Published: January 1998
Product Code: R403-37Description The original transoceanic cables and those previously planned presented limited opportunity for suppliers, entrepreneurs and new carriers. But as the market shifts away from long haul transoceanic systems, new opportunities are developing in regional, national and specialized systems such as offshore platforms, unmanned undersea vehicles and sensor systems. The dramatic growth of submarine fiber optic systems is due to four major factors: Internet; increase in international traffic; deregulation, competition and changes in industry structure; and new technology. Each of these are described in detail in the report in addition to information that provides a comprehensive and up-to-date picture of the submarine fiber optic market. The reports contain the most complete list of systems showing the location, length, landing points, owners, speed, suppliers, installers and users.Table of Contents - 1.
