Reliance Jio to build two international submarine cable systems cantered India
By MYBRANDBOOK
The subsidiary of Reliance Industries (RIL), Reliance Jio Infocomm (Jio) is constructing the largest international submarine cable system centered on India.
Jio, in conjunction with several key global partners and world-class submarine cable supplier SubCom, is currently deploying two next generation cables to support the extraordinary growth in data demand across the region.
The India-Asia-Xpress (IAX) system connects India eastbound to Singapore and beyond where the India-Europe-Xpress (IEX) system connects India westbound to the Middle East and Europe. The systems will not only interconnect but also connect to the world's top interexchange points and content hubs for extension of service globally. IAX and IEX will enhance the ability for consumer and enterprise users to access content and cloud services in and out of India.
These high capacity and high-speed systems will provide more than 200 Tbps of capacity spanning over 16,000 kilometers. Employing open system technology and the latest wavelength switched RoADM/branching units ensures rapid upgrade deployment and the ultimate flexibility to add/drop waves across multiple locations, as per the company's exchange filing.
IAX system connects India with Asia Pacific markets with express connectivity from Mumbai and Chennai to Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore. The IEX system extends India's connectivity to Italy, landing in Savona, and additional landings in the Middle East and North Africa.
Both the systems are connected to the Reliance Jio Global Fiber Network beyond Asia Pacific and Europe, connecting to both the east and west coast of the USA.
IAX is expected to be ready for service mid-2023, while IEX will be ready for service in early 2024.
