Southern Cross Cable Network (SCCN)

Southern Cross Cable Network (SCCN) is a cross-regional submarine cable connecting Australia, United States, Fiji, New Zealand. Its 9 landing points at Alexandria, Brookvale, Hillsboro, Kahe Point, Morro Bay, and 4 more bridge the networks of Oceania, North America, providing an important path for international data traffic. As an intercontinental system, Southern Cross Cable Network (SCCN) plays a role in the global mesh of over 500 submarine cables that collectively carry more than 95% of international data traffic. This cable is part of GeoCables' continuous monitoring program — RIPE Atlas probes measure latency around the clock, flagging anomalies when RTT deviates significantly from established baselines.
