Frequently asked questions about the Jupiter cable
Jupiter connects the Japanese landing points Maruyama and Shima via a main trunk to Hermosa Beach, California, with branches to Pacific City, Oregon, and Daet in the Philippines. For companies with sites in Japan, the US or the Philippines, Jupiter offers one of the few trans-Pacific routes with direct Philippines connectivity.
Jupiter reaches a design capacity of more than 60 Tbit/s, spread across five fiber pairs in the main trunk plus two additional fiber pairs each in the Oregon and Philippines branches. This makes Jupiter one of the higher-capacity trans-Pacific systems of its generation.
Jupiter’s main trunk entered service in May 2021, with the Philippines branch following in July 2022. The cable was built by TE SubCom and is operated by a consortium comprising Amazon, Meta, NTT, PCCW Global, PLDT and SoftBank. This broad participation of major technology and telecommunications companies ensures a solid user base.
This mainly depends on the landing points you need. Jupiter is a good fit if direct Philippines connectivity is required, FASTER offers an established route to Japan and Taiwan, and Tata TGN-Pacific provides maximum failover reliability through its self-healing dual-ring structure. Combining two systems is often the better choice to ensure genuine route diversity. SAVECALL advises on the right combination on a vendor-neutral basis.
Genuine redundancy only exists when the chosen cables use different landing points and physically separate routes, for example combining Jupiter for Philippines connectivity with another system like FASTER or Tata TGN-Pacific for Japan. The landing stations themselves should also be redundantly connected, so that a local outage does not jeopardize the entire connection. SAVECALL plans these concepts independently of any single cable operator, with a focus on actual failover reliability.
Access to capacity on Jupiter runs through direct wholesale partnerships with the consortium partners, as well as IRU or leased capacity agreements. SAVECALL negotiates these structures directly with the relevant carriers, without detours via reseller chains. Book a free consultation to discuss the right capacity solution for your business.
