A submarine cable is a communication cable laid on or below the ocean floor. It comprises a set of wires that allow data to transfer from land to sea. In addition to the cabling itself, this network consists of other hardware components and infrastructure that enable large-scale communication. The majority of international data transfer occurs through submarine cable networks, despite the proliferation of satellite communications. Market database states that there are different sizes of cables for different marine environments and varying water depths. The fibers that carry the information help to prevent moisture and damage.
Recently, Google and Facebook are developing an undersea cable, which will allow more reliable Internet access in the Asia Pacific. It aims to connect Southeast Asia, Taiwan, Guam, and Japan. The Apricot cable system will have a length of 12,000 kilometers. It will have the capacity to support existing cable systems and meet rising data needs in the region with its initial design capacity of more than 190 terabits per second. In 2024, the new subsea cable will be ready for service.
According to the market database, Sparkle, an Italian provider, announced its partnership with Google to develop Raman and Blue submarine cable systems. While the Blue will connect France, Italy, Isreal, and Greece, the Raman will link Jordan, Djibouti, Oman, India, and Saudi Arabia. In addition to offering 16 fiber pairs each and supporting multiple fiber tenants, the two systems also provide a competitive Access Point to cable termination points, which creates a new benchmark in terms of diversification, scalability, and latency in these geographies.
