Namibian Fiber Optic Cable Price List

Fiber optic internet in Namibia ranges from around N$933 per month for residential packages to multi-million-NAD infrastructure projects for large-scale deployment. Residential and Business Internet PackagesMTC Namibia offers Fiber to the Home (FTTH) packages starting at N$933. 15 per month for speeds up to 75Mbps.

Installation involves connecting an Optical Network Termination (ONT) unit to the home and linking it to the fiber network, with no landline required.

Online offers home broadband starting at 15Mbps up to 45Mbps and business packages from 50Mbps to 100Mbps. Dedicated fiber connectivity pricing is available on request, and installation costs increase if the property is further than 70 meters from a network node. These packages typically include a modem or router, and some providers allow customers to use their own compatible equipment.

Speeds are advertised as download speeds, and some providers offer temporary speed boosts.

Infrastructure and Wholesale Costs

Telecom Namibia has invested heavily in national fiber deployment. For example, over 233,800 meters of fiber were installed across eight FTTx projects at a total cost of N$35. 5 million, connecting 7,838 erven.

The next phase has N$27 million committed. Fiber optic cable is imported, as Namibia does not manufacture optical cable locally. Costs include the cable itself, closures, splice trays, and civil works.

Prices for typical fiber packages for large-scale projects range from N$3 million to N$30 million, depending on the scope, cable type, and installation complexity. Payment for large projects often involves letters of credit confirmed by local or international banks, and pricing may be quoted in USD or EUR, with the Namibian dollar handled locally.

Summary

For home or small business users, expect monthly fiber internet costs from N$933 upwards, depending on speed and provider. For large-scale network deployment, the cost of fiber optic cable and installation can range from millions of Namibian dollars, influenced by distance, cable type, and project scale. Installation fees, contract terms, and VAT also affect the final cost.

This provides a clear picture of both consumer-level pricing and infrastructure investment for fiber optic networks in Namibia.
