Click on the map of European undersea cables above to enlarge

Not much has changed in the world of undersea fibre optic cables in 2018. The map above is a snap shot from Submarinecablemap.com a great resource that keeps up to date on all the undersea cables that are being built around the world. The longest continuous undersea cable fibre optic cable actually goes from Europe to South Korea and stretches for 38624 kilometres.

While this map probably won’t interest everyone, it is one of those maps we like to throw into the mix for educational purposes. These cables keep the internet flowing and without the internet this site wouldn’t exist.
