China Cellular Global Restricted (CMI) recently activated the PEACE submarine cable, a significant milestone in the telecommunications industry. The cable, spanning 15,000 kilometers and connecting Singapore to France with extensions to Malaysia and other European countries, aims to provide fast, reliable, and flexible connectivity between Asia and Europe.
CMI, along with 11 partners, collaborated on the construction of the PEACE submarine cable. This distinctive cable solution demonstrates CMI’s commitment to offering impartial, flexible, and non-differentiated interconnection services to carriers, OTT service providers, and enterprises globally.

With the addition of the PEACE cable to its network, along with the existing AAE-1 and SMW5 submarine cables, CMI now boasts three routes between Asia and Europe, enhancing network availability and meeting increasing bandwidth demands. Additionally, CMI’s self-built ring systems in Singapore, Malaysia, and Europe, connected to data centers in the respective regions, enable the customization of highly scalable and flexible PoP-to-PoP solutions.
In recent years, CMI has expanded its global operations and cultivated relationships with large-scale customers, service providers, and enterprises. With over 90 submarine and terrestrial cable system resources connecting 78 countries, a total global transmission bandwidth exceeding 150T, 310 overseas PoPs, and self-owned data centers in major cities like Hong Kong, Singapore, London, and Frankfurt, CMI is well-equipped to provide comprehensive support to its international partners.
