Bitrate – Securing your Confidence in IT

Bitrate’s journey began 25 years ago with the introduction of a Network Test portfolio, initially offering cable testing solutions, fiber testing, troubleshooting, certification, and handheld tools for diagnostics.

As the company evolved, Bitrate partnered with several leading IT and cybersecurity service providers to distribute, market, and launch their products and solutions across the South African and Sub-Saharan African partner and reseller network. 

Throughout its development, Bitrate has maintained strong relationships with both service providers and resellers, building a robust distribution network that supports the sales and marketing of network test, network monitoring, cable test, and installation kit solutions throughout South Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa.
