Tata Communications launches TGN-IA2 submarine cable to strengthen global connectivity
By Aman Shukla Published on June 3, 2025, 10:35 IST Tata Communications has integrated a new submarine cable system, TGN-IA2, into its global network infrastructure. Developed through the Asia Direct Cable (ADC) consortium, TGN-IA2 enhances the company's Intra-Asia connectivity with high-capacity data transfer, scalable bandwidth solutions, and multiple route options. This integration strengthens Tata Communications' ability to offer reliable and diverse connectivity across Asia, supporting the increasing demand for data-driven services and applications. The TGN-IA2 cable system connects seamlessly with Tata Communications' existing infrastructure, enabling direct and resilient data pathways between Asia and major global regions such as the United States, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and India. This connectivity supports critical digital services across a broad spectrum of industries, including financial services, e-commerce, and logistics, where low latency and secure, consistent performance are essential. Unlike traditional consortium-based cable systems, TGN-IA2 allows Tata Communications to maintain full control over end-to-end capacity upgrades. This approach provides operational flexibility and accelerates service delivery timelines, allowing customers to quickly adapt to dynamic business requirements. The cable's integration enhances the network's ability to support modern applications including artificial intelligence workloads, data center interconnects, and high-definition content delivery. TGN-IA2 also complements the existing TGN-IA (Tata Global Network Intra-Asia) system, expanding route diversity and improving the overall resilience of Tata Communications' infrastructure in the region. This development aligns with the increasing need for secure, high-speed connectivity across Asia and between Asia and the world's major digital hubs.
