TelCables & euNetworks unite to boost Europe’s digital links
TelCables Europe and euNetworks have entered into a partnership to provide businesses and organisations across Europe with enhanced access to low-latency cable routes to international markets.
The collaboration will see TelCables Europe, a subsidiary of Angola Cables, offer customers interface access to its 33,000 km subsea cable network and a 50,000 km partner network. Customers will benefit from diverse and direct cable routes linking to over 930 on-net data centres and more than 230 cloud on-ramps distributed along the Angola Cables global backbone.
In turn, network operators, service providers, and enterprises using TelCables' services will access euNetworks' intercity and cross-border network, which currently spans 17 European countries. This network comprises 18 metropolitan fibre networks that are connected to a high-capacity 45,000 km intercity backbone across 53 European cities. EuNetworks presently provides direct links to 582 data centres in Europe and maintains an extensive data centre connectivity position, including operations in the major FLAP-D markets-Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin.
The agreement extends TelCables' existing network footprint, which already covers Latin America, the United States, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe, with the aim of enabling greater choice and improved connectivity options for organisations operating or expanding within Europe and internationally.
Expanding reach
Commenting on the new partnership, Marisa Trisolino, Chief Executive Officer of euNetworks, said the deal would allow both companies to address growing market requirements for reliable high-capacity digital infrastructure.
This collaboration with TelCables Europe opens new digital gateways to customers seeking to expand their services in a market facing accelerating demand for scalable, AI-ready connectivity. The agreement allows us to extend our value proposition to leading and strategic African players, creating further value for their customers and shareholders.
Samuel Carvalho, Chief Executive Officer of TelCables Europe, also outlined how the agreement supports the broader objective of turning Lisbon into a core connectivity hub linking continents:
Our collaboration with euNetworks strengthens our vision of positioning Lisbon as a true Atlantic bridge - connecting Central Europe to the Americas and Africa through a seamless, high-capacity digital ecosystem. By combining TelCables' extensive subsea and partner cable systems with euNetworks' expansive European footprint, we can deliver broader, faster, and more resilient network access for customers across Europe, Brazil, the U.S., Africa and the Middle East. Together, we're enabling enterprises and service providers to expand into new markets and accelerate digital transformation across both established and emerging regions.
Market access and infrastructure
The cross-collaboration means that customers of both companies will be able to access a variety of low-latency routes and scalable services needed by today's requirements for data-heavy applications, artificial intelligence, and enterprise cloud solutions. In practice, this will allow businesses and carriers to select network paths with sufficient diversity and redundancy to suit specific resilience or performance needs in a range of markets.
TelCables' network, supported by Angola Cables, gives direct connection options not just within Europe, but also between Europe, Africa, and the Americas. Angola Cables operates its own global backbone, linking major internet exchange points and data centres, with more than 30 points of presence and a partnership network that extends overall reach to over 50,000 km. The company's infrastructure includes three key subsea cable systems-WACS, SACS, and MONET-alongside the operation of two international data centres in Brazil and Angola.
euNetworks provides infrastructure including dark fibre, wavelengths, and Ethernet services to a customer base across wholesale, finance, content, media, mobile, data centre, hyperscale, and enterprise markets. The company maintains an inventory of fibre and duct-based assets tailored for high bandwidth applications and has highlighted its commitment to sustainability and environmentally responsible operations.
The partnership is expected to support continued growth and development of digital infrastructure across Europe and beyond, clearing a path for more direct, resilient, and flexible connectivity options for a range of businesses and service providers.
