PIPE Pacific Cable (PPC-1) is a submarine cable laid by PIPE Networks. It runs from Cromer, Australia, to Piti, Guam.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.pipeinternational.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=5&Itemid=45 )〕 It resulted in huge international backhaul cost savings to Australian customers, for access to the US internet backbone,〔(More Bandwidth for Australia )〕 quoting up to "50% savings" versus existing cable operators.〔(ISPs Get Slice of Guam Cable )〕 ==Capacity== Quoting directly from PIPE International's PPC-1's Blog, substantial capacity will be available on the submarine cable network:〔(Welcome to the PPC-1 Blog )〕 "PPC-1 will be configured primarily as a two optic-fibre pair system however it will include up to an additional 4 optic fibre pairs providing the potential to install spurs extending to a number of strategic locations within and outside of Australia. The main backbone will be laid in deep water with landings in Sydney, Australia and Piti, Guam. The main segment of the network will cover approximately 6,500km. It will use the latest submarine wave division multiplexing to provide up to 96x10Gbps wavelengths on each fibre pair, producing a total of 1.92 Terabits of capacity." During the official launch, PIPE Network's CEO Bevan Slattery said the new cable would now deliver speeds at an even greater capacity than originally planned, 2.56 terabits per second in total. In September 2012, an upgrade was announced that would take the capacity available on the cable past the original design capacity of 2.56 terabits per second, to around 3 terabits per second. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pipe Pacific Cable」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
