Papua New Guinea’s state-owned wholesale operator PNG DataCo says that it has completed an upgrade of its internet gateway with a 100-Gbps link that enables it to migrate traffic onto the PIPE Pacific Cable 1 (PPC-1) subsea cable.
Philippine fibre broadband provider Converge ICT Solutions says it is collaborating with Ribbon Communications to boost the capacity of its fibre backbone to terabit levels using Ribbon’s Apollo optical networking system.
Australian prefabricated modular data centre specialist company DXN announced that it has signed contracts worth a total of A$5.7 million (US$3.8 million) to build four cable landing stations for the East Micronesia Cable System (EMCS).
Global connectivity provider Telxius says it is opening its latest submarine cable route with the extension of SAm-1 between Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico.
One thought on “PNG DataCo upgrades internet gateway, shifts traffic to PPC-1”
Moving traffic off the Coral Sea 2 cable that is far more expensive than PPC-1. The PPC-1 cable allows PNG to send traffic north to the USA and Asia directly whereas the Coral Sea 2 cable sends traffic directly to Sydney not a lot of use if you consider all your traffic can be snooped by Australia.
