Restoration / Time to repair

[edit]

The repairs needed due to the 12/26/2006 earthquake near Taiwan were expected to take about 3 weeks. However no publications from the SMW3 organization can be found or verified. It looks like it has taken much longer to repair, since around 3/3/2007 it looks like some parts of the cables have been put back into service. Is there a way to verify this?

Tense

[edit]

The text in the service disruptions section needs cleanup; the English tense / aspect usage is inappropriate given that as of now the events described is four years in the past, not presently happening or recent. Anyone willing to help? CecilWard (talk) 05:40, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Bandwidth

[edit]

How much bandwidth does this link provide? How full is this link. Critical information that is left out.

If you know the answers and can reference reliable sources, then please do add that information to the article. Thanks. WLDtalk|edits 05:58, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They should have put a little more thought into the abbreviation though. . . sounds like a watersports porn site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.110.74.73 (talk) 22:08, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Longest Cable in the World

[edit]

I just wanted to point out that the article about FLAG claims that said cable is the longest in the world™, although the length quoted in the article is shorter than SEA-ME-WE 3. Someone in the discussion about FLAG named a higher figure, so I was reluctant to change anything. Maybe someone with a clear insight into this business could give a definite answer. 92.194.93.80 (talk) 18:21, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bandwith, network administrator

[edit]

It's written that this cable is operated by TATA telco, this is false, the network administrator is SINGTEL, the netwwork is operated from TUAS.

It's written that this cable has a capacity of 48 waelength per fiber pair with a bit rate of 10G, in fact at the end of upgrade 4 (december 2009) the most loaded segment will have a capacity of 15 WL at 10G. The given number of 48 WL corresponds to the upgrade of the whole system which is split in 10 segments : 10 Norden-Penmarch 9 Penmarch-Sessimbra 8 Sessimbra-Alexandria 7 Alexandria-Suez 6 Suez-Djibouti 5 Djibouti-Mumbai 4 Mumbai-Tuas 3 Tuas-Perth 2 Tuas- Shantou 1 Shantou-Okinawa —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sopoli (talkcontribs) 16:46, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
