Submarine Cable Outages: Last Five Years
This rolling archive covers the previous five calendar years. Published reports create Confirmed incidents; public-network measurements are shown only as Suspected and never prove that a candidate cable was physically damaged.
Network recovery and physical repair are recorded separately: rerouted traffic may recover while a confirmed cable fault still awaits a published repair report. This is an operational record, not a substitute for cable owner notices or carrier telemetry.
