IMEWE

IMEWE is a major intercontinental submarine cable system spanning 8 countries across North Africa, Europe, Middle East. With 9 landing points — including Alexandria, Catania, Fujairah, Jeddah, Karachi, and 4 more — it forms one of the backbone links carrying international internet traffic between continents. The Europe-Middle East corridor runs through the Mediterranean and Red Sea, one of the most strategically important — and vulnerable — cable routes on Earth. GeoCables monitors this system's performance through regular RIPE Atlas probe measurements, analyzing RTT patterns to detect degradation before it impacts end users.
