Microwave Tower between Oujé-Bougoumou and Mistissini

completed

The project consists of setting up a new microwave tower, to allow two existing towers (Oujé-Bougoumou and Mistissini) to communicate with each other. This project would provide a transfer capacity between the two ends of the network, evaluated at 1 Gbps. The main objective of this project is to create redundancy that will allow the cities of Oujé-Bougoumou, Mistissini and Chibougamau to drastically lower the risk of Internet service interruptions and reduce the inconvenience they cause. The new tower will also be used to extend the cellular network on Route 167 which links Chibougamau to Mistissini.
