What we will deliver
We aim to provide inexpensive, unlimited, ultra-fast broadband for all.
Pacific proposes to connect Australia, New Zealand and the USA with 5.12 Terabits/sec of capacity in 2013 (upgradeable to over 12 Terabits/sec). The Pacific cable will be 5 times the total current capacity of Southern Cross.
More for less
We will supply more bandwidth for less cost. We aim to be the price-setters in both
New Zealand and Australia.
Pacific proposes to use repeater technology over 2 fibre pairs with 64 wavelengths per fibre pair and initial traffic capacity of 40 Gigabits/sec per wavelength. Repeaters will be more modern and closer together than those of Southern Cross, allowing for a much easier upgrade path to, initially, 100 Gigabits/sec per wavelength.
We propose to run a most-direct cable from Australia and New Zealand to the USA, delivering lower latency which will provide significant competitive advantage for financial services sector and better browsing experience for all. It will enable easy connectivity to the Pacific network by providing access at major CBD POPs for customers, eg. Sydney, Auckland, Wellington, Los Angeles
