SEACOM telephone cable

SEACOM telephone cable is a telephone cable that links Hong Kong with Malaysia. Its telephone link was opened in 1967. Most people use the telephone cable to link to places throughout the world. It is a submarine communications cable and it usually works underground.

At one stage it also included the terrestrial radio microwave analogue link along the eastern coast of Australia, operated by the PMG Department which was the forerunner of Telstra. This communication link rejoined the undersea cable section at Cairns in north Queensland.
