Submarine optical cable

Submarine optical cables are an important support for global communication and undertake the task of data transmission across continents and countries. With the continuous growth of data demand, submarine optical cable systems require solutions with higher bandwidth and lower costs. The 3D waveguide technology of Shenguang Valley Technology has great application potential in this field.


The 3D waveguide technology can be used to manufacture low-loss multi-core fan-in/fan-out devices, providing high-density and low-cost solutions for submarine optical cable communication. Through the high-density optical connections enabled by the 3D waveguide technology, the transmission rate and stability of submarine optical cables can be effectively improved, the loss of optical signals can be reduced, and the signal quality of the system can be enhanced. This can not only effectively meet the data transmission requirements of transcontinental submarine optical cables but also reduce the construction cost of the system.


Submarine optical cables have extremely high requirements for the stability and reliability of communication systems. The 3D waveguide technology of Shenguang Valley Technology can meet these strict technical requirements through its characteristics of efficient optical interconnection and low loss. Our solutions can not only promote the construction of the global data communication network but also improve the economic efficiency and sustainability of submarine optical cables, supporting the smooth progress of global information transmission.
