Founding project · 1996 → 2000
560 km
to the Ivorian border
Mali's first great fiber axis. Five hundred sixty kilometers of backbone laid, spliced, tested, and handed over under acceptance between 1996 and 2000. The trunk that opened the country to international fiber and that remains, three decades later, the spine of the national network. Everything TME built afterward rests on this first axis.
