Abstract :
Market changes and new applications, as well as technological developments like SDH, optical amplifiers and WDM present new requirements for flexibility and upgradability on the wet part of a repeaterless submarine system. This in turn has generated the need for a development of a large range of submarine cables and associated components and services. All elements must be simple for lowest possible cost, but also coordinated and optimised against the system requirements.
