The metric codes still represent the dimensions in mm, even though the imperial size codes are no longer aligned. Problematically, some manufacturers are developing metric 0201 components with dimensions of 0.25 mm × 0.125 mm (0.0098 in × 0.0049 in), [ 31 ] but the imperial 01005 name is already being used for the 0.4 mm × 0.2 mm (0.0157 in ...

The AAE-1 cable has a design capacity of 40 Tbit/s, across 5 fibre pairs, to supply the broadband market across Asia, Africa and Europe. In June 2017, it was launched for commercial services and was considered the longest submarine cable in the world, until it was surpassed by 2Africa .
Africa-1 is a 10,000 km long international submarine telecommunications cable system from France to the Middle East, through Africa.. The cable system, consisting of 8 fiber pairs, will be constructed by Alcatel-Lucent Submarine Networks (ASN) [1] and will utilize Alcatel's 1620 Softnode transmission equipment to allow optical transmission rates between 100 and 400 Gbit/s per line card.
Triaxial cable, often referred to as triax for short, is a type of electrical cable similar to coaxial cable, but with the addition of an extra layer of insulation and a second conducting sheath. Triax provides greater bandwidth and rejection of interference than coax, but is more expensive.
