Show Hint
- Vodafone
AT&T
- Airtel
Reliance Jio Infocomm
The Correct Option is D
Approach Solution - 1
Reliance Jio Infocomm launched the Asia-Africa-Europe (AAE-1) submarine cable system, which stretches over 25,000 Km from Marseille, France to Hong Kong with 21 cable landing points across Asia and Europe. This is the longest submarine cable system with 100GBps technology, designed to cater to the growing demand for high-speed data transmission between continents. Why option (D) fits: Reliance Jio Infocomm is the Indian telecom operator behind this significant infrastructure project, aimed at enhancing global connectivity.
Approach Solution -2
This can be worked out by recalling which Indian telecom operator was behind the AAE-1 cable project described in the question.
- Option A (Vodafone): Vodafone operates extensively in the Indian telecom market, but it was not the operator credited with launching the AAE-1 cable for India, so this option is incorrect.
- Option B (AT&T): AT&T is a major international telecom player and a member of the wider AAE-1 consortium, but it was not the company credited with bringing this cable's connectivity to India.
- Option C (Airtel): Airtel is one of India's largest telecom operators, yet it was not the company that launched this particular cable for the country.
- Option D (Reliance Jio Infocomm): Reliance Jio Infocomm brought the AAE-1 submarine cable's connectivity into India, linking Marseille in France to Hong Kong across roughly 25,000 kilometres with numerous landing points, supporting the country's growing high-speed data needs.
Since Reliance Jio Infocomm is the operator credited with this launch in India, option (D) is confirmed.
Hence, the correct answer is Reliance Jio Infocomm.
