Telstra to Build Australia-Hawaii Cable Link

Stuart Comer writes on iTWire.com.au:

With Pipe Networks on the verge of committing to its own link from Australia to Guam, Telstra has announced plans for a cable to Hawaii, to reduce its dependency on foreign-owned cables.

The move comes as Pipe Networks is expressing confidence that its plan to build a cable, to increase competition on the route, will come to fruition. The key factor is securing commitment from carriers and ISP customers. Telstra may now be approaching these same customers, but unlike Pipe it competes with them so they may still lean strongly towards Pipe's offering.
