We operate a next-generation network which spans from New York all the way around the world to California linking up key Asian markets (such as India, Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan) and Middle East markets (such as Dubai, Bahrain and Oman).

Our focus is to connect these Emerging Markets to established markets in Europe and North America, offering ultra-high bandwidth services up to 100Gbps, facilitating the mass movement of Internet traffic, OTT content, and enterprise data and Cloud computing services.

This infrastructure consists of five subsea cable systems operating on major global data traffic routes:

  • FA-1 – Trans-Atlantic route
  • Falcon – Middle East & Egypt-Asia (Indian sub-continent) route
  • FEA – Europe-Asia route
  • FNAL – Intra-Asia route
  • HAWK – Europe-Middle East & Egypt route
Our network is built to facilitate digital transformation with bandwidth services available to enterprises, OTT and content providers and telecoms carriers all the way up to 100Gbps throughout its length and breadth.
Each subsea cable system is protected with off-net capacity leased from 3rd parties and used for resilience in the event of a catastrophic outage such as a cable cut, and to provide fully-protected services to customers under certain product offerings. Off-net capacity is leased on systems such as SEA-ME-WE 5, SEA-ME-WE 4, SEA-ME-WE 3, BBG, I2I, Faster, SJC, TEN, APCN2, C2C, TGN-IA, Unity, TGN-Pacific amongst others.
