Manatua One Polynesia Fibre Cable

The Manatua One Polynesia Fibre Cable is a submarine communications cable linking Samoa, Niue, the Cook Islands, and French Polynesia. The cable is the first-ever fibre optic cable connectivity available to the Cook Islands. The 3600-km cable was manufactured in the United States by turnkey supplier SubCom, a portfolio company of Cerberus Capital Management.

The cable is an extension of the Honotua cable linking Hawaii and Tahiti. It was declared "ready for service" in July 2020.
