The paper is aiming to address concerns that some Indian International Long Distance Operators (ILDOs) that do not have any stakes in submarine cable systems are seeking clearance on behalf of the owners for laying or maintaining such cables in Indian territorial water or exclusive economic zones, and also for applying to set up Cable Landing Stations ( CLS) for such submarine cables. Lastly, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India ( TRAI) has extended the deadline for comments on its consultation paper called ‘Licensing Framework and Regulatory Mechanism for Submarine Cable Landing in India’. The availability of 400GbE services will allow customers hyper-scale low-latency connectivity directly between data centres in Sydney (Australia) and Los Angeles (US), with a new Auckland DC PoP due for implementation in 2023. To accommodate increasing and changing network traffic demands, Southern Cross’s eco-system also incorporates Ciena’s 54 platforms, providing the ability to deploy services from 100Mbps now up to 400GbE connectivity over applicable wavelengths. The 400GbE service runs on Ciena’s 6500 Packet-Optical Platform, powered by WaveLogic 5 Extreme coherent optics and is managed by the Manage, Control and Plan ( MCP) domain controller. The Amitie cable system is expected to go live in Q2 2023 with a capacity of over 320Tbps, connecting Boston (US) to Slough (UK) and Bordeaux (France).Īustralasia-based Southern Cross Cables has launched commercial 400GbE services on its Southern Cross NEXT system between Australia, New Zealand and the US. With 24Tbps of total expected capacity, the new route will also provide direct access to Bordeaux, which will serve as a landing hub for the trans-Atlantic Amitie cable system, connecting the US to both the French Atlantic coast and the UK. Zayo has strengthened its long-haul fibre network in France by deploying a 400Gbps route linking Paris and Marseille. By upgrading the network to ICE6, the consortium will be able to increase the life span of the cable by nearly 25% and deliver up to 7.4Tbps per fibre pair. The infrastructure is owned and operated by a consortium comprising Bharti Airtel, Global Transit (a wholly-owned subsidiary of TIME), Google, KDDI Corp, Telstra and Singtel. Infinera’s ICE6 800G coherent optical solution has been deployed to modernise and increase capacity on the transpacific Unity/ EAC-Pacific submarine cable system, which spans 9,620km and directly connects Japan and the US. Going forward, in 2023 the nine remaining segments of the submarine cable will be deployed, connecting 13 cities, namely: Calatrava, Romblon Pasacao, Camarines Sur Bulan, Sorsogon Calbayog City, Samar Palanas, Masbate Mactan, Cebu Maasin City, Leyte Claver, Surigao del Norte Kinoguitan, Misamis Oriental Camiguin Dipolog, Zamboanga del Norte Liloy, Zamboanga del Norte and Zamboanga City, Zamboanga del Sur. The project kickstarted in July 2022 in Subic (Zambales) and has landed at 20 sites so far. Globe has revealed that the 2,500km Philippine Domestic Submarine Cable Network ( PDSCN) – a joint project developed by Globe in partnership with Eastern Communications and InfiniVAN – is on track for completion in April 2023. The supply contract with vendor Alcatel Submarine Networks ( ASN) is already in force. Featuring an initial estimated capacity of 190Tbps, AMX3/Tikal will be ready for service ( RFS) in 2025. Named AMX3 by America Movil and Tikal by Telxius, the new submarine cable system is described by the partners as ‘the highest capacity undersea cable’ to connect Puerto Barrios (Guatemala) with Boca Raton (US), with an additional possible landing in Cancun (Mexico). Telxius has teamed up with America Movil to deploy a new submarine cable between Guatemala, the US and Mexico, thus accelerating the digital connectivity across LATAM.
