Seaborn Networks, which operates the Seabras-1 cable system linking the US and Brazil, is establishing its first Brazil gateway in Equinix’s International Business Exchange (IBX) data center in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Seaborn Networks’ Brazil – US submarine cable is a four-fiber pair, 32 Tbps system that will offer the first direct route between Sao Paulo and New York City.
“Seaborn understands the importance of leveraging strategic points of presence in key metropolitan areas,” said Larry Schwartz, CEO of Seaborn Networks. “We selected SP2 as our first gateway from Brazil to the US because it provides us with access to the single largest concentration of carriers, content providers and other companies that require a direct route between Sao Paulo and New York City.”
