- In August, VSNL International announced its plan to build a new multi-terabit submarine cable system linking Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan. This investment follows the recent announcement by VSNL to build a new system from India to Europe that will provide connectivity to the Gulf region and the African continent. The intra-Asia cable, when combined with the Tata Indicom Cable System (TIC) and the TGN-Pacific cable system (both of which are built with 8 fibre pairs capable of supporting 7+ Tbps of traffic), will complete VSNL International's multi-Terabit capability from India to Asia and onward to the US.
