Who is affected
Countries where APCN-2 comes ashore, how much of their submarine diversity this cable represents, and what our measurements into them show.

1 of 17 cables (6% of submarine diversity) | Asia Pacific Gateway (APG), Asia United Gateway East (AUG East), E2A +13 more | no measurement today; median 113 ms over 30 days (9 routes) |
| Taiwan resilience index: 100 · resilient |
1 of 21 cables (5% of submarine diversity) | Apricot, Asia Pacific Gateway (APG), Asia United Gateway East (AUG East) +17 more | no measurement today; median 327 ms over 30 days (1 routes) |
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. Too few independent vantage points were watching this endpoint to reach a cross-probe verdict.
Timeline
- Alert 2026072201: warning - ratio 2.63x
- Alert #156 improving: 1/3 consecutive OK
- Alert #156 resolved: RTT 89.24ms (baseline 98.03ms), 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.
