Singapore is the primary submarine cable landing point for Southeast Asia, with over 25 cable systems connecting through the city-state. This extraordinary concentration of bandwidth makes Singapore the most connected location in the region, with direct, low-latency paths to virtually every country in Asia-Pacific.
Latency from Singapore covers Southeast Asia comprehensively: under 10ms to Kuala Lumpur and Johor Bahru, 30ms to Bangkok and Jakarta, 35ms to Hong Kong, 60ms to Tokyo, and 70ms to Sydney. The diverse cable routes ensure resilience against individual cable failures.
