructure in South Africa.
The partnership will deliver high-speed, low-latency connectivity to Africa Data Centres’ campuses in Midrand and Samrand. It will run through Oni-Tel’s Infinity fibre interconnection platform. As a result, customers will gain access to improved bandwidth, faster performance, and secure network services.
Strengthening Digital Infrastructure for a Growing Economy
The new agreement focuses on building a strong and resilient network. It also connects directly to Gauteng’s major data centre hubs. Because of this, businesses can expect stable performance and high uptime for critical operations.
“As enterprises expand their use of cloud, AI, and data-heavy systems, they need reliable and scalable connectivity,” said Adil El Youssefi, CEO of Africa Data Centres. “By partnering with Oni-Tel, we are improving access to high-quality fibre infrastructure that supports business growth and innovation.”
Africa Data Centres operates one of the largest interconnected and cloud-neutral data centre platforms on the continent. In addition, this partnership strengthens its services by improving performance and expanding connectivity options for customers.
Faster, Scalable and Secure Connectivity
Through Oni-Tel’s Infinity platform, customers benefit from ultra-low latency and scalable network capacity. The solution also provides secure, carrier-grade infrastructure designed for modern business needs.
“Our partnership allows us to deliver premium fibre connectivity into key data centre hubs,” said Ellisha Gobind, Chief Commercial Officer at Oni-Tel. “Customers gain faster speeds, better performance, and the ability to scale as their business grows.”
The solution includes dark fibre options, which give customers more control over their networks. As a result, businesses can improve speed, increase flexibility, and maintain high levels of security.
Africa Data Centres’ facilities serve a wide range of industries. These include cloud providers, financial institutions, telecom operators, and enterprise clients. At the same time, the added fibre infrastructure strengthens Gauteng’s position as a major digital hub.
Overall, the partnership reflects the growing need for strong digital infrastructure across Africa. As demand for data and connectivity continues to rise, investments like this will play a key role in supporting innovation, business growth, and the continent’s digital future.
