About Rwandatel

Rwandatel S.A., operating in Rwanda, Africa, was a significant player in the nation's telecommunications landscape, holding the Mobile Network Code (MNC) 11 under the Mobile Country Code (MCC) 635. While the company no longer exists, its historical impact on Rwandan connectivity should not be underestimated. Rwandatel aimed to provide a range of cellular services to the Rwandan population, competing with other networks operating in the country at the time with it’s 2G GSM network, a popular standard across Africa. Rwandatel's legacy serves as a reminder of the dynamic nature of the telecommunications industry in Rwanda. Often contrasted with current leading Mobile network operators in Rwanda like MTN Rwanda and Airtel Rwanda, Rwandatel played its part in the earlier phases of mobile adoption. Although now defunct, understanding it's place in the country's narrative surrounding MCC 635 and MNC 11 provides valuable context to the evolution of mobile communications in Rwanda.
