Facebook and Google will be building an undersea network of internet cables in an attempt to bring internet and faster connections to the Asian-Pacific region.
The undersea network of cables, which is being called Apricot, will aid in connecting Japan, Singapore, Taiwan, Guam, the Philippines and Indonesia to provide better broadband access and 5G wireless connectivity, according to Facebook.
“The Apricot cable is part of our ongoing effort to expand global network infrastructure and better serve the more than 3.5 billion people around the world who use our services every month,” Facebook said in a news release.
