Southern Cross has the potential to increase its total protected capacity to at least 4.8 Tbit/s using 40 Gbps technology that is already in use on 2 submarine cable systems.
Southern Cross is now committed to the full restoration of STM-16 and STM-64 2-Drop circuits on the North-South Ring.
Sections of our cable are over seven kilometres under the sea.
