The project will construct a 380 km long fiber-optic cable on the Caspian Seabed, connecting Sumgayit (Azerbaijan) and Aktau (Kazakhstan). Construction is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2026. The project is being implemented by AzerTelecom from Azerbaijan and Kazakhtelecom from Kazakhstan.
