A fiber optic backbone network is the central framework of a network that connects multiple sub-networks, systems, and devices using high-capacity fiber optic cables. It serves as the primary pathway for data transmission, linking critical infrastructure such as servers, switches, and data centers. In June 2016, over 6, 000 Km of NOFBI network had been laid across all the 47 Counties. Kenya has expanded its national fibre optic network to 13,590 kilometres in 2025, up from 8,900 kilometres in 2022, marking a.
