Preliminary Recommendation for a Polar Subsea Cable Route
A route close to the North Pole through the Western part of the Arctic Ocean will be the most favourable for the Polar Connect subsea cable planned to link Northern Europe to Asia and Northern America. This is a key finding from a study carried out by the Swedish Polar Research Secretariat as part of […]
Built-in resilience for Arctic subsea cables
With state-of-the-art fibre sensing technology, the two cables proposed to connect Northern Europe to Asia and North America will contribute to science and even warn against potential threats to the cable itself. Not only will Arctic subsea connections strengthen European digital sovereignty. Thanks to recent progress in fibre sensing technology, such new subsea cables will […]
