99 percent of internet data are routed through undersea cables!

Ohhh!, well that could be your expression after reading the title. And to spice up your shock, only one percent of internet traffic is carried through satellite links compared to 99 percent of remaining traffic are carried through undersea cables. According to the resource from submarinecablemap.com, the data is drawn from Global Bandwidth Research Service.

This free interactive submarine cable map is based on the Global Bandwidth research, and depicts 188 active and planned submarine cable systems and their landing stations. You can select a cable route on the map to see the data about the cable, including the cable’s name, ready-for-service (RFS) date, length, owners, website, and landing points. You can also select the landing point to list all the submarine cables landing at that particular station.
