The EU Transport NOC reported that preparations for fiber repairs are ongoing at this time on the Segment B cable failure. The EU Transport NOC also advised that the cause for the fiber cuts cannot be determined at this time. Additionally, as repairs will commence on the Segment B cable failure first, the estimated repair time for the Segment B cable is Sunday, April 21st, and upon completion the cable ship will travel to the Segment A fault location to begin repairs thereafter. The estimated repair time for Segment A is Wednesday April 24, 2013, and the EU Transport NOC informed that both estimated repair times are contingent on weather conditions. As such, further updates will be provided as new information becomes available.</td>

Upon completion of Segment B, the cable ship will then transit to the Segment A fiber failure and commence repairs thereafter. The EU Transport NOC report that repairs for the Segment A cable are expected to be completed four days following Segment B repairs weather permitting.

EU Transport NOC advised a suspected subsea fiber cable failure on Segment A between Whitesands, U.K . and Kilmore Quay, Ireland, isolating all network elements on Ireland. Due to a previous fiber failure on Segment B on the subsea fiber cable last week, the Segment A fiber failure has affected both protected and unprotected services as well as all telemetry to network devices. Currently, a cable repair ship is on station for the Segment B fiber failure, however, adverse weather and sea conditions have delay immediate repair to the damaged cable. Preparations are underway for a cable ship dispatch on the Segment A fiber failure.</td>

The geographical endpoints of the cables I was given:<br>

Whitesands**, UK <--> Kilmore Quay, Ireland<br>

I see nothing on NANOG that seems relevant, and would expect 2 cable<br>

Curious if anyone has knowledge or information or visibility into this.<br>

Thanks!<br>

are 3 possible places this could match:<br>

Whitesand Bay (in west Cornwall)<br>
Whitsand Bay (in southeast Cornwall)<br>
Whitesands Bay, (in Pembrokeshire, Wales)<br>
