Submarine cables, which are cables wrapped in insulating materials, are laid on the seabed for telecommunications transmission
.
At present, more than 90% of the world's international data is transmitted through submarine cables, which have been laid for 160 years
.
The first transoceanic telegraph cable was laid in 1854 to connect Newfoundland and Ireland, all thanks to the advent of guta glue, because metal wires wrapped in guta gum could be laid on the seabed, where the current could travel unimpeded without being dissipated
by the sea.
In 1854, British engineer Gisborner was responsible for laying the submarine cable
from New York to Newfoundland.
Due to the funding problems of the project, Gisborner came to New York to look for investment help and met the wealthy American Cyrus West Field
.
After investing in the New York-Newfoundland Submarine Cable, Field immediately devoted himself to the grand project of the Transatlantic Submarine Cable
.
Technically, the Trans-Channel Cable is completely different
from the Transatlantic Cable.
Laying the Channel Cable, which can be completed in a day in calm weather; With the navigation technology of ships at that time, it took more than three weeks to cross the Atlantic, not counting the laying machinery, and the weight of the entire transoceanic cable alone exceeded the carrying capacity
of any ship at that time.
How to understand? At that time, the British government provided Field with one of the largest warships of the Royal Navy, the Agamemnon, and the US government provided a battleship with a displacement of 5,000 tons, the "Niagara", and the two ships were specially modified to fit half
of the transoceanic cable.
