  • African Optical Cable Splicing and Manufacturing Plant

    African Optical Cable Splicing and Manufacturing Plant

    The new 14,000 sqm facility, Africa's largest optical fibre cable manufacturing plant, will allow for a significant increase in production capacity and scalability of high-quality optical fibre cables, a critical component in supporting South Africa's growing digital economy. We anticipate market needs, innovate and constantly refine our manufacturing processes and products to deliver faster speeds and more flexible. The South African Government has welcomed a major investment in the country's digital infrastructure, with the announcement of a R160 million expansion of the Yangtze Optics Africa Cable optical fibre manufacturing facility at Dube Trade Port, in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal. Construction of the 14 000sq m facility was completed in December 2024. Coleman Technical Industries chairman Asiwaju Solomon Onafowokan has launched a massive fibre-optic cable factory in Sagamu, boosting Nigeria's digital-economy capacity and reducing dependence on imported network infrastructure. YOA Cable is a joint venture between Chinese -owned Yangtze Optical Fibre and Cable.
