Waterfall Access Networks, or simply WAN, operates as a carrier neutral Open Access Network (OAN), facilitating fibre line
rental access to Internet Service Providers (ISPs) within Waterfall City.
This means that any acknowledged Internet Service Provider (ISP) who has an agreement
with WAN can gain access to and use our network infrastructure in Waterfall, within the agreed to
and prescribed WAN commercial and technical
parameters.
Waterfall Access Networks develops and provides cost-effective and technologically
innovative fiber optic solutions for telecom and non-telecom markets on the Waterfall City Precinct.
WAN provides support and maintenance to the OAN network in accordance with industry relevant service-level agreement
(SLA) requirements, the details of which can be made available on request.
WAN does not essentially operate as an ISP, but as an Open Access Network (OAN) line rental company; our network does not allow
for privileges to certain isolated ISP's, but rather an equal opportunity and 'playing field'
for all recognized and registered ISP's to provide their services over WAN.
WAN has brought in some of the world's best cutting edge networking technologies through DasanZhone GPON and Active Ethernet, an acknowledged global leader in Fibre
access transformation. Due to this, our network is geared to deliver some of the fastest transfer rates in Africa.
