Submarine Cable
The Internet has become a generator of great change in the order of human life that goes hand in hand with innovation and technological advances to make activities easier, more practical and more efficient. The need for digitalization is currently penetrating into all dimensions of life, especially in the future, submarine cable innovation is here to support the best Internet connectivity by maintaining Internet connectivity to data transmission. Submarine cables are one of the important infrastructures in providing better connectivity and connecting various regions in the world. This latest telecommunication infrastructure is made from optical fiber or copper coated with protective materials that are resistant to seawater including underwater pressure. The submarine cable is the backbone for the Internet and telecommunication services that we enjoy today. Here are the functions of a submarine cable:
- Transmits Data In Just One Second
In just one second, submarine cables can deliver hundreds of hours of High-Definition (HD) movie data, much faster than satellites which can only transfer the same data in 30 minutes. - Optical Fiber Becomes an Information Delivery Tool
About 97 percent of data is transferred through submarine cables, not satellites, and all because of a technology called Optical Fiber, which is inside the cable that allows the data to flow with the speed of light and makes the connection seamless. - Provides Faster Remote Connections
Making long-distance communication smoother, fast and stable connections from submarine cables can allow people from all over the world to quickly access information even in remote places.
As an integrated digital infrastructure company in Indonesia, Biznet is committed to bridging the nation’s digital gap with other developing countries. One of which is by launching its first submarine cable, Biznet Nusantara Cable System-1 (BNCS-1) in 2024, seamlessly connecting Java, Sumatra and Bangka Islands.
