Hatif Libya and Infinera partner to boost Libya's expanding telecommunications sector

摘要

Hatif Libya, a LPTIC subsidiary company, has signed a groundbreaking agreement with California-based Infinera to expand and develop Libya's optical transport network. The multi-million USD project will provide access to internet and mobile services in areas not reached previously by the network and improve the quality and reliability of services for all customers. The need for secure digital transport capacities has increased with the rapid development of the telecommunications sector in Libya and the growing demand for mobile phone services, internet, and digital transformation. The project leverages universal switching and transport capabilities, enabling the national network to dynamically switch traffic over diverse paths to ensure the continuation of services in the case of interruptions caused by physical damage to cables or power outages. To do this, Infinera will deploy Automatically Switched Optical Network (ASON) technology.
