China continued to expand its optical fiber network in 2023, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
This was reported by The Xinhua News Agency.
Last year, the country installed nearly 4.74 million km of optical fiber cable, bringing the national total to 64.32 million km, said the ministry.
