GBS Leads First Desktop Study for a SMART Cable System to Antarctica

Bridging Technology, Science and Industry

Antarctica is an exciting frontier with many environmental, biological, and geological discoveries yet to be made; it is also a technological frontier as it is the only remaining continent without submarine fiber optic communications, relying on low-bandwidth satellite for information transmission.

The addition of a new SMART cable system could open a world of scientific discovery and international engagement.

GBS is pleased to support the U.S. National Science Foundation's objective to explore the feasiblity of a SMART cable system to McMurdo Research Station to further research and communications for the U.S. Antarctic program.
