A few days ago  l spoke about TelOne’s new corporate identity and how the telecoms operator would be launching a couple of new products at an official corporate event.

TelOne Fibre To The Home (FTTH)

The star product has been the new TelOne Fibre to The Home offering. Initial deployment will be in Harare in areas like Mt Pleasnt Heights, Westgate, Madokero, Ruwa and Zimre Park. According to TelOne these areas have the capacity to connect over 15,000 homes. The TelOne FTTH has also been crossed over to Norton, Zvishavane and Ngezi.

What’s the cost?

There are 3 packages available. The entry package, dubbed the

 Starter Package,

 priced at $36 with speeds of up to 5 Mbps and a download cap of 20 GB. This

goes head to head with the ZOL Fibroniks package set at $39.

The Boost Package

is set at $70 for speeds of up to 10 Mbps and a download cap of 50 GB.

The Intense Package

  is the leader of the pack with unlimited downloads and is pegged at $118 with speeds of up to 20 Mbps. Installation of fibre will set you back $50.

TelOne Metro City WiFi Hotspots

TelOne has introduced WiFi hotspots around the city of Harare and 10 sites have been cited as being online already. These sites are

• Mupedzanhamo
• TelOne Centre for Learning
• Julius Nyerere Way
• Runhare House
• Cleveland House
• Roadport/ Amtec
• Montagu Heights
• TelOne Shop Harare Showgrounds

The Metro City WiFi project is being rolled to other parts of Zimbabwe, but, just like the FTTH we are yet to get definitive dates on when this will show up in other corners of Zimbabwe.
