Installation, Maintenance and Protection of Submarine cables
Our Group offers its know-how and skills in the installation and repair of optical fiber submarine cables up to 8000m in depth as well as in the installation and protection of submarine cables in shallow waters.
Optical fiber communications is a central issue for the development of emerging economies and remote areas. The importance of the digital economy also requires that effective means are available for repair operations in case of failures.
