Indian operator Bharti airtel has launched the Imewe cable system, which will open a second gateway for Airtel's customers to the European market from Asia via Mumbai in India. The deployment of the cable system will enable Bharti airtel to deliver the capacity to meet the connectivity requirements of Middle East and European countries to Asia transiting through India and vice versa. While the company's i2i and Seamewe4 cable systems already provide connectivity to these markets, Imewe will provide alternate routes for meeting the bandwidth requirements and diversity needs of the customers at any given time. The upcoming EIG cable system will also land in Bharti's cable station in Mumbai, India. The combination and connection between landing stations of Imewe, EIG, i2i and Semewe4 will allow Bharti airtel to offer enhanced redundancy and network resilience to customers in India, MENA and APAC regions.
