Telefónica to build transoceanic fibre cable station


19 May 2016 | Jason Mcgee-Abe

Telefónica International Wholesale Services is to build, what it claims to be, the first transoceanic fibre cable station in the mid-Atlantic. The fibre cables will connect Brazil to North America at an installation planned in Virginia Beach.

The Virginia Beach Development Authority has approved the sale of a 3.5-acre site to Telefónica for $735,000, where Telefónica plans to build a 20,000 sq ft data centre. The new infrastructure will improve communication reliability and deliver enhanced resilience by increasing the number of US landing points.

Telefónica plans to deploy a new submarine cable, BRUSA, stretching 11,000km in length linking Rio de Janeiro and Fortaleza in Brazil with San Juan, Puerto Rico, and Virginia Beach by early 2018. BRUSA will support ultrafast transmission capacity and increase end-to-end connectivity and availability of ultrahigh-speed broadband services.

Speaking exclusively to Capacity in March, Juan Revilla, CEO of Telefónica’s Wholesale Business Unit, detailed the opportunities BRUSA will bring and explained that the cable will be opened up to third parties.

“These companies cluster, and we plan to leverage the Telefónica announcement to bring more data centres to the city," stated Warren Harris, economic development director at Virginia Beach.

“Additionally, we anticipate even more interest because the stronger telecom infrastructure will have great appeal to businesses that require big data."

"Being the first transoceanic fibre cable station in the Mid-Atlantic is a differentiator for the City of Virginia Beach," said Matt Arvay, chief information officer at Virginia Beach. "Because we are progressive in our modernisation efforts, we were fully prepared for this opportunity. As cities compete to attract new businesses, the communications infrastructure is a key component, and this puts Virginia Beach in the telecommunications conversation globally."

VIRGINIA BEACH
Virginia Beach is on its way to being the first city in the mid-Atlantic with a station for a transoceanic fiber cable that will bring faster data transmission and high-speed Internet to the area.

Telefonica International Wholesale Services USA, a Madrid-based company providing service in 21 countries, has purchased a 3.5-acre parcel in Corporate Landing Business Park to build a 20,000-square-foot data center.

In March, the company announced the construction of a cable nearly 7,000 miles long from Brazil to Puerto Rico and Virginia Beach. The building near Dam Neck Road will house the cable, which will surface through a manhole at the Oceanfront.

There are similar data centers in Boca Raton, Fla., and New York, but none in the mid-Atlantic, according to Robert Humode, senior project development manager for the city’s Economic Development Department.

“That positions us very well,” Humode said.

Companies in the data industry tend to cluster together, Director Warren Harris added, so this could be an opportunity to attract more of these types of centers to Virginia Beach.

Harris said he’s excited about the land sale in Corporate Landing, which also is home to Liberty Tax headquarters and Green Flash Brewery. The park is owned by the Virginia Beach Development Authority, which will reap $735,000 from the sale.

The cable and data station are expected to be operating by early 2018.

Meanwhile, across the Atlantic the pan-European network and IaaS provider Interoute had some good news. The Spanish cloud computing provider Safe Computing is expanding into the company's data center in London. They had already been in Interoute's Madrid data center since 2014, and they have further plans to expand to Interoute's Berlin facility later this year. Last week, Interoute was busy in the southeastern corner of its territory, supplying 100G to Bulgaria's Sofia Connect and launching a new virtual data center in Istanbul.
