Meta announced that the most ambitious under -sea cable project called Waterworth, is expected to connect 5 major continents. The long -standing project with investing billions of dollars is notified on the company’s blog. Meta said they will strengthen the size and reliability of “the world’s digital highway through opening three corridors in the ocean with the high speed connection needed to promote the innovation of AI. worldwide “, Interesting Engineering On February 17 reported.
According to Meta, artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing all aspects of life. Therefore, Meta wants to take the lead to promote new technology. The Waterworth project will ensure the benefits of AI and other emerging technologies available to more people around the globe.
Waterworth is the largest underweight cable project that Meta has ever developed so far. The project will stretch more than 50,000 km, longer than the perimeter of the Earth. The cable network will connect 5 continents, becoming the longest underwarming cable project in the world, using the highest capacity technology today.
Meta said the Waterworth project will provide superior connections to the US, India, Brazil, South Africa and many other important areas. The project will facilitate stronger economic cooperation, promote digital integration, opening up technological development opportunities in these areas.
Meta has participated in developing more than 20 under the sea cable in the past decade. They also successfully deployed many 24 -pairs of cable cable lines instead of 8 – 16 pairs of strands as usual. The Waterworth project will help Meta upgrade the technical design to maintain cable durability. Meta also plans to maximize the installation of cable in the deep sea (7 km). They will use improved burial techniques in high -risk faulty areas such as shallow coastal water, to avoid damage from Chinese anchor and other risks. Meta is establishing a new department of the Reality Labs block to develop a robot -shaped robot equipped with AI technology, which can support limbs.
