Hi Karel, I haven’t seen published pricing for Glo-1. You’d have to contact them for a specific quotation. AFAIK neither MainOne nor Glo1 is actually lit and delivering services yet.

Are there any prcing available for GLO-1 STM-1 and STM-4 from Lagos to London? By now MainOne prices should have come down drastically considering WACS coming next year?

Today TEAMS held a signing ceremony – where the various investors signed the Shareholders Agreement, Share Subscription Agreement and Capacity Agreement – The ship that lays cable sets sail on the 23rd of March and should be 30 days in water to Nairobi so the cable should have landed by end-April, early May. Full service is expected in June after technical and production tests have been concluded.

@Brian. Thanks! Quite a change from its initial proposed capacity of 40Gbps. Has TEAMs announced a go live date for their cable?
