Seaborn, Infinera to launch submarine network services connecting US, Brazil

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 21 -- Seaborn Networks (Seaborn), a leading developer-owner-operator of submarine fibre optic cable systems, and Infinera have announced the launch of new submarine network services on Seaborn’s AMX-1 submarine network segment connecting the United States (US) and Brazil.

Powered by Infinera’s XT Series submarine network platforms, featuring Infinera’s Infinite Capacity Engine technology, Seaborn’s new network boasts modernised architecture and industry-leading spectral efficiency.

This enables the company to optically bypass cable landing stations and reduce network costs, according to a statement.

Seaborn Engineering & Operations Vice-President, Paul Cannon said: “Our longstanding relationship with Infinera and this collaboration have enabled us to cost-efficiently address our customers’ growing capacity demands with reliable, low-latency solutions purpose-built for subsea transport.”

To address global bandwidth needs across the Americas, Seaborn operates two leading cable systems, Seabras-1 and AMX-1, both powered by Infinera solutions.

Seaborn’s AMX-1 cable system provides transport, Ethernet private line, and IP services on a geographically diverse path from its Seabras-1 cable, connecting Rio de Janeiro and Jacksonville, Florida, to offer its customers high-capacity, low-latency connectivity services.
