Submarine telecommunication connections

A special focus at Submarine Networks world 2022 will be dedicated to the high fibre count MINISUB 288 cable family, a rugged, compact fibre-optic repeaterless submarine cable with up to 288 fibres in a single central tube and multi-tube ultra-high fibre-count designs with up to 1728 fibres.

Cutting-edge installation capabilities

Prysmian Group executives will also highlight the NSW MINISUB® cable family, a rugged, compact fibre-optic repeatered submarine cable with unique features, such as high count of up to 48 powerful fibres, low conductor resistance of down to 0.6 Ω/km, installation in water depths up to 8,000 m and extraordinary operating voltage of 20 kV DC.

Prysmian Group’s Ashutosh Bhargava, Projects Submarine Telecom Director, will be among the featured speakers at the event. “Our return to the submarine communications sector in 2019 has seen our market share steadily increase over the past four years as more online content and faster internet speeds have led to increasing demand higher bandwidth and therefore for submarine communications cables,” said Ashutosh Bhargava. “The winning combination of our cables offering, and cutting-edge installation capabilities gives us a strong position in competing for turnkey projects.”
