More bandwidth for Bangladesh!<br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite">
<p>The country was linked to a submarine cable in 2006 at a cost
of $35.1 million. The SMW-4 cable has a capacity to handle a 120
Gb bandwidth, of which Bangladesh currently subscribes to 24.12
Gb.</p>
<p>The country uses 23 percent of its capacity domestically.
Bangladesh Submarine Cable Company Ltd handles the lone
submarine cable. The existing cable landed through Cox’s Bazar
to Dhaka.</p>
<p>The demand for an alternative submarine cable has been raised
by the internet based entrepreneurs in last few years. The
government also had a plan to bring another submarine cable
through private sector initiative.</p>
