ORCA

ORCA is a point-to-point submarine cable linking United States and Taiwan. Landing at Hermosa Beach, Manchester, Toucheng, 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. The transpacific route is one of the busiest data corridors in the world, carrying financial, cloud, and content delivery traffic between Asian and American markets. GeoCables monitors this system's performance through regular RIPE Atlas probe measurements, analyzing RTT patterns to detect degradation before it impacts end users.
