As the Red Sea crisis continues, it is now spreading far beyond the surface of the sea to the seabed, and even the waters of the Red Sea are not immune. A few days ago, several organizations confirmed that at least four Asia-Europe communication cables passing through the Red Sea have been damaged, directly affecting 25% of the data traffic betwe...
The global submarine fiber optic cable market is currently showing an increasingly stable growth trend. It is expected that the submarine fiber optic cable market will continue to expand further in the coming period, with the continuous growth of data traffic and the continuous upgrading of communication base stations. Competition in the...
Analysis of Three Main Factors for the Growth in Demand for Submarine Power CablesAccording to Technavio's submarine power cable market research report, the annual compound growth rate of the global submarine power cable market demand is about 5.89% from 2016 to 2020. Among them, the fluctuation of raw material prices, the increase in demand...
Technical Difficulties of Waterproof CablesCross-linked polyethylene insulated (XLPE) submarine cable developed in the last century 80's, most for 220kV and below voltage level [1], its manufacturing and operating experience are far better than oil-filled submarine cable. Up to now, the highest-voltage XLPE AC submarine cable is th...
Submarine power cables do not harm marine lifeA new report from the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) addresses four questions about the impact of submerged power cables on fish and invertebrates, the principal one being whether electromagnetic fields (EMF) from underwater power cables attract or repulse fish or invertebrates.
The purpose...
History and Design of submarine cablesComposite subsea power and fiber optic cable.
Subsea cables (or umbilicals) have been in use since the mid-19th century, initially for telegraphic communications (including the pioneering 1858 transatlantic telegraph cable), and later for power transmission.
The development of subsea power cables has b...
