NEC to Build Ultra-high Capacity Transatlantic Cable for Facebook

 NEC Corporation has been contracted by Facebook to build an ultra-high performance transatlantic subsea fiber-optic cable connecting the USA and Europe, according to NEC. The project will take advantage of NEC’s newly developed 24 fiber-pair cable and repeaters, which can transmit at 0.5 Petabit (1,000 trillion bits) per second.

“To support growing bandwidth, next generation subsea systems will offer Petabit-scale transmission,” said Dr. Bernhard Deutsch, VP & GM, Optical Fiber & Cable, Corning Inc. “To achieve the required performance, cabling processes must capture the advantaged optical attenuation and large effective area of our ultra-low-loss fibers.”"
