TeleGeography’s Submarine Cable Map recently hit a new milestone: depicting over 600 cable systems.
As of September 2024, that’s a whopping 532 in-service systems, with another 77 planned.
The number of cable systems we study is constantly increasing. This is due to massive investment in this infrastructure—both along major routes and to small islands—as well as our ongoing efforts to track global systems in more detail.
The number of in-service systems is greater now than in any other year within the last two decades.
If you’re a regular on this blog, you're probably familiar with our submarine cable and cloud infrastructure maps.
But you may not know about the third tool in our interactive map tool belt: the internet exchange map.
The TeleGeography Submarine Cable Map is our longest-running map project. We started producing submarine cable maps in 1999, and we're still going strong 25 years later.
Just for fun, let’s compare the very first edition—called the Global Communications Cable and Satellite Map—to this year’s Submarine Cable Map.
If you liked last week's Submarine Cable Map reveal, you'll be stoked to hear that we've got another new map up our sleeve.
