2008 submarine cable disruption
2008年海底電纜中斷
Common occurrence 常見現象
According to Stephen Beckert, a senior analyst at TeleGeography, the events are far less exceptional than they seem because cable cuts happen all the time. Beckert argues that "only the first two cuts had any serious impact on the Internet," and this drew public attention to other cable cuts that would not normally have been newsworthy. According to Beckert, cable cuts happen "on average once every three days." He further noted that there are 25 large ships that do nothing but fix cable cuts and bends, and that such cuts are usually the result of cables rubbing against rocks on the sea floor.[33]
TeleGeography的高級分析師 Stephen Beckert 表示，這些事件遠沒有看起來那麼特殊，因為電纜斷裂的情況時有發生。貝克特認為，“只有前兩次切斷對互聯網產生了嚴重影響”，這引起了公眾對其他通常不具有新聞價值的電纜切斷的關注。據貝克特稱，電纜被切斷「平均每三天發生一次」。他進一步指出，有 25 艘大型船舶除了修復電纜切口和彎曲之外什麼也不做，而這類切口通常是電纜與海底岩石摩擦的結果。
According to Global Marine Systems, "Undersea cable damage is hardly rare—indeed, more than 50 repair operations were mounted in the Atlantic alone last year". While a cut in a cable crossing the Atlantic has "no significant effect" due to the many alternate cables, only a handful of Internet cables serve the Middle East. These disruptions are only noticeable because of the small number of cables.[34]
據Global Marine Systems稱，「海底電纜損壞並不罕見——事實上，去年僅在大西洋就進行了 50 多次修復工作」。雖然由於有許多備用電纜，橫跨大西洋的電纜被切斷“不會產生重大影響”，但只有少數網路電纜為中東提供服務。這些中斷僅由於電纜數量較少而引人注目。
