Reliance Communications’ undersea cable unit Reliance Globalcom has launched a joint venture with Iraqi Telecommunications and Post Company (ITPC), which will increase country's broadband and telecommunications links to the outside world. This project will connect Iraq to countries in the Middle East, Asia, Europe and North America via activation of Al-Faw Cable Landing Station.

This new station with a design capacity of 680 Gbps with two diverse routes will initially use 50 Gbps on each route to cater to existing market demand. The two diverse routes were connected to the Falcon undersea fiber-optic cable network owned by Reliance Globalcom.

Reliance Globalcom owns the world's largest private undersea cable system spanning 65,000 kilometers. Reliance Communications, India's second-largest mobile firm by users, acquired the FLAG undersea cable network for $207 million in 2003, and the business is now part of its Reliance Globalcom unit. It sells capacity on the network to many of the world's major carriers.
