How do engineers repair a broken internet cable thousands of feet beneath the ocean? 🌊🤖
The internet connects the world through thousands of kilometres of submarine fiber-optic cables lying on the ocean floor. But what happens when one of these cables gets damaged deep underwater?
In this video, discover how engineers locate broken cables, use underwater robots and specialised repair ships, recover damaged sections, splice optical fibres, and test the connection before returning the cable to the seabed.
Explore the incredible technology and engineering that help keep the world's internet connected!
