Havhingsten/CeltixConnect-2 (CC-2)

Havhingsten/CeltixConnect-2 (CC-2) is a regional submarine cable serving 3 countries: United Kingdom, Ireland, Isle of Man. With landing points at Blackpool, LoughShinny, Port Erin, Port Grenaugh, it strengthens regional internet resilience and provides route diversity — crucial when nearby cables experience faults. 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.
