Amsterdam/London Underesea Cables

Hi,

I am trying to determine which undersea cables used for London/Amsterdam traffic are the most reliable - fewest outages due to shunt faults and other problems.

Looks like most of the traffic traverses the following systems:

Farland North

UK-Netherlands

Ulysses

Circe North

Concerto

My recollection, which is foggy, is that Circe North was rebuilt due to repeated shunt faults.

Feel free to contact me offlist so you can share the good, the bad, and the ugly. [:blush:]

I'm surprised repeaters are needed at all, the Channel is not that wide
after all.
