OMS Group, a leading telecommunications infrastructure provider, has announced a significant investment of $300 million to expand its submarine cable systems and terrestrial infrastructure. This strategic move aims to enhance connectivity between key regions and support the growing demand for digital services.
The investment will enable OMS to further develop its network, providing businesses and organizations with essential connectivity infrastructure. The company aims to advance critical infrastructure and help them transition capital expenditures into sustainable operating expenses by partnering with telecommunications providers.
The investment includes acquiring direct ownership of submarine cable systems and developing backhaul infrastructure from cable landing stations (CLS) to data centers, strengthening its position as a key player in the telecommunications industry.
Among the group’s investments is Project MIST, an intra-Asia subsea cable system connecting Malaysia, India, Singapore, and Thailand via landing sites in Chennai and Mumbai. The system spans 8,100 km and has a capacity of 216 TB. Furthermore, LitUp Network, an OMS Group company, has created four CLSs and network support facilities around Southeast Asia, including Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia.
OMS Group CEO Ronnie Lim emphasized the company’s commitment to meeting the evolving needs of the global digital landscape. The rapid growth of data centers, cloud services, and the increasing demand for bandwidth have created a pressing need for enhanced infrastructure.
