About the Honotua Cable System

Honotua is a point-to-point submarine cable linking French Polynesia and United States. Landing at Huahine, Kawaihae, Moorea, Papenoo, Uturoa, and 1 more, it provides a direct fiber-optic path between the two countries, serving as both a primary data route and a redundancy option for neighboring cable systems. As an intercontinental system, Honotua plays a role in the global mesh of over 500 submarine cables that collectively carry more than 95% of international data traffic. Real-time monitoring by GeoCables compares current latency measurements from RIPE Atlas probes against baseline data to identify anomalies on this cable route.
