SEA-SPINE: High-speed Submarine Backbone
for islands of the Aegean Sea
Scope
´SEA-SPINE’s overall objective is to construct 7 new submarine optical fiber links in the Aegean Sea, along with the required terrestrial and fiber optic networking works, towards:
1.substantially increasing network capacity
2.reducing network latency for critical applications
3.as well as ensuring traffic protection
through link redundancy and multiple path-based impact mitigation in case of link failures.
7 Submarine links
Link 1 (L1): Amorgos – Astypalea
Link 2 (L2): Astypalea – Kos
Link 3 (L3): Sifnos – Folegandros
Link 4 (L4): Karystia (Euboea) – Chios
Link 5 (L5): Chios – Lesvos
Link 6 (L6): Limnos – Thasos
