Bangladesh Submarine Cables Company Limited (BSCCL) has announced that maintenance and fault repair work on the country’s second submarine cable, SEA-ME-WE 5, will begin at 10 p.m. on Thursday and continue until 6 a.m. on Monday. During this period, internet users across Bangladesh may experience slower speeds and partial disruptions. The state-owned company expressed regret for the temporary inconvenience.
According to BSCCL, the maintenance involves repairing a detected ‘shunt fault’ in the cable system located in Kuakata. Circuits connecting to Singapore through this cable will remain temporarily closed, potentially affecting services dependent on international bandwidth. However, the country’s first submarine cable, SEA-ME-WE 4, based in Cox’s Bazar, will remain operational to prevent a total internet outage.
BSCCL stated that the repair work is being carried out through an international consortium and is expected to be completed within the scheduled time, after which normal internet service will be restored.
