SUBMARINE CABLE ALMANAC
Sponsored By
ISSUE 35 // August 2020
FOREWORD Welcome to the thirty-fifth edition of the Submarine Cable Almanac. Firstly, I'd like to thank LLFlex for their Exclusive Sponsorship of this invaluable reference document. Please take a moment to visit their website - https://llflex.com -and check out what they've been working on. Since the last issue, we have added nine systems and updated an additional fifty-eight. You may also notice more of our continuous updates to this publication. Our analysts’ and database engineers’ R&D efforts are ongoing and aim to provide new tools and approaches for each SubTel publication. With each issue we plan to bring new data and techniques to you, our loyal readers. The data provided in this document is, as it ever has been, from the public domain and/or directly supplied by owners and suppliers. If you see a system that needs updating or know of an upcoming system that needs to be represented, please feel free to contact us directly at kclark@subtelforum.com. I would like to thank our sponsors and supporters, without you this document and the others like it would not be possible. I also hope that everyone has been able to stay safe and sane in spite of COVID-19. Our little industry is important to keeping the world going during this pandemic – and this Almanac is a great tool to learn about the world of submarine cables! Good reading,
Kristian Nielsen Vice President
METHODOLOGY SubTel Forum’s Submarine Cable Almanac was produced by the analysts at Subtel Forum Analytics, which is a Division of Submarine Telecoms Forum, Inc., and provides submarine cable system analysis for SubTel Forum’s Submarine Cable Almanac, Cable Map, Industry Report and Industry Newsfeed. SubTel Forum Analytics utilizes its proprietary Submarine Cable Database, which was initially developed in 2013 and modified with real-time data thereafter, and tracks some 400+ current, planned and out of service domestic and international cable systems, including project information suitable for querying by client, year, project, region, system length, capacity, landing points, owners, installers, etc. The Submarine Cable Database is purpose-built by SubTel Forum Analytics’ database administration team, which is powered by SQL and retained on a Microsoft Azure platform. Maps are produced with ArcGIS Pro, in the same format and visual style as SubTel Forum's Submarine Cables of the World print map. Data is collected from the public domain, and is the most accurate, comprehensive, and centralized source of information in the industry. At present, SubTel Forum Analytics’ Submarine Cable Database is chronicling the work of some 18 financiers, 477 cable owners, 22 system suppliers, 12 upgraders, 15 system surveyors and 25 system installers. In addition, it manages data for some 360+ projects, across 7 regions and 840+ landing points. To accomplish the quarterly Submarine Cable Almanac in line with SubTel Forum requirements, SubTel Forum Analytics conducted continuous data gathering throughout the year. Data assimilation and consolidation in its Submarine Cable Database was accomplished in parallel with data gathering efforts. SubTel Forum Analytics assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this report. The information contained in this report is provided on an “as is” basis with no guarantees of completeness, accuracy, usefulness or timeliness. Below is a list of defined acronyms and terminology used in this document: Capacity per Wavelength (Gbps) – The capacity of individual wavelengths, express in gigabits per second Design Capacity (Tbps) – The maximum capacity available on a cable system, expressed in terabits per second EOS – End of Service, the year a cable system is expected to reach end of life Fiber Pairs – The number of fiber pairs in the cable system Landing Points – The cities where a cable system comes ashore Length (km) – The total length of the cable system, in kilometers Owners – The names of all reported companies reported as owning a stake in the cable system Region – Which of the six regions (Americas, AustralAsia, EMEA, Indian Ocean Pan-East Asian, Transatlantic, Transpacific) the cable system is in RFS – Ready for Service, the year a cable system entered service System Cost (USD) – The cost for the cable system project in US dollars System Installer – The names of all reported companies that installed the cable system System Supplier – The names of all reported companies that supplied the cable system Upgrader — The names of all reported companies that have performed a cable system upgrade Upgrade Capacity (Gbps) – The wavelength capacity a systm was upgraded to Upgrade Year – The years a cable system received an upgrade Wavelengths per Fiber Pairs – The number of wavelengths/channels on a single fiber pair
