Who is affected
Countries where Havhingsten/CeltixConnect-2 (CC-2) comes ashore, how much of their submarine diversity this cable represents, and what our measurements into them show.
| Country | Dependence on this cable | Other submarine cables | What the measurements show |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ireland resilience index: 97 · resilient |
1 of 16 cables (6% of submarine diversity) | AEC-1, Beaufort, CeltixConnect-1 (CC-1) +12 more | average 37 ms over the last day vs 62 ms over 30 days - faster |
| Isle of Man resilience index: 59 · moderate |
1 of 6 cables (17% of submarine diversity) | BT-MT-1, E-LLAN, Lanis-1 +2 more | average 31 ms over the last day vs 39 ms over 30 days - faster |
| United Kingdom resilience index: 97 · resilient |
1 of 67 cables (1% of submarine diversity) | 2Africa, Amitie, Apollo +63 more | median 82 ms today vs 69 ms over 30 days (102 routes) - slower |
Dependence is structural (share of the country's submarine cables), not a traffic share: real traffic distribution across cables is not public.
Path analysis
Traffic kept the same route. Latency rose without a visible path change, which points at congestion or a fault on the existing route rather than a reroute.
Cross-probe verdict. Only one probe saw it. We treat this as a probable false positive and label it as such.
Timeline
- Alert 2026052901: warning - ratio 2.13x
- Alert #129 improving: 1/3 consecutive OK
- Alert #129 resolved: RTT 76.67ms (baseline 40.32ms), 3 consecutive OK
Detection method
Latency is sampled continuously from our probe network. An alert opens when round-trip time to a monitored endpoint holds above its rolling baseline, and closes automatically once it returns. Full method is described on the methodology page.
