Project Waterworth involves a 50,000km ( 31,000 mile ) sub-sea cable, which is longer than the Earth ’s circumference.

It would be the longest to date that uses a 24 fibre-pair system, giving it a higher capacity.

More than 95% of the world's internet traffic is transferred through undersea cables.
