The Asia Submarine-cable
Express (ASE) will be extended to Cambodia to provide reliable, high-capacity
communication infrastructure for the increasing number of multinational
companies operating in the Mekong region.
The extension is based on an
agreement established with Chuan Wei (Cambodia) Co Ltd whereby NTT Com will lay
Cambodia's first submarine optical fiber cable. The ASE will provide highly
reliable, high-capacity communications connecting Cambodia and other countries
in the Greater Mekong Sub-region with major locations elsewhere in Asia,
including Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan. ASE will enable NTT Com to provide
local customers with even higher quality Internet network services.
The 7,800km long ASE submarine
cable is routed away from the Bashi Channel and the south coast of Taiwan,
areas that frequently experience earthquakes and typhoons. The ASE also takes
the shortest route of any submarine cable connecting Japan to Hong Kong and
Singapore.
