Submarine Fiber Cable
Submarine fiber cables are underwater cables that are laid on the seabed between land-based stations to carry telecommunication signals over large stretches of the ocean. These cables, along with repeaters, are used to amplify the signals and to make long-distance communication easier. These cables are mainly used to connect two countries, islands, or continents and to ensure fast and reliable communication system between them.
