The Manatua One Polynesia Fibre Cable is a submarine communications cable linking Samoa, Niue, the Cook Islands, and French Polynesia.[1] The cable is the first-ever fibre optic cable connectivity available to the Cook Islands.[1] The 3600-km cable was manufactured in the United States[1] by turnkey supplier SubCom,[2] a portfolio company of Cerberus Capital Management.[3]
The cable is an extension of the Honotua cable linking Hawaii and Tahiti.[4] It was declared "ready for service" in July 2020.[2][5]
