Reliance Jio Infocomm (Jio), based in India, has launched the Asia-Africa-Europe (AAE-1) submarine cable system.
The AAE-1 will stretch over 25,000 km from Marseille, France to Hong Kong, with 21 cable landings across Asia and Europe.
With diversified Points of Presence (PoP) in Asia (Hong Kong and Singapore) and three onward connectivity options in Europe (via France, Italy and Greece), AAE-1 will provide the requisite flexibility and diversity for carriers and their customers, Jio said.
