As stated by Esimatic: MTN (5G), Vodacom (5G), Telkom (5G), Cell C (5G). The technology is the fastest the provider states, not a measured speed.

## Internet breakout

Most of Esimatic's single-breakout plans for South Africa break out inside South Africa: ~15–25 ms to services inside South Africa. Latency is modelled from the distance between the destination and the plan's internet breakout country, not measured, and is shown as a band.
