Rotal Networks

Maritime and sub-marine Fiber optics

Submarine fiber optic cables are undoubtedly the optimal communication infrastructure to carry digital payloads, which are then used to carry telephone traffic as well as Internet and private data traffic between nations. The total carrying capacity of submarine cables is in the terabits per second, while the alternative satellites infrastructure typically offers only megabits per second and displays higher latency. With the constant rise in demand for high-speed communications, there is a constant surge in demand for more submarine fiber optics infrastructures. In addition, due to the constant rise in maritime work performed, for example for placing gas pipes, existing submarine fiber optic cables need repositioning, repairing and maintenance. Rotal Networks offers extensive experience in designing, building, and maintaining existing and new shallow water submarine fiber optic cables. With our state of the art equipment and skilled personnel Rotal can provide rapid response to damaged cables by rapidly locating the two ends of the damaged cable, reconnecting the fibers and cable, and then testing the cable, while providing comprehensive documentation.

Solution Components

Submarine Cables – fiber optic cables, which are laid on the bottom of the sea to provide a communication link between nations.
Submarine Closures - Closures made of heavy-duty stainless steel and hermetically-sealed cable joints for fiber optic submarine cables.
ODF (Optical distribution frame) - a passive device which terminates cables, allowing arbitrary interconnections to be made. This component is used to connect the submarine cable to the communication infrastructure on land.
