Google’s Firmina Cable To Improve Access For South America
‘Connecting North to South America, the cable will be the longest ever to feature single-end power feeding capability,’ says Bikash Koley, vice president of global networking for Google Cloud. ‘Achieving this record-breaking, highly resilient design is accomplished by supplying the cable with a voltage 20 percent higher than with previous systems.’ By Donna Goodison June 09, 2021, 01:38 PM EDT
Google will build an open subsea cable system that will stretch from the east coast of the United States to Argentina to help improve access to its services, including Google Cloud, for customers in South America.
