About the Alaska United West (AU-West) Cable System

Alaska United West (AU-West) is a submarine cable system operating within United States, with landing points at Ketchikan, Seward, Warrenton. It provides dedicated submarine fiber capacity between these locations, supporting telecommunications, internet access, and enterprise connectivity. Within the United States, submarine cables connect Alaska, Hawaii, and coastal regions where terrestrial fiber routes are impractical or prohibitively expensive. GeoCables monitors this system's performance through regular RIPE Atlas probe measurements, analyzing RTT patterns to detect degradation before it impacts end users.
