Datagrid New Zealand has signed a contract with Alcatel Submarine Networks and OMS Group to establish the Tasman Ring Network. This new optical submarine cable system will connect Invercargill, located in New Zealand's South Island, to Melbourne, Australia.
The Tasman Ring Network is significant as it aims to enhance connectivity and improve the resilience of New Zealand's internet infrastructure. By linking the South Island directly to Australia, the project is expected to bolster data transmission capabilities and provide a more reliable internet service for users in the region.
As the project progresses, stakeholders will be keen to monitor the installation timeline and the impact of the new cable system on local internet services. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
