Meta has officially launched 'Project Waterworth,' an ambitious subsea cable project spanning over 50,000 kilometers and connecting five continents, including the US, Brazil, India, and South Africa. This marks Meta's first ownership of subsea infrastructure, as previous partnerships did not entail ownership. The cable boasts 24 fiber pair technology, making it the longest of its kind globally. Notably, it will be installed at significant depths to mitigate risks from maritime hazards. The project's implications include improved digital communication essential for AI innovation, with India contributing to its funding and maintenance efforts.
Meta's 'Project Waterworth' is set to create the longest subsea cable, enhancing global connectivity while being their first owned subsea infrastructure, benefiting AI innovation.
The project connects five continents, utilizes innovative deep-sea routing, and aims to prevent damage from undersea hazards, ensuring high-speed connectivity for digital communications.
