Submarine cables are laid using special cable layer ships, such as the modern René Descartes, operated by France Telecom Marine.cable layer René DescartesFrance Telecom  Indian telecom giant Tata, one of the world's largest subsea cable providers, manages 130,500 miles of fiber sitting at the bottom of the ocean floor. That's enough to circle the planet five times. It takes a ship six weeks just to load the cable for a cross- ocean voyage.

 It's a matter of speed, and laying in enough safeguards to ensure that the Internet won't suddenly go down.  It sounds crazy, but Earth's continents are physically linked to one another through a vast network of subsea, fiber-optic cables that circumnavigate the globe. Cords no thicker than your home's broadband connection stretch along the bottom of the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans; through the Suez canal; across the Mediterranean Sea and around the coasts of Africa and South America.
