Tanjung Pakis is a submarine cable landing point located in Indonesia, a nation whose archipelagic geography makes coastal infrastructure integral to national and international connectivity. Nine submarine cables land at Tanjung Pakis, placing it among the more significant landing points in the country. The mix of cables terminating here spans both long-haul intercontinental systems and shorter domestic routes, reflecting the dual role the site plays within Indonesia's broader submarine cable network.
Among the most notable cables landing at Tanjung Pakis are Echo and Apricot, two transpacific systems with ready-for-service dates in 2025. Echo, stretching 17,184 km, connects Indonesia to Guam, Palau, Singapore, and the United States, establishing a direct transpacific corridor from this location. Apricot, at 11,972 km, links Indonesia to Guam, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, and Taiwan, reinforcing connectivity across the Asia-Pacific region. Together, these two systems position Tanjung Pakis as a point of entry for transpacific and intra-Asian traffic reaching Indonesian shores.
Echo is a 17,184 km submarine cable with a ready-for-service date of 2025. In addition to Tanjung Pakis, it lands in Guam, Palau, Singapore, and the United States, forming a transpacific route that connects Southeast Asia to North America.
Apricot spans 11,972 km and is also scheduled for service in 2025. It connects Tanjung Pakis to Guam, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, and Taiwan, providing broad coverage across the Asia-Pacific corridor.
Barat Timur Indonesia-1 (BTI-1) is a 4,500 km domestic cable with an anticipated ready-for-service date of 2028. All of its landing points are within Indonesia, making it a long-haul national connectivity system.
JAKABARE is a 1,330 km cable that entered service in 2009, connecting landing points in Indonesia and Singapore. It represents one of the earlier international links at this location.
Trans Global Cable System (TGCS) measures 1,200 km and is scheduled for service in 2026. Its other landing points are all within Indonesia, making it a domestic system.
RISING 8 is a 1,104 km cable with a ready-for-service date of 2026. It connects Tanjung Pakis to other points in Indonesia and to Singapore, adding another international link to the site's profile.
Jakarta Surabaya Cable System (JAYABAYA) is an 888 km domestic cable that entered service in 2018, connecting multiple points within Indonesia.
Link 3 Phase-2 is a 342 km domestic cable that entered service in 2005, connecting landing points within Indonesia.
JaSuKa entered service in 2006 and connects landing points entirely within Indonesia. No length data is available for this system.
Within Indonesia's 139 submarine cable landing points, Tanjung Pakis ranks in the top one percent by cable count, hosting nine cables. This places it on par with Jakarta, which also hosts nine cables, and behind only Batam with twenty. Compared to other notable Indonesian landing points such as Manado with eight cables, Dumai with seven, Makassar with six, and Kendari with four, Tanjung Pakis stands as one of the more densely connected locations in the country.
Tanjung Pakis functions as a multi-cable hub that simultaneously serves intercontinental, regional, and domestic connectivity. The presence of Echo and Apricot gives it direct links to North America, Japan, the Philippines, Taiwan, Guam, Palau, and Singapore, while JAKABARE and RISING 8 add further connections to Singapore. The remaining five cables — BTI-1, TGCS, JAYABAYA, Link 3 Phase-2, and JaSuKa — serve the domestic Indonesian network, distributing connectivity along national routes of varying lengths.
The combination of transpacific systems arriving at the same point as several domestic cables means Tanjung Pakis acts as a junction between international and intra-Indonesian traffic. In the broader submarine cable graph connecting Indonesia's 139 landing points to global networks, Tanjung Pakis represents one of the country's more active convergence points for both outward-facing and internal routing.
