Infinera upgrades Orange’s Kanawa subsea cable in French Caribbean
The Kanawa subsea cable which links the French Guiana with Martinique and Guadeloupe in the French Caribbean was launched by Orange in January 2019. The two pair fibre system is 1,746km in length and has been upgraded to provide up to 10 terabyte per second to users. This increased high-speed connectivity is expected to meet the rapid growth and demand for digital services in the Caribbean region.
