The Meta wants to go to full in detail of internet infrastructure. The mother of WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram announced the “Waterworth” project on Friday. The American group wants to build the longest cable network “with the” highest available capacity “in the world. It is said to expand five large continents and expand more than 50,000 kilometers – the Earth is longer than the scope of the Earth. The eastern coast of the United States has been planned as an early point, then landing points in Brazil, India, South Africa and Australia.

In technical design, the group wants to focus on the resistance of the project. 24 pair of glass fiber cables are to be used, while 8 to sixteen pairs are currently common. “In deep water” lines will be placed at a distance of 7000 meters above sea level.

As Analysis home telegraphy Meta is already co -co -operative of 16 sea cables. It contains 2 Epherika systems, which attach the continent and first is the largest such system. There are network operators like participants Orange, Vodafone, China Mobile and Biobab/MTN. Waterworth will be the first relevant project that will completely control the meta itself. According to telezography, Google is involved in approximately 33 different relevant routes. China creates “apricots” together to avoid possible control by Facebook and Google. This is the first inner -Sanian underwater cable that belongs to Hong Kong.
