As of now, Tata Communications was the only provider of the undersea cable system for India. Now Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Jio has launched world's longest 100 Gbps submarine, undersea cable system, which is stretching under 25,000 kms under the ocean. Termed as the Asia-Africa-Europe (AAE-1), this massive cable system runs from Marseille, Paris to Hong Kong, via several landing points spread across Asia and Europe.
This undersea cable system will now connect India with 100 Gbps direct connectivity and will deliver 40 Terabits to this region.
Passing via Europe, Middle East and Asia, AAE-1 will have Points of Presence (interface points) in Hong Kong and Singapore, and onward connectivity option in Europe via France, Italy, and Greece. In India, the landing point would be Mumbai.
