New cable to speed internet connections in Gulf
Ben Flanagan Mar 22, 2012
A new broadband cable serving the Gulf promises faster and more reliable connections amid growing internet use in the region. The link - which went live last month - lands in the UAE at Dubai and Fujairah, and is owned by India's Tata Communications. The cable is connected to Tata's US$800 million (Dh2.93 billion) worldwide internet-cable network, which has also recently been completed.
Tata said yesterday its TGN-Gulf subsea internet cable - which connects India, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and the UAE - went live on February 21.
