Why a cable into Asia?

(valeriepieris on Reddit)

There are more Muslims in the circle than outside of it. There are more Hindus in the circle than outside of it. There are more Buddhists in the circle than outside of it... The circle pulls all of this off while being mostly water.

Stage 1 - The International Cable and Extensions

Core segment of comprises the major trunk subsea cable network between Perth and the existing Matrix Cable and terrestrial Onslow-Karratha-Port Hedland cable.

New Cable Landing Stations (CLS) at Onslow & Perth, existing CLS Singapore & Jakarta. New Data Centres in Karratha & Port Hedland.

Stage 1 Total Length: 4562kmJakarta to Onslow: 2121kmOnslow to Perth: 1898km

Matrix partnership provides Singapore and Indonesian CLS, data centres and licenses/permits pre-built, significantly reducing schedule and capex.

Trans-Australia connection provides express low-latency solution direct between Asia and Australian east coast cities and data centres with Trident PoPs.

Onslow to Port Hedland: 543km

Stage 2 - Terrestrial Section

The Trident Terrestrial Network is a 72-core fibre cable from the Onslow CLS to Karratha and onward to Port Hedland.

Trident Karratha Data Centre – 300 rack certified Tier-3 facility and IT training centre. Smaller DC in Port Hedland for DR capability wholly in-region.

Stage 2 extends terrestrial cable southwards from Onslow to Perth following the coastal highway. This cable will service intermediate towns, intermediate mines, the NBN POI in Geraldton and SKA telescope.

When completed this will create a fully diverse optical fibre loop for 99.999% uptime “by land and by sea” between Perth and Onslow.

Stage 2 Total Length: 1379 kmOnslow to Perth: Coastline 1379km

Stage 3 - Carnarvon Basin Oil & Gas Platforms Loop

Stage 3 of the Trident Network is the Trident Carnarvon Basin Solution.

Specifically designed to service the offshore oil & gas platforms

leading-edge subsea cable technology via a loop cable network off the shore of Onslow continuing west of Barrow Island and landing at Port Hedland.

Also provides protection for mining services off terrestrial cable

STAGE 3 TOTAL LENGTH: 678KM

Enabling Competitive Communications

• Trident brings competition to Internet and telecommunications through the Pilbara – try to drive down the “Pilbara Premium” for communications by enabling and encouraging more service providers and carriers to establish presence in the region

• Completely independent diverse infrastructure from incumbent networks for primary or backup links

Page 25: Paul Brooks - Trident Subsea Cables - An update on the Trident Subsea Cables Project

Enabling Competitive Communications

• Completely independent diverse infrastructure from incumbent networks for primary or backup links

• Trident fibre network is integrated with new Pilbara-based datacentres

• Trident will work with client to design a bespoke network solution for hard-to-reach areas – incl extensions to Newman, Tom Price etc

• Higher bandwidth services available to service mining automation video and control infrastructure

• Lower cost for production networks, residential camps entertainment & communications solutions

You can help us….

• Much easier to adjust the route before the diggers are mobilized! – Where do you need it?

• Interconnect points can be added or adjusted. Lower cost to connect if we plan locations close to customer demand

• Seeking indications of interest in datacentre space in Karratha & Port Hedland.

• Trident hosting CIO/CTO Resources Planning Summit in August in Perth – nominate your CIO/CTO for invitation

• Email [email protected] to help us plan to help you while we build.
