Attention Webmasters,

Due to scheduled subsea fiber maintenance on the SMW-5 cable route, international uplink traffic will be automatically re-routed via SMW-4 and terrestrial cross-border links (ITC).

  • Expected Impact: Slight 15-25ms latency increase for EU/US destinations. Local BDIX traffic will remain completely unaffected.
  • Window: Saturday 01:00 AM to 05:00 AM BST.

Please plan high-bandwidth data migrations accordingly. โณ
