Telecom Egypt and Naitel Jordan signed Wednesday a cooperation agreement to establish a submarine fiber optic cable connecting Egypt and Jordan and that will be dubbed “Coral Bridge.”
The cable will extend between Jordan’s Aqaba and Egypt’s Taba, and is aimed at fulfilling increasing demand on AI applications and data centers, capitalizing on the short distance between its two landing points.
The location of the cable is also outstanding given that Egypt is a major crossing between the East and the West, while Jordan is a main doorway to the Levant, Iraq, Arab Gulf, and the intersection between Asia and Europe.
