Maya-1

MAYA-1 is a 4400km submarine cable system connecting the United States, Mexico, Honduras, Cayman Islands, Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia, from Hollywood, Florida on the southern tip of the United States to Tolu, Colombia on the northern tip of South America.

The MAYA-1 cable system was ready for service in October, 2000.

Utilizing Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) and Direct Wave Access (DWA) with Erbium-Doped-Fiber-Amplifier (EDFA) technology, the MAYA-1 cable system has a system design ring capacity of 50Gbps of SDH capacity and 1910Gbps of DWA capacity after the upgrade in 2017.

The MAYA-1 consortium comprises: 

  • AT&T,
  • Sprint,
  • Verizon Business,
  • Tata Communications,
  • Cable & Wireless Communications (CWC),
  • Hondutel, 
  • CANTV,
  • Telefonica,
  • BT,
  • Orbitel, 
  • MarcaTel,
  • RSL Telecom (Panama)
  • etc.

The MAYA-1 cable system consists of two segments (S and T) and various subsegments. Segment S includes the whole of the submarine cable and associated equipment. Segment T includes all of the cable stations and related equipment.

The MAYA-1 cable system deploys an interconnected collapsed ring configuration that contains two fiber pairs with five branching units connecting to the landing points.

Segment S consists of two fiber optic pairs initially operating at 2.5 Gbps per wavelength in one interconnected collapsed ring configuration. The initial design capacity of each fiber pair is equivalent to 48 Basic System Modules (BSMs), with a maximum upgrade capacity equivalent to 128 BSMs.  The MAYA-1 cable system has been upgraded to support a system design ring capacity of 50G of SDH Capacity and 1910G of DWA Capacity.

The MAYA-1 cable system has seven terminal stations and segments T:

  • T1: Hollywood, FL, United States
  • T2: Cancún, Mexico
  • T3: Puerto Cortes, Honduras
  • T4: Half Moon Bay, Cayman Islands
  • T5: Puerto Limon, Costa Rica
  • T6: Maria Chiquita, Panama
  • T7: Tolu, Colombia
