Tata Communications Unveils New Cable System to Supercharge Next-Gen Global Connectivity

MUMBAI, India, June 5, 2025 /CNW/ -- In a major advancement for network connectivity for businesses across Asia and beyond, Tata Communications, a leading global communications technology player, today announced the integration of a new submarine cable system —TGN-IA2 — constructed by the Asia Direct Cable (ADC) consortium, into its existing network fabric.

Built to deliver seamless connectivity, scalable bandwidth solutions, and high-capacity data transfer across multiple routes, TGN-IA2 will enable customers — including enterprises, hyperscalers, and service providers — to leverage availability of diverse and resilient connectivity solutions from a single provider in their Intra-Asia networks.

Additionally, TGN-IA2 will seamlessly integrate with Tata Communications existing assets, facilitating connectivity solutions from Asia into key geographies, including the US; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA); and India.

Unlike traditional consortium-built systems, the independence of owning and controlling end-to-end capacity upgrades on TGN-IA2 will give Tata Communications unmatched flexibility and scalability, enabling faster provisioning and business readiness for customers. Enterprises can now enjoy a best-in-class network that adapts rapidly to changing needs, supports data-intensive applications such as AI, data centre-to-data centre connectivity and high-definition streaming — empowering businesses to compete and grow in the ever-transforming digital economy.

Finally, customers from financial services, e-commerce, logistics, and any sector that depends on fast, secure data transit between Asia and major global hubs, will experience:

• Improved latency for faster internet speeds and streaming quality
• Enhanced reliability and redundancy, ensuring seamless business continuity
• Greater network diversity with seamless interconnection between TGN-IA2 and the existing submarine cable system TGN-IA (Tata Global Network Intra-Asia)
• The foundation for future-proof digital services and applications

"At Tata Communications, we remain steadfast in our commitment to investing in cutting-edge subsea cable systems to meet our customers' growing demands for scalable, diverse, and high-performance connectivity solutions," said Genius Wong, Executive Vice President – Core and Next-Gen Connectivity Services and Chief Technology Officer, Tata Communications. "Whether you're a cloud provider expanding into Asia, an MNC seeking low-latency connectivity across continents, or a digital business scaling globally, TGN-IA2 is a foundation for your future. This latest enhancement to our network fabric will further strengthen Tata Communications' position as a global leader in smart, secure, and scalable connectivity and cross-border innovation."
