Seaborn completes NY-São Paulo cable system, eyes Argentina
Submarine fiber optic systems developer Seaborn Networks announced that it has completed the final splice of Seabras-1, a subsea fiber optic cable connecting New York and São Paulo.
That means that the system is ready to go into service in August, as established in the company's own timetable.
Seabras-1 is the only direct point-to-point (PoP) submarine cable system between the metropolitan region of New York and São Paulo.
The system was under development for more than five years, with a total project cost of more than US$520mn. Seaborn is the developer-owner-operator of Seabras-1.
Spread Networks was picked as Seaborn's exclusive channel partner for sales to the financial vertical for capacity on Seabras-1.
Seaborn is now starting to extend the system from Praia Grande, on the coast of São Paulo state, to Buenos Aires in Argentina.
The Argentina-Brazil (ARBR) system will be jointly built and owned by Seaborn and Argentine Grupo Werthein.
