FiberSense in the News
FiberSense engages APTelecom
Innovative Australian company, FiberSense Pty Ltd, today announced that it has engaged APTelecom LLC to engage prospective customers on its behalf, taking its paradigm shifting DigitalMarine™ service to the wider market.
DigitalMarine is a ground-breaking technological solution that offers previously unavailable real-time intelligence to submarine cable operators. The proprietary system, which installs in cable landing stations and operates without consuming fiber assets, remotely senses activity in the vicinity of a submerged optical fibre cable. Capable of detecting seismographic, geological and human activities that might affect the cable, as well as providing early warning of issues with the cable itself, DigitalMarine offers unprecedented levels of actionable information to the system’s operator.
FiberSense and Southern Cross Cable Networks
Deep-tech fibre sensing company FiberSense and subsea cable provider Southern Cross Cable Network (“SX”) have today announced an expansion of their relationship, with the implementation of FiberSense’s world leading DigitalMarine™️ subsea cable monitoring capability across SX’s New Zealand shore-end infrastructure.
The state-of-the-art implementation provides 24×7 monitoring of both shore-ends (from cable landing station to first repeater) as well as the terrestrial network connecting the two landing stations, providing total “always on” cover.
DigitalMarine 2.0
In an era where the global economy’s lifeblood increasingly runs through the veins of subsea telecommunications cables, the integrity and security of these infrastructures have never been more paramount. FiberSense, a pioneering company in the field of fiber optic sensing technology, today announced the official launch of generation 2 of its award winning DigitalMarine™ service, a revolutionary service designed to protect these critical assets from both accidental damages and intentional threats.
Intelligent Water Networks, Greater Western Water, Veolia and FiberSense trial innovative technology to address Water Loss
Fiber optic cables already in the ground could become an early warning system for leaking water pipes through a new technology being trialled in Melbourne.
Intelligent Water Networks (IWN) is a body that fuels innovation in the water industry on behalf of its members across the sector. It is funding the trial as part of a consortium that includes FiberSense, who have invented the technology, Greater Western Water, who own the infrastructure, and Veolia.
