KETRACO Chairman Eng. James Rege says the fiber capacity will be deployed countrywide and further into the northern neignours on their power lines. Huge undertaking, with what they are planning with their lastmile strategy... Get Outlook for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef>

Just checking, is NOFB countrywide as well.., no..? If so, it's high time we map out our existing national Fiber coverage(reach/capacity) to avoid replicating what service providers have done all along, laying layers of Fiber alongside and atop each other to create an excessive glut of capacity that's going to waste at the moment.

Harry, Do you live in Kenya? What you just explained has been happening for years now since the cost of leasing long term is too expensive as compared to building yours. NOFBI is another poorly implemented cable laid using tax payers money since getting service on it is too expensive and takes long to fix in case of cuts. Look for the guys who dig the fiber and look at the number if existing cables and on further enquiry you find out only 10% per cable is in use.

Just because NOFBI was poorly implemented doesn't mean it's a bad idea, if it's being poorly managed it needs to looked at. These are not hard things to do. We can't everyone digging up the side of the road in the name of fiber.

I agree with Sidney. Operations and Management of a long haul public fiber network (including determining the most suitable commercial structure to have maximum impact) is something that needs to be handled with care. Putting such resources in the hands of stewards who don't care about service levels and are looking to siphon top dollar out of every inch of the fiber is a recipe for disaster - as has already been proven.

Barry, We need to find a way to share the infrastructure and focus more on services riding on the infrastructure. If NOFBI was well managed we wouldn't have the need to digging up new ducts onto of others only to utilise 10% in 20 yrs after deployment instead focus on services.

I think for such thing to succeed, we need such thing as a “Carrier neutral” fiber infrastructure service provider. Someone who’se core business, is offering local loops either at layer 2 or 3. Possibly with zero active devices. I suspect that the bigger problem is that because deploying fiber infrastructure is a hugely capital intensive exercise, those who get there first leverage on scale and financial muscle to roll out infrastructure, then use the same strength to remain in the lead. While government should not interfere, or be involved in active running of business, the least we would have expected, is for NOFBI to be operated in a manner that is fair and equitable, not as things currently stand. FYI in some places they installed 24 core fiber. 24! Regards, Collins Areba, Kilifi, Kenya. Tel: +254 707 750 788 / 0731 750 788 Twitter: @arebacollins.

Barry, We need to find a way to share the infrastructure and focus more on services riding on the infrastructure. If NOFBI was well managed we wouldn't have the need to digging up new ducts onto of others only to utilise 10% in 20 yrs after deployment instead focus on services.

Harry, Do you live in Kenya? What you just explained has been happening for years now since the cost of leasing long term is too expensive as compared to building yours. NOFBI is another poorly implemented cable laid using tax payers money since getting service on it is too expensive and takes long to fix in case of cuts. Look for the guys who dig the fiber and look at the number if existing cables and on further enquiry you find out only 10% per cable is in use.

Barry,
From what I understand the NOFBI was implemented fine the problem is that it's poorly managed, that can be fixed

If NOFBI was a poorly tax funded project as you state, what lessons have we drawn from such projects before we lurch on to others, to avert implementing more 'white elephant' ones.

Listers. I suppose Ketraco requires Fibre for their Scada system. Since fibre has very high capacity, it is reasonable to make such capacity available for other licensed operators. This has been in our national telecommunications /ICT policies since January 1997 when the first such policy was published. John Kariuki.

Hey Job,
I definitely stand informed, do we have an inventory someplace of our national Fibre infrastructure coverage to take stock of.

KETRACO is 100% Government owned and being a state corporation, it is regulated under the State Corporations Act, Cap 446 Are parastatals supposed to make any profits or render services at cost? What is their mandate in running the fiber network considering it's al tax payer's money?

Good points Sidney and Mblayo. In addition , i think the term countrywide is really misused. We are yet to achieve Universal Coverage when it comes to lighting up the country, does Country wide mean major trading centres. We need to take stock of NOFBI and many other similar initiatives that have been deployed by the public and private sectors in the last couple of years to see how we can improve going forwad.

For as long as the mindset behind laying the fiber is that of making huge sums by leasing premium routes at premium prices, we shall fovever be stuck in that moment where money is in the fiber, literally. A single fiber strand, can pass all the traffic thats passing through our networks in the whole country. How many more fibers do we really need at “wholesale” level?

Last Mile - will have to be using wireless technologies like 5G, the deployment outlines will be different from the current 4G/3G. Any of the listers with frequency licences, there could be an opportunity to just service the last mile. E.g. is Jio, India, it a data only service to be deployed.
Thanks,
