Powering High-Performance Intra-Asia Connectivity
The TGN-IA2 system is purpose-built to serve enterprises, hyperscalers, and service providers with diverse and resilient intra-Asia connectivity. It offers multiple route options and built-in redundancy, enabling uninterrupted operations and high-speed data flow across key regions—including Asia, India, the US, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
Next-Gen Connectivity Tailored for a Digital-First Economy
Unlike typical consortium-led cable systems, TGN-IA2 gives Tata Communications full end-to-end ownership and operational control. This strategic advantage allows for faster provisioning, independent capacity scaling, and greater flexibility—enabling rapid adoption of advanced digital applications like AI/ML workloads, data center interconnectivity, and ultra-high-definition content delivery.
“At Tata Communications, we’re committed to building next-generation subsea infrastructure to meet the ever-evolving needs of global enterprises,” said Genius Wong, Executive Vice President – Core and Next-Gen Connectivity Services & CTO. “Whether you’re a cloud provider expanding in Asia or a digital-first enterprise looking for low-latency, high-reliability connectivity, TGN-IA2 lays the groundwork for your growth.”
