Terracom, an Internet access provider has rolled out an advanced wireless data network, the EVDO, to several towns in the country including Gicumbi, Muhanga and Huye.
According to an August 25 release signed by the Terracom Global Marketing Manager Victor Kinuma, the EVDO Mobile Broadband enables you to extend current and new enterprise applications to your mobile workforce.
'EVDO uses the power of the Terracom CDMA network to deliver up to 2.4mbps to you whenever you are on the network. The network offers the wireless security that ensures critical information only accessed by authorised users,' Kinuma said and added: 'Customers want a simple way to be connected, entertained and informed no matter where they are'.
Kinuma further said that Terracom will also demonstrate its latest technologies at the ongoing EXPO.
'It is one of the ways Terracom is fulfilling its pledge to bring to Rwanda, affordable and accessible communication, data voice and internet. It only costs Frw.35, 000 per month, after purchasing the EVDO card and you can have broadband internet on your laptop for example, with speeds of up to over 1 mbps' Kinuma said.
Meanwhile, while appearing on one of the Radio talk show recently, the State Minister for Communications Eng. Albert Butare appreciated the job done by Terracom in providing affordable communication to Rwandans.
"Look around and tell me which other country around here that has had the optic fiber deployment at the rate here, tell me where you enter your car and you put on your EVDO and access fast internet" Butare said.
