Boston-based Pioneer Consulting, a leading international submarine cable consulting firm said it has supervised the relocation of two shore-ends for the telecommunications service provider Dhivehi Raajjeyge Gulhun Plc (Dhiraagu) on its Dhiraagu undersea cable system (DSCS). Company officials said they worked with Dhiraagu of Maldives and its entire team to ensure that the DSCS system continues to serve the people of the Maldives. Dhiraagu has worked hard to develop a solid telecom infrastructure to support the continued economic growth of Maldives.
DSCS cable system is a four-fiber pair unrepeated telecommunications system installed in 2006 in the Republic of Maldives. The cable system has a 12.14km segment from Malé to Hulhumalé and a 5.9km segment from Malé to Villingili. Due to the planned construction of a new bridge linking Malé to Hulhumalé, relocation of both shore-ends in the capital and most populous city of Malé is mandatory as the planned area of the bridge works extends over the existing submarine cable locations.
