Tuvalu uses fiber optic cables and pigtails

Tuvalu's connection is delivered through branching unit integration into the Central Pacific Cable (CPC) submarine network, providing permanent high-capacity international fiber connectivity to the country. The Tuvalu Vaka Cable is the first international telecommunications cable connecting Tuvalu, being a branch of 688km linking Funafuti, the capital of Tuvalu, with the trunk of the Bulikula cable system, part of Google's Pacific Connect initiative. TUVALU celebrated the official activation of its submarine cable, the Tuvalu Vaka Cable, on 24 October 2025. Funded by Australia, the United States, Taiwan, New Zealand and Japan and supported by Google's inclusion of Tuvalu in the Central Pacific Connect system, the activation of the cable is a. Google's Product and Service Innovation Global Submarine Cable system director Shirshendu Bhattacharya addressed concerns about the reliability of a submarine fiber optic cable connecting Tuvalu while also acknowledging the threat of rising sea levels and emphasising proactive measures to mitigate.
