Ammon News - The new “Blue Med Sparkle” cable, which will connect Italy to France, Greece and various countries overlooking the Mediterranean, up to Aqaba in Jordan, is part of the “Blue Raman” submarine cable systems. These cables were created in partnership with Google and other operators, and will extend to Mumbai in India. BlueMed provides four pairs of private fiber, with capacity up to 25 terabits per second. Each pair has a diverse, high-speed and unique connection, and technological development in the region is expected to increase with it. Operators, ISPs, businesses and institutions in Jordan can benefit from it, with high-speed internet connections and advanced capacity solutions. BlueMed will arrive in Jordan inside the data center at the Aqaba Digital Centre. With BlueMed, the Aqaba Digital Center provides faster and more reliable Internet connectivity for businesses and individuals, in Jordan and neighboring countries.

The founder and CEO of the Aqaba Digital Center, Iyad Abu Khorma, said in press statements: “We are happy and welcome Bloomed to our data center. This represents an important achievement for the center to serve Jordan and neighboring markets.”

Abu Khorma considered that “the strategic cooperation with Sparkle and BlueMed will improve the status of the Aqaba Digital Center, enhance communication between Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia, and enable more initiatives and projects with our partners to strengthen these ties.”
