Inligo Networks through its Australian subsidiary Inligo Digital Australia will build, own and operate an open cable landing station in Darwin Australia.
The facility will have the capacity to land and support four international subsea cables with the first cable to use the facility being Inligo’s Asia Connect Cable System. The facility located near Fannie Bay will also provide a hub for Inligo’s domestic cable system called the Unite.
Inligo Networks completed the acquisition of the land required for the CLS at Fannie Bay in June 2024. Works have now progressed to ready the land for the associated building and earthworks.
The cable landing station design provides for capacity to locate subsea cable termination equipment, subsea cable power systems, and transmission equipment for connecting to domestic networks including the Unite Cable System.
The facility design is nearing completion and will include building access and management systems, secured permitter fencing, redundant and backup power, on-site engineering resources, facility management staff and 24×7 support.
The Cable Landing Station is expected to be completed in early 2026.
Darwin City Fibre Loop
Associated with the Cable Landing Station works is a Darwin City fibre loop under development connecting 8 locations around Darwin in a redundant ring configuration. The loop when completed will connect the CLS with major commercial sites in Darwin including Data Centre assets.
