INTERNATIONAL BUREAU REPORT 2009 Section 43.82 Circuit Status Data December 2010 Cathy Hsu Policy Division 1 2009 Section 43.82 Circuit Status Data This report contains information on U.S.-international facilities-based common carriers’ circuits as of year-end 2009 that was submitted to the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) by U.S. common carriers pursuant to section 43.82 of the Commission’s rules. 1 In addition to the 2009 data, for comparison purposes, this report includes data from previous reports covering 2006 through 2008. 2 Reporting Requirements Section 43.82 of the Commission’s rules requires U.S.-international facilities-based common carriers to file an international circuit status report by March 31 each year for circuits used to provide international services as of December 31 of the preceding year. 3 (Non-common carriers are not required by section 43.82 to report their circuits.) 4 The detailed filing requirements are set forth in the Manual for Filing Section 43.82 Circuit Status Data, which is available on the Commission’s Web site at http://www.fcc.gov/ib/pd/pf/csmanual.html. This report summarizes the Commission staff review and analysis of the information provided to the Commission by carriers pursuant to Section 43.82. 5 Some carriers request confidential treatment of information submitted. The information in this report is presented in aggregated form for public use. All U.S.-international facilities-based common carriers are required to file circuit status information showing both activated (in-service) and idle (available but not in-service) capacity. Although carriers measure units of circuit capacity at E-1 6 and STM-1 7 levels, all services are reported in 64 Kbps-equivalent circuits, the minimum measurable unit, to accommodate carriers that have low traffic volumes and, therefore, cannot report by large capacity units with respect to 1 47 C.F.R. § 43.82. 2 Information for 1995–2005 is available in our previous reports, at http://www.fcc.gov/ib/pd/pf/csmanual.html. 3 The Filing Manual defines international facilities-based circuits as “international circuits in which a carrier has an ownership interest that includes outright ownership, indefeasible right of use (IRU) interests, or leasehold interest in capacity in an international facility, regardless of whether the underlying facility is a common or non-common carrier submarine cable or …satellite system.” Manual for Filing Section 43.82 Circuit Status Data in Accordance with the FCC’s Rules and Regulations at 5. The filing manual is accessible on the FCC’s website at www.fcc.gov/ib/pd/pf/csmanual.html. 4 Commission staff believe that a substantial amount of capacity is provided on a non-common carrier basis. Consequently, it is noted that the capacity reported here should not be interpreted as representing the total capacity used to provide international services. 5 The staff reviews the carriers’ submissions for accuracy and completion. Some carriers filed revised data based on requests for clarification from the staff. Others filed revisions on their own. 6 1 E-1 = 30 64 Kbps circuits. 7 1 STM-1 = 1,890 64 Kbps circuits. 2 any particular country. Carriers also measure bandwidth of international transmission capacity at substantially higher levels (i.e., gigabits per second (Gbps) and terabits per second (Tbps)). In Table 7 (a supplemental table which shows capacity data for trans-oceanic cables that are not filed by cable operators for purposes of section 43.82, but are included in this report for reference purposes) we have stated the cable capacity in 2007-2012 in Gbps as well as 64 Kbps circuit units to reflect industry convention. We have used the following standard conversion ratio: 1 Gbps = 12,096 64 Kbps circuits. Data Presentation The services covered by this report include International Message Telephone Service (IMTS) (switched voice), International Private Line Service (IPLS) (including voice and data), and Miscellaneous or Other International Services (including data services other than private line service) provided on a common carrier basis. The aggregated data listed in this report reflect all of the submitted information, including information from carriers requesting confidential treatment. This report uses the following regional codes outlined in the International Points Report: 8 Region Code Western Europe 1 Africa 2 Middle East 3 Caribbean 4 North and Central America 5 South America 6 Asia 7 Oceania 8 Eastern Europe 9 International Water Area 10 8 See Wireline Competition Bureau Industry Analysis and Technology Division report titled International Points Used for FCC Reporting Purposes (International Points Report), available at http://www.fcc.gov/wcb/iatd/intl.html. 3 This report is organized as follows: • Table 1 lists the 75 carriers that filed circuit status reports. Of these, 71 carriers reported active or idle capacity in 2009. The remaining 4 carriers did not report any active or idle capacity in 2009. • Tables 2 through 5 present data from 2006 through 2009 for different categories of transmission facilities: 9 Table 2 (data on undersea cable circuits); Table 3 (data on satellite circuits); Table 4 (data on terrestrial circuits); 10 and Table 5 (data on combined transmission circuits); as well as the percentage of circuits by service type (IMTS, Private Lines, and Other International Services) for each region, from 2006 to 2009. These tables include information organized by service type for 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009 data. ¾ Table 2 shows that undersea cable circuits accounted for 81.4 percent of the overall active transmission capacity in 2009. ¾ Table 3 shows that international satellite circuits accounted for 0.1 percent of overall active transmission capacity. 11 ¾ Table 4 shows that terrestrial links accounted for 18.5 percent of active circuit capacity in 2009. ¾ Table 5 shows that, for 2009, IMTS circuits accounted for 6.5 percent of the total active capacity. The combined growth rate for Private Line and “Other” (data) services was 50.8 percent in 2009. ¾ Table 6 shows the top 30 destinations by circuits. The top 30 destinations accounted for 97 percent of the total U.S.-activated circuits at year-end 2009, with the United Kingdom, Japan, Denmark, Canada, and Germany as the top five destinations. 9 The data for 2008 in Table 2, Table 5, and Table 7-A have been revised from data reported in the 2008 circuit status report due to the filing of amended information by Level 3. 10 Terrestrial circuits include circuits carried both by microwave facilities and by terrestrial cables. Terrestrial circuits do not include circuits carried by undersea cables. 11 The satellite data understate the actual amount of satellite capacity in use because non-common carrier (private) satellite operators market their capacity directly to end-users on a non-common carrier basis and, thus, are not subject to reporting requirements under section 43.82. 4 Supplementary Data Table 7-A lists operational and planned new trans-oceanic cables licensed by the Commission and used to provide international services to and from the United States. 12 The table provides cable capacity information in 64 Kbps units from 2000 to 2012 (and in Gbps from 2007 to 2012), as derived from cable landing license applications and updated capacity information from cable operators. Table 7-B provides additional information about FCC licensing of the cables. In 2009, U.S. carriers reported a 56% increase from 2008 in active and idle circuits for the trans- Atlantic region (regions 1, 2, 3, and 9). The reported trans-Atlantic region circuits for 2009 accounted for 12.2 percent of the total available cable capacity. In the Americas region (regions 4, 5, and 6), the reported active and idle cable capacity accounted for 7.1 percent of the total available cable capacity. In the trans-Pacific region (regions 7 and 8), the reported active and idle cable capacity accounted for 4.7 percent of the total available cable capacity. The reported activated circuits as a percentage of total available circuits for the three regions (i.e., trans- Atlantic, Americas, and trans-Pacific regions) are also included in Table 7. Overall, the total active circuits reported by U.S. common carriers accounted for 4.7 percent of total available capacity from the U.S. to all three Ocean regions. Data for 2009 show a pattern that is similar to previous years: the overall reported active and idle cable capacity accounted for 10.0 percent of the total available cable capacity. Cable capacity reported pursuant to Section 43.82 (activated and idle circuits) understates the actual amount of capacity that is in use. In our previous reports, we identified three reasons for the discrepancy between reported capacity (activated plus idle circuits) and available capacity. They continue to apply. First, foreign carriers hold significant amounts of U.S.-international cable capacity and are not required to report their capacity under section 43.82 unless they use their capacity for the provision of U.S. international service. Second, for any new cable system, a substantial amount of capacity that is actually activated or idle may be underreported, particularly in the year in which many new cables come on-line or old cables are upgraded. In 2009, three new cables in the trans-Pacific region came on-line; Asia America Gateway Consortium (AAG), PPC 1, and American Samoa Hawaii Cable. Third, much of the capacity on non-common carrier cables is sold to end-users, including Internet Service Providers (ISPs), foreign carriers and foreign ISPs. In those situations, neither the cable owner nor cable user is required to report the capacity. 13 12 Table 7-A does not list and provide capacity information about undersea cables licensed by the Commission connecting points within the United States, between the continental U.S. and Alaska, and interisland cables in Hawaii, The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and U.S. Virgin Islands. 13 As we discussed above, the section 43.82 reporting requirements only apply to common carriers, and not to non- common carriers. 47 C.F.R. § 43.82(a).

To avoid double counting, a carrier is required to report its initial facility used for each international point traffic; therefore, this table reports as "terrestrial" some circuits between the United States and countries that are not actually reached by terrestrial links (through microwave or terrestrial cables) from the United States.
