The Scylla submarine cable is a modern and advanced fiber-optic cable system that stretches across the Mediterranean Sea, connecting Europe and Asia. The cable spans over 1,000 kilometers and was designed to provide faster and more reliable internet connectivity between the two continents.
The Scylla submarine cable is operated by a consortium of telecommunication companies, including Orange, Telecom Italia Sparkle, and Telxius. The cable has a capacity of up to 8 terabits per second and is equipped with the latest technology to ensure optimal performance and reliability.
The cable system is named after the Greek mythological sea monster, Scylla, which was said to be located in the Strait of Messina, the same area where the cable lands on the Italian coast. The Scylla cable system is considered to be an important infrastructure project that enhances connectivity between Europe and Asia and helps to promote economic growth and development in the region.
