Cyprus Immigration Life: According to the Cyprus Telecommunications Authority, the submarine cable system KIMONAS connecting Cyprus and Greece will be completed and put into operation by the end of 2015.
According to reports, this submarine cable system connects the Cyprus Telecommunications Authority's landing station at Pentaskhinos and the cable landing station at MedNautilus in Chania, Crete, Greece. It is independently funded by the Cyprus Telecommunications Authority and is the first wholly-owned cable subsystem connecting Greece.
The Cyprus Telecommunications Authority stated that the construction of this submarine cable system will be in cooperation with the Italian telecommunications company Telecom Italia Sparkle. Its construction complements the current connection between Sicily and Athens, further enhancing the telecommunications authority's fiber optic network layout in the region. In the future, this system can also connect to Bulgaria's fiber optic network through Thessaloniki, expanding the telecommunications corridor in the Balkan Peninsula, ultimately reaching Egypt and other Middle Eastern countries through connections to Central Europe.
