FLAG Telecom Loses Undersea Cable

As a reminder of how important undersea cable redundancy is, FLAG Telecom has lost a cable of its own in Persian Gulf. FLAG, a wholly-owned subsidiary of India's number two mobile operator Reliance Communications, says its Falcon cable was reported cut at 0559 GMT, 56 kms (35 miles) from Dubai on a segment between the United Arab Emirates and Oman.
