About the Nome to Homer Express (NTHE) Cable System
Nome to Homer Express (NTHE) is a domestic submarine cable network within United States, connecting 8 coastal and island locations including Emmonak, Homer, Hooper Bay, Igiugig, Naknek, and 3 more. The system provides essential telecommunications infrastructure for communities that would otherwise depend entirely on satellite or microwave links. Within the United States, submarine cables connect Alaska, Hawaii, and coastal regions where terrestrial fiber routes are impractical or prohibitively expensive. Real-time monitoring by GeoCables compares current latency measurements from RIPE Atlas probes against baseline data to identify anomalies on this cable route.
