DXN awarded contract to construct the Dili landing station for the Timor-Leste South Submarine Cable System

Type: Supply Agreement · Technology: Telecom · Country: Timor-Leste · Announced: 2026-08-11

Cabos de Timor-Leste engaged Australian firm DXN to build the Dili landing station for the Timor-Leste South Submarine Cable System. The landing station will serve as the onshore termination point for the 607‑km subsea cable connecting Dili with Australia. Construction of the facility is part of the broader rollout that enables commercial operations of the cable, which began in late July 2026. The project strengthens Timor-Leste's telecommunications infrastructure and supports the transition away from satellite‑based services. The contract underscores the collaboration between local and Australian firms to deliver critical digital connectivity in the region.
