- Connectis Angola is growing its digital connectivity services in Angola, leveraging IP infrastructure to support the nation’s telecom expansion.
- The company operates in a market facing rural access gaps, rising infrastructure costs, and opportunities from satellite and fibre innovations.
Connectis Angola and the expanding telecom market
Connectis Angola is a digital connectivity company based in Luanda, Angola. It delivers reliable internet services, including infrastructure solutions, to support the country’s fast-developing digital economy. The company handles IP network allocations under ASN 327932 (169.239.77.0/24 range), recorded in AFRINIC’s database, which shows it runs its own subnet and keeps accurate network records.
Angola’s telecom sector is growing quickly. Wireless service usage recently hit 74 per 100 people, a huge rise from two decades ago. The government backs this expansion through fibre cables, satellite projects, and new policies that let private players compete. All this makes a big chance for companies like Connectis to help connect people and businesses.

Challenges, innovations, and future opportunities
One key challenge is the uneven spread of connectivity across Angola. Many rural areas still lack good internet, while cities like Luanda have options like fibre, mobile data, and satellite access. Angola launched its second communications satellite, AngoSat-2, to boost coverage in hard-to-reach areas. That kind of satellite support is vital for bridging gaps.
Another challenge is the rising cost of creating and managing digital infrastructure. Companies such as Angola Cables and Angola Telecom have invested in undersea fibre systems and local data hub services. Connectis operates in this same space, helping maintain gigabit-class links and network management in urban areas.
Innovation is underway. New projects offer services over cloud-like platforms, targeting growing needs in e-commerce, business services, and governments. Angola’s move into regional data hub development and better licensing for operators sets the stage for smart network growth. Connectis is well placed to benefit from these trends by offering scalable network solutions and expertise in IP infrastructure.
