SAEx International Ltd is developing a 108Tbps Submarine Cable Network of 25,000km connecting Africa to the Americas (SAEx1) and Asia (SAEx2) laid by @ASN_Comm
We're honoured by @capacitymedia's nomination of our CEO Dr Rosalind Thomas for her pioneering work on the @SAExCable among the top 100 most influential people in the wholesale carrier commmunity. Thank you @nitnat1989! https://t.co/6YcxC9O87M #Africa#submarinecable#telecoms
The already high price of internet access got even more expensive for Africans over the past year. It's the first reversal in price trends since @A4A_Internet began measuring prices 4 years ago. At @SAExCable we work on reducing African bandwidth costs.

Total global international #bandwidth has increased at a decreasing rate since 2014, but it accelerated in 2018. It was 393 Tbps in 2018, two-thirds of which has been deployed since 2014. #Africa growing fastest.

Thank you very much to @ASN_Comm for sending us this sample of an armoured #submarinecable featuring 8 fibre pairs just as the @SAExCable set to @ConnectStHelena. Saints will be surprised to see how thin those strings of glass are that will bring them into the Information Age.
Watch this 10-min report on #StHelena's desperate economic situation and its hopeless people filmed by @LordAshcroft during his recent visit to the island. The #submarinecable project is a great opportunity but support from @DFID_UK is needed to unlock it. https://t.co/vfJNdEKaeH
"In September 2018 @TISparkle has established a strong relationship with @SAExCable providing connectivity from #Brazil up to #USA and interconnection facilities in Brazil as well as technical and sales support in Brazil and North America." Zvika Caspy explained to @totaltelecom.
Our Zvika Caspy, VP Sales East Europe and Mediterranean, interviewed by @totaltelecom on the evolution of partnerships and business models in the #subsea sector ⬇
The majority of the cables in the Atlantic Ocean were put into service between 2000 and 2001. Like most things, subsea cables have a shelf life. And unlike wine, they do not get more expensive with age, quite the opposite.

An interesting overview of the thriving connectivity and data centre ecosystem of #VirginiaBeach which is becoming a global #submarinecable hub connecting five continents of which two, Africa and Asia, will be linked through our @SAExCable:
Read on p 6 of the Southern African Wireless Magazine's (@AfricanWireless) September/October issue how the @SAExCable with the help of @TISparkle will maximise South Africa's locational advantage and turn the country into a global hub: https://t.co/VZh25G95sX #subseacable#africa
"Several new sub-sea projects are announced both across the Atlantic and across the Pacific. Most notable one across the Atlantic is SAEx which will be 25,000 kms system and will connect the East Coast of the US to Cape Town, South Africa to Singapore and to Chennai, India."
These prototype satellites built by OneWeb and set for launch in February will be the first out of 882 which by 2022 will blanket the entire planet with broadband Internet. Through a gateway on #StHelena enabled by @SAExCable OneWeb could also bring broadband to #TristanDaCunha.
