Domestic Submarine Cable of Maldives (DSCoM)

Domestic Submarine Cable of Maldives (DSCoM) is a domestic submarine cable network within Maldives, connecting 8 coastal and island locations including Dhangethi, Dhuvaafaru, Eydhafushi, Hulhumale, Kudahuvadhoo, and 3 more. The system provides essential telecommunications infrastructure for communities that would otherwise depend entirely on satellite or microwave links. Submarine cables in this region contribute to a mesh of redundant paths that keep internet traffic flowing even when individual systems are damaged or under maintenance. Real-time monitoring by GeoCables compares current latency measurements from RIPE Atlas probes against baseline data to identify anomalies on this cable route.
