Google and FASTER, a consortium of six international companies recently announced that world’s fastest fiber optic undersea cable, which connects the United States and Japan was complete and will offer access to up to 10Tbps (Terabits per second) of the cable’s total 60Tbps bandwidth. Today Google has announced that its new high-speed undersea cable that links FASTER from Japan to Taiwan is now online.
With the new cable, Google’s largest data center in Asia located in Changhua County, Taiwan will provide its millions of users across Asia to access its tools and services, at speeds of up to 26 terabits per second.
Google said that the new FASTER cable has enough bandwidth to support every person in Taiwan sending a selfie to a friend in Japan every 15 seconds. That would work out to 138 billion selfies per day.
Regarding the new FASTER cable, Google on the official blog , said: You may not notice right away, but this new cable should help Google products and services load more quickly across the region. It should also improve the reliability and consistency of this speedier experience, since the cable was strategically built outside of tsunami zones to help prevent network outages related to natural disasters.
