Telecom Fiji Limited is working on linking its exchanges around Viti Levu together to improve its network.

It’s laying high capacity fiber optic cables entirely around the island for a higher speed access network for its customers.

According to TFL Chief Executive Officer Mothilal De Silva, there is a gap between Korovou to Rakiraki that has no network coverage and they want this filled.

“It’s an ambitious target. But we are trying our best to complete it because that’s an un-served market. That area, there is a big potential. And also, we want to ensure redundancy.”

The project, which costs TFL a couple of millions of dollars is expected to be completed within this year.
