Frequently Asked Questions

Our internet service partners are:

Fibre internet has a much higher bandwidth capacity and offers greater reliability and more secure connections than copper infrastructure (ADSL/Diginet). The fibre optics network options are flexible and can provide scalable bandwidth to SMEs, corporates, Internet Service Providers and Mobile Service Providers. The ISP will tailor your package based on your business’ needs. The bandwidth options available over the fibre infrastructure ranges from 1Mbps to 1000Mbps speeds and can extend to 10Gbps on request.

It should also be noted that Telkom has made a public announcement in 2019 to discontinue support for ADSL and we recommend our tenants to migrate to fibre

The V&A Waterfront, as the landlord and approver of installations of electronic equipment within the precinct and associated buildings, has appointed Dimension Data as a partner to manage the fibre optic network.

A single trench policy has been implemented, which means that all service providers wanting to connect and provide fibre optic service to the V&A tenants will need to run their fibre optics connection through the existing V&A Waterfront fibre infrastructure.

Tenants will retain or contract their choice of network service providers, who in turn will be allowed access to the V&A’s fibre optic network (liaising with Dimension Data) to connect the tenant.
