Posted on: Monday, 14 April 2008, 09:00 CDT

General Cable has reported that its subsidiary, Norddeutsche Seekablewerke, has won its first submarine long-haul repeatered fiber optic communications link project.

The communications link will stretch through the Mediterranean Sea from Marseilles, France to Port Said, Egypt, with additional connections in Italy, Turkey and Cyprus. The project will have a length of more than 2,600 miles and will be installed at depths of up to 11,000 feet.

Norddeutsche Seekablewerke's (NSW) portion of this project is valued at approximately $40 million.

Valentin Jug, chairman of NSW, said: "NSW has been investing heavily to support the expansion of our product offering to include long-haul submarine fiber optic communications cables."
