Subsea Cable System Between the US and Brazil Ready for Operations
Seaborn Networks today announced its Seabras-1 subsea cable system is ready for operations. Seaborn’s Seabras-1 is a new 6-fiber pair, 72Tbps submarine cable system that is the first and only direct point-to-point system between São Paulo and New York.
Seabras-1 is owned jointly by Seaborn Networks and Partners Group, a global private markets investment manager with USD 66 billion in assets under management.
Seabras-1 offers a faster and more reliable carrier class route between the commercial centers of Brazil and the US than competing systems, with improved quality of service, a more resilient network architecture and 100% underground terrestrial backhaul in Brazil.
Seaborn’s proprietary SeaSpeed™ solution to the financial vertical will commence service in Q4 2017. SeaSpeed is the lowest latency route between the trading exchanges of New Jersey and São Paulo, with dedicated capacity from B3 in São Paulo to Carteret and to New York or New Jersey.
