Moov Africa Gabon Telecom said all subscribers to its Duo Fibre Jet and Duo Fibre Super Jet services will see their FTTH power quintupled up to 500 megabits per second at no extra cost.

To make this possible, the first internet provider in central Africa has decided to multiply the speed by up to five times.

“Today we are reaching a new milestone with the exclusive launch in Gabon and the sub-region of the first FTTH connection with a speed of 500 megabits/s,” said Zouheir Jorio, director general, Moov Africa Gabon. “True to our commitment to the democratisation of broadband, we already offer the service in the country’s hinterland.”

In 2014, the operator became the first in central Africa to launch a 4G network. In 2016, it was the turn of the fibre to the home (FTTH) internet network to be launched on the Gabonese market before the operator experimented with the 5G network in 2019.

The announcement was made in the presence of the president of the Regulatory Authority for Electronic Communications and Posts (ARCEP), Lin Mombo.
In April, Moov Africa Gabon Telecom won the award for the fastest fixed network and the fastest mobile network in Gabon by Ookla via its Speedtest application.
