NEC announced today the successful completion of the Kochi-Lakshadweep Islands Submarine Cable (KLI) optical submarine cable system in Southern India connecting Kochi and 11 Lakshadweep islands. Chinese telecom giant FiberHome has reached mass production for a record-breaking 13,824-core optical cable. This breakthrough addresses critical space constraints in urban infrastructure and bolsters China's domestic supply chain for AI and 5G/6G development. NEC, as one of the top three enterprises in the submarine cable market, succeeded in prototyping the world's first four-core optical fiber submarine cable in July 2022. In this press release, we announce the success of our transoceanic long-distance transmission experiment over 7,280 km using. Achieved using a newly developed standard 19-core optical fiber, equivalent to 19 standard fibers, low loss across multiple wavelength bands, and the development of an optical amplification relay function compatible with this fiber. The FOA created its Online Reference Guide to provide a more up-to-date and unbiased reference for those seeking information on cabling and fiber optic technology, components, applications and installation.
