"The combination of GD-1 and LN-1 will deliver a subseacable system with unparalleled capabilities. The new system will seamlessly integrate into our existing subsea meshedplatform, adding new routes and materially expanding our capacity. The LN-1 system can be further expanded tocomplement our capacity and diversity throughout the Caribbean. This investment shows our commitment to enablingconnectivity across the region and cements our position as a leading wholesale provider.”
“We are thrilled to combine forces with Liberty Networks to create a new subsea system that extends the previouslyannounced GD-1,” said Renato A. Tradardi, Gold Data’s Chief Executive Officer. “Combined with our terrestrialinvestment in Mexico and offering the lowest latency route, we are setting a new standard for connectivity betweenMexico and the US."
