“Led by China Telecom together with 13 Asia‑Pacific operators, ALC marks a major step forward for regional connectivity,” the company said. “With ALC now landed, China Telecom will continue to expand its global digital infrastructure, enabling seamless data flows for cloud computing, AI, and cross‑border innovation – building a smarter, more connected future for Asia and beyond.”
The 6,200km (3,852 miles) system runs from Hong Kong to Hainan province in China, Singapore, the Philippines, Vietnam, Brunei, and Malaysia. It offers 325Tbps of capacity, with China Telecom owning around 100Tbps of that.
