ASSC-1, Huawei Marine Networks team up for Perth to Singapore cable

Private Australian submarine cable developer ASSC-1 Communications Group has announced the development of a new submarine fibre-optic cable system linking Perth to Singapore. Huawei Marine Networks, a joint venture between China’s Huawei Technologies and Global Marine Systems, will supply and install the ASSC-1 system, while Matrix Cable Systems will provide the Jakarta landing through its own cable landing station and will also work with ASSC-1 to manage the Indonesian permit process. Designed to cater for the exponential growth of internet and data traffic between Australia and the rest of the world, the four-fibre pair cable system will span 4,600km with an initial capacity of 6.4Tbps, to be delivered through 40Gbps technology, with the capability to be upgraded to 100Gbps in the future.
