Basslink

Basslink is a submarine cable system operating within Australia, with landing points at Four Mile Bluff, McGaurans Beach. It provides dedicated submarine fiber capacity between these locations, supporting telecommunications, internet access, and enterprise connectivity. Australia's vast coastline and distance from major population centers make submarine cables essential for both domestic and international connectivity. GeoCables tracks this cable using RIPE Atlas measurements from four probes in Minsk, Almaty, Tbilisi, and Jerusalem, comparing live RTT against historical baselines to catch performance shifts early.
