The MONET cable system is a subsea fibre optic telecommunications cable scheduled to be deployed at the end of 2016. Delays in the execution bring the conclusion to December 2017. It will connect the cities of Praia Grande and Fortaleza in Brazil with Boca Raton in the United States. TE SubCom is the selected provider for the project. The new cable will be 10,556 kilometres (6,560 mi) long and have six fibre pairs. It will have an initial capacity of 64 Tbit/s (Terabits per second). The cable will be operated by four telecommunications companies: Algar Telecom, Angola Cables, ANTEL, and Google.
