Fiber-optic cable networks are the invisible force driving the modern internet, with many in recent years being funded by internet giants such as Facebook, Google, Microsoft and Amazon. They carry almost all our communications and yet -- in a world of wireless networking and smartphones -- we are barely aware that they exist.
As the internet has become more mobile and wireless, the amount of data traveling across undersea cables has increased exponentially.
The goal of our project is to connect Asia to Europe through a fully protected fiber-optical DWDM system using the shortest possible geographical route to ensure the lowest latency (packet Round-Trip-Time RTT). Low latency and RTT is the main requirement of modern telecommunication systems. The proposed project provides a significant route length and latency reduction compared to existing routes.
Over 10 years ago, our team completed a similar project from Bulgaria to Georgia through the Black Sea. Now, we have determined that it is the best time to lay new infrastructure between Europe and Georgia, and beyond.
This phase Includes:
Our company has a preliminary agreement with Ooredoo in Qatar for the installation of a submarine cable in the Persian Gulf for $48 million with a purchase of $15 million of traffic upfront. This is so that Qatar will have fast and reliable internet for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
This phase Includes:
Our company has a preliminary agreement with the top internet providers in India and China for the purchase of our high quality internet traffic. China has successfully built a new fiber-optic cable system between China and Pakistan via the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and plans to connect to our system in Gwadar, Pakistan.
This phase Includes:
Once the main fiber optic system between Europe and China is completed, expansion will be made into India via Mumbai.
This phase Includes:
Our project has created an unique investment opportunity were we have made it possible to build a large fiber-optic cable system worth of more than 500M USD with an investment of 280M USD.
