[PNGNOG] Coral Sea Cable

[Mark Prior <mrp@mrp.net>]

OK so a question or two :-)

Anyone know when the new Coral Sea Cable will be available for service 
between POM and Sydney? Anyone going to be buying capacity on it and 
setting up peering in Sydney, if so which facility/IXP?

Given that Coral Sea is engineered as a "Y" with capacity between Sydney 
and POM and Sydney and Honiara but no direct link between POM and 
Honiara is that going to be a challenge? Probably less than ideal for 
the likes of Bmobile.

It will be interesting to see if anyone proposes to link the Kumul cable 
and the domestic Solomons cable.
