Hi Marshall and all,
About half of the existing cables running across the Pacific are damaged ...
It that realistic ? That seems like much more damage than anything I have heard or seen.
Yes, it's definetely true. Rgs, Masato

I'd like to see a list of damaged cables. I thought a lot of capacity was installed which did not go through Japan, so half the capacity across the Pacific would be most of the capacity into Japan. Or such is my understanding, which may be incorrect. Does someone have data? -- TTFN, patrick

If you have a broad view of damaged, this may be plausable. Remember that "damaged" does not mean traffic impacting in all cases, for instance... - one side of a redundant cable impacted, so no down time to actual traffic on 1+1 circuits. - Landing station in Japan has damage, or even simply no power and is running on generator. So perhaps all services are up, but it's now got to be kept fueled, and/or physical damage may require repairs in the near future. Due to great circle routing distances a lot of pacific cables go near Japan or have Japanese landing sites on their northern paths, even if going further south. I would like to see some more specific data about the types of damage to the cables, and expected time to repair. -- Leo Bicknell - bicknell@ufp.org - CCIE 3440 PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/
