EllaLink Whitepapers
Submarine cable infrastructure is at the heart of global digital connectivity and understanding it requires going beyond the surface. EllaLink’s whitepapers bring together technical expertise and industry insight on some of the most critical topics shaping modern network design: from latency optimisation and route diversity to the scientific potential of subsea cables and the foundations of trusted, secure network architecture.

Diversity requirements & reducing the risk of traffic loss in your network
This paper seeks to review the diversity requirements in modern submarine cable systems and discusses how increased diversity can be built into new telecoms networks.
Addressing the impact of latency - How low can you go?
Together with our partner and DataCenter experts from Equinix, we will share the ultimate 5 steps that can be taken by organisations to optimise their networks for lower application/workload latency, whilst harnessing local digital and business ecosystem connectivity.
A collaborative innovation that uses telecom subsea infrastructure to help scientists in their understanding of our Planet
The EllaLink cable, between Europe and LatAm, has opened up an opportunity to integrate a scientific component into a commercial submarine cable system. The GeoLab concept was created as a partnership between EllaLink, EMACOM, FCT, and GÉANT to provide an infrastructure for the benefit of the global scientific community.
This infrastructure consists of a spare fibre pair built into the Funchal branch of the Ella-Link cable, which stretches out for 75km, southeast from the coast of Madeira, into the Atlantic Ocean. Along with the fibre, space, power, air-conditioning, storage, and internet connectivity will be made available to researchers at shore-based facilities. Collectively, this testbed service is called GeoLab.
