Corporate Vision TransmissionCo was founded with a clear and strategic mission: to deliver high-capacity, wholesale Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) transmission services across the African continent. With the sole focus of providing robust, scalable, and reliable optimal transmission infrastructure, the company operates primarily within markets where digital transformation and datadriven economies are rapidly advancing – such as East Africa, West Africa, and Southern Africa – expertly tailoring its solutions to meet the region’s growing demand for bandwidth and connectivity. Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing is an advanced optical transmission technology that allows multiple data streams to be transmitted simultaneously over a single optical fibre. The technology works by modulating multiple data channels into optical signals of different frequencies, which are then multiplexed into a single stream of light that is transmitted over a fibre optic cable. At the receiving end, a demultiplexer separates the combined signals back into their original data streams. This process allows for efficient use of the fibre’s capacity, enabling the transmission of large amounts of data over long distances. As a leading provider of DWDM telecommunications solutions, HardwareCo, a sister company to TransmissionCo, helps businesses to design, build, implement, and operate their own DWDM network of any size, anywhere in Africa. The company seamlessly integrates its solutions with the client’s existing infrastructure, offering them a smooth transition to advanced DWDM telecommunications solutions. These networks are tailormade, featuring the latest 100G and 400G Ethernet technologies to empower businesses with the highest performance, lowest costs, and the most flexible network platform for their business needs. What’s more, TransmissionCo’s scalable infrastructure solutions allow businesses to expand their operations with confidence whilst maintaining top-tier levels of reliability and performance. These unrivalled benefits are complemented by exceptional customer service; TransmissionCo boasts a dedicated support team working tirelessly to deliver personalised assistance and technical guidance, optimising the customer experience and ensuring that all telecommunications needs are met with the highest standards of efficiency and expertise. In a crowded market, TransmissionCo distinguishes itself with an unwavering focus on quality and client service. The company stands as the first and only operator in Africa to offer 800G services on its metro network, in addition to the 10G, 100G, and 400G services already provided in its markets. The introduction of 800G opens up new possibilities in the market, facilitating aggregation of 100G and 400G services into a single 800G pluggable and enabling clients to achieve state-of-the-art capabilities at extremely affordable prices. Africa is home to the world’s fastest growing online population, with millions of new users entering the online space each year due to improved mobile network coverage and accessibility. This surge is driving unprecedented demand for fast, reliable connectivity, and one company sits at the very forefront of this rapid advancement. Based in Johannesburg, Gauteng, TransmissionCo is a leading DWDM optical transmission company renowned for delivering high-capacity terrestrial wholesale bandwidth to clients across Africa. We took a closer look at the company below, following its recent recognition in the Small Business Awards 2025.

Where other companies occupying the space integrate additional higher-layer services – such as IP/MPLS, cybersecurity, e.t.c. – into their solutions, TransmissionCo will not provide any other services apart from optical DWDM transmission. Whilst some may find this limiting, this does in fact provide the company with an unrivalled advantage; while many competitors struggle to split their time and focus between numerous offerings, TransmissionCo streamlines its energy and expertise into developing and delivering one core product. From trailblazing DWDM telecommunications services across Africa to upholding the highest standards of quality and client service, TransmissionCo stands out as a significant player in the telecommunications landscape. Since its inception, the company has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to empowering businesses across the continent with robust, scalable, and reliable optimal transmission infrastructure. For this reason, TransmissionCo has been named Africa’s Best Emerging DWDM Technology Optical Services Provider 2025. Contact: Sjene Gould Company: TransmissionCo Web Address: www.transmissionco.net
