    Alcatel-Lucent has signed a contract with Libyan Post Telecommunications & Information Technology Company (LPTIC) to supply a nationwide fibre optic backbone network that will serve all of Libya.

    Under the terms of this agreement, which is valued at more than 90 million Euro, Alcatel-Lucent will deploy a fibre optic network throughout the country, linking all major cities with more than 4,400 kilometers of infrastructure.

    “This contract, which represents Alcatel-Lucent's largest agreement in Libya, is a major step forward for the Libyan telecom industry to offer next-generation services to their customer base,” said Olivier Picard, President of Alcatel-Lucent's Europe and South activities.

    LPTIC is a national operator providing fixed, mobile and internet related services throughout Libya.
