    #15: The Glass on the Seabed

    In today’s world, the need to stay connected in multi-dimensional ways have become so intertwined with our daily lives, few will stop to wonder HOW we are connected… whether it’s an online search; booking travel or watching a movie; making a financial transaction; playing an interactive game; conducting a video conference, or simply engaging in a chat… we expect the Internet to “just work!” Not that simple… The fiber optic subsea cable… made of thin strands of coated glass fibers, each measuring about eight microns (thinner than a strand of a human hair)…has literally changed the world! More reliable than satellites, subsea cables possess a much larger capacity, and is today transmitting more than 95% of all international data between continents and islands.  In this episode of Digging Into the Future, we speak with David Coughlan, CEO, SubCom, a leader in defining the undersea cable industry in designing, manufacturing, deploying and maintaining the cables that the world depends on in our daily lives. In everything that requires Internet connectivity and communications… telcos, and now OTTs, count on “the glass on the seabed” in order to deliver speed, capacity, redundancy, security and scalability to keep us connected every second of our lives… watch this episode to learn more!
