Moss, Norway

Moss, Norway is a submarine cable landing point in Norway (coordinates 59.4592°, 10.7008°). It serves 1 submarine cable system, making it a single-cable landing in Norway's international connectivity infrastructure.

Mosses are small, non-vascular flowerless plants in the taxonomic division Bryophyta sensu stricto. Bryophyta may also refer to the parent group bryophytes, which comprise liverworts, mosses, and hornworts. Mosses typically form dense green clumps or mats, often in damp or shady locations. The individual plants are usually composed of simple leaves that are generally only one cell thick, attached to a stem that may be branched or unbranched and has only a limited role in conducting water and nutrients. Although some species have conducting tissues, these are generally poorly developed and structurally different from similar tissue found in vascular plants. Mosses do not have seeds and after fertilisation develop sporophytes with unbranched stalks topped with single capsules containing spores. They are typically 0.2–10 cm (0.1–3.9 in) tall, though some species are much larger. Dawsonia superba, the tallest moss in the world, can grow to 60 cm (24 in) in height. There are approximately 12,000 species. Wikipedia

About the cables

• Norfest (2023) — Norfest is a point-to-point submarine cable linking Norway and Sweden. Landing at Arendal, Capri Strand, Drøbak, Egersund, Kristiansand, and 5 more, it provides a direct fiber-optic path between the two countries, serving as both a primary data route and a redundancy option for neighboring cable systems.
