VSNL Transatlantic (previously TGN Transatlantic) is a submarine telecommunications cable system transiting the Atlantic ocean. The cable is operated by India's Videsh Sanchar Nigam.
The cable system is constructed from two separate cables routed slightly differently, but both cables terminate in the same locality at each end. Each cable is constructed with 4 fibre pairs per cable, and each fibre pair supports 64 10Gb/s waves at construction, allowing for a total lit capacity (at construction) of 2 cables x 4 fibre pairs x 64 10 Gbit/s waves = 5.120 Tbit/s.
It has landing points in:
- Wall Township, New Jersey, USA (two cable landing points)
- Highbridge, Somerset, United Kingdom (two cable landing points)
