Bangladesh's telecommunications minister, Mustafa Jabbar, said recently that the government decided to connect Bangladesh with a third submarine cable to meet the fast-growing demand for data consumption
.
Mustafa Jabba said, "More and more new technologies are entering the market, driving the growth of data consumption, and we decided in principle to adopt a third submarine cable
.
”
Industry insiders attribute the growth in internet bandwidth consumption to the rollout of 4G services in the country, which is now at 950 gigabits per second (Gbps), compared to 550 Gbps
a year ago.
Mustafa Jabba said, "Bandwidth demand is skyrocketing, and our total capacity will be used up
within next year.
Therefore, we cannot provide the required bandwidth
unless a new source of capacity is developed.
”
Bangladesh was connected to the first international submarine cable system, the SEA-ME-WE 4 cable, in 2006 and to the second day submarine cable SEA-ME-WE 5 system in 2017
.
In early 2018, the government had asked the state-run Bangladesh Submarine Cable Company Limited (BSCCL) to work towards a third submarine connection
.
A BSCCL executive also revealed that another reason the government sought a third cable was that the SEA-ME-WE 4 cable was approaching its 20-year useful life
.
However, due to increasing maintenance costs, expanding the capacity of the submarine cable was not an economical option
.
At present, the Bangladesh government has communicated with several international consortiums to explore the feasibility
of accessing the third international submarine cable.
