The Big Secret of Internet of the world is found in London, there is a concert. You are observing it live from your Atlanta home. A network simply knows as a subsea cables strung across the dark, chilly ocean floor’s contours, transmitting images and sounds at the speed of light through strands of glass fiber as thin as your hair but hundreds of miles long, is what allows for that.
These cables, only about as thick as a garden hose, are high-tech marvels. The fastest, the newly completed transatlantic cable called Amitié and funded by Meta, Microsoft and others, can carry 400 terabits of data per second. That’s 400,000 times faster than your home broadband if you’re lucky enough to have high-end gigabit service.

Though satellite links are becoming more important with orbiting systems like SpaceX’s Starlink, subsea cables are the workhorses of global commerce and communications, carrying more than 99% of traffic between continents. TeleGeography, an analyst firm that tracks the business, knows of 552 existing and planned subsea cables, and more are on the way as the internet spreads to every part of the globe and every corner of our lives.
