\n<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\nGlobal fibre optic network seamlessly linking markets across Asia, Middle East, the U.S. and Europe to meet rising demand for 24\/7commerce<\/em><\/p>\nNew York (NYSE) & Mumbai (BSE) \u2013 22nd<\/sup> March 2012 \u2013 <\/strong>Tata Communications, a leading provider of The New World of Communications, today announces the completion of the world\u2019s first round-the-world fibre optic cable network with the official launch of its Tata Global Network \u2013 Eurasia (TGN-EA) cable. The cable connects Europe to India, through Egypt, bringing increased capacity, resilience and enhanced communications links to not only the Middle East, but to the rest of the world.<\/p>\nThe completion of the final link across Egypt enables Tata Communications to offer its customers unique access to a wholly-owned express route cable from Europe to India with improved latency, redundancy and scalability. In conjunction with the company\u2019s recently launched TGN-Gulf these routes will cater to the increasing demand for voice, video and data services in and out of the Gulf region.<\/p>\n
Vinod Kumar, Managing Director and CEO, Tata Communications, says, \u201cOur customers, whether a European auto-manufacturer, an Asian hotel group or a large U.S. financial services firm, need to compete in global markets and are demanding faster and more reliable worldwide connectivity. Companies and carriers in developed and emerging economies require the confidence and security delivered by a wholly-owned network such as Tata Communications\u2019 TGN.\u201d<\/p>\n
The round-the-world ring also offers city-to-city connections in contrast to more traditional networks which only link cable landing stations. This approach is more cost-effective, flexible and provides a faster time to market delivery, as well as being easier to maintain and manage.<\/p>\n
The completion of the final TGN-EA link follows significant investment from Tata Communications in its global network in recent years. The TGN-EA cable system now interconnects Europe, India, the Gulf and Middle East seamlessly with the rest of the world while consistently providing higher quality bandwidth on a global scale. Tata Communications owns and operates the world\u2019s largest subsea cable network which reaches countries representing 99.7 per cent of the world\u2019s GDP.<\/p>\n
\u2018This a landmark moment for Tata Communications as we officially launch the world\u2019s first wholly-owned global submarine cable network as a complete and robust ring around the world.\u2019 concludes Kumar.<\/p>\n
The 9,280 km TGN-EA system which links Europe and India, running across the Mediterranean and the Middle East, uses fibre-optic technology based on microscopic glass fibres as thin as a strand of human hair, and offers customers the lowest levels of latency with RTD around 92 msec with speeds from 2Mbit\/s to 10Gbit\/s available.<\/p>\n
