The invisible infrastructure of global connectivity

The Southern Cross NEXT submarine cable is the most modern and powerful cable system between North America, Australia and New Zealand and forms the main digital artery between the Pacific region and the Australian-New Zealand market. As the successor to the original Southern Cross cable, Southern Cross NEXT sets new standards in terms of capacity and reliability on one of the most important transpacific data routes in the southern hemisphere. Submarine cables such as Southern Cross NEXT form the invisible foundation of global data traffic, with over 99% of international data flowing through them rather than through satellites or the cloud.

Route & connection

Southern Cross NEXT connects Sydney (Australia) and Auckland (New Zealand) with Los Angeles (USA) and Fiji’s main island of Viti Levu as a further landing point. This routing makes Southern Cross NEXT the central cable system for companies that want to connect Australia and New Zealand directly with the North American market. With a total length of around 13,700 kilometers, the cable bridges the South Pacific on one of the region’s most strategically important data routes.

Technology & capacity

Southern Cross NEXT uses the latest fiber optic technology and offers a capacity of up to 72 Tbit/s, which represents a significant increase over the previous system and secures the growing bandwidth requirements of Australia and New Zealand in the long term. Essentially, these are the technological features:

  1. SDM (Space Division Multiplexing): The use of state-of-the-art SDM technology enables significantly higher capacity than older transpacific cable systems.
  2. Multiple landing points: Connecting Australia, New Zealand and Fiji creates flexibility and redundancy for users in the South Pacific region.
  3. The latest generation of fibre optic technology for minimal signal loss and optimized latency along the entire transpacific route.
