TGN-Intra Asia (TGN-IA) Cabe System Overview

TGN-Intra Asia Cable System (TGN-IA) is a private Intra-Asia submarine cable system constructed, owned and operated by Tata Communications. The TGN-IA cable spans 6800 km, consists of 4 fibre pairs linking Singapore, Hong Kong, and Japan with an additional connection to the Philippines, Vietnam and Guam, with a design capacity of 3.84 Tbit/s. The TGN-IA cable route was deliberately designed to avoid areas prone to earthquakes and other hazardous areas, such as south and east coast of Taiwan Island. The TGN-IA cable system was put into service on August 18, 2009 immediately after its commission test to facilitate capacity for traffic restoration caused by the Typhoon Morakot.
