Combined with a new terrestrial segment from Quer\u00e9taro to Veracruz, and fully integrated with C3ntro's TIKVA network extending from Quer\u00e9taro to Phoenix, CSN-2 will form a continuous, high-capacity corridor spanning key infrastructure routes across the region.<\/p><p>\nThis new infrastructure platform is designed to support the explosive growth of <b>AI, cloud, and hyperscale deployments<\/b> by directly connecting key data center ecosystems across the Americas, including <b>Phoenix, Texas, Georgia, Virginia, Florida and Quer\u00e9taro<\/b>. Together, C3ntro and Telconet are demonstrating a shared commitment to deliver scalable, resilient, and geographically diverse connectivity between the United States and Mexico.<\/p><p>\nThe project builds on the <i>successful execution<\/i> of two major infrastructure projects: <b>Telconet's CSN-1 submarine system<\/b> and <b>C3ntro's Tikva terrestrial network<\/b>, both on track for completion by Q4 of 2026. Building on that momentum, CSN-2 represents the next phase of innovation for both companies, combining proven subsea and terrestrial expertise into a unified infrastructure initiative focused on diversity, resiliency, scalability, and strategic interconnection.<\/p><p>\nBy combining Telconet's leadership in subsea systems with C3ntro's expertise in fiber infrastructure for hyperscalers and data center interconnection across Mexico and the United States, the partnership delivers a differentiated model: <i>a fully integrated subsea-terrestrial architecture designed as a unified system rather than standalone deployments.<\/i><\/p><p>\nCSN-2 is purpose-built for AI and hyperscale growth, delivering lower latency, greater route diversity, and direct interconnection between major digital hubs while introducing a new alternative across the Gulf region.<\/p><p>\n<b>Tomislav Topic, CEO of Telconet:<\/b><\/p><p>\n\"CSN-2 reflects our long-term vision of building scalable, high-capacity infrastructure across the Americas. Following the momentum of CSN-1, partnering with C3ntro allows us to combine subsea and terrestrial networks into a single platform connecting one of the fastest-growing digital infrastructure ecosystems in the world.\"<\/p><p>\n<b>Sim\u00f3n Masri, President of C3ntro Telecom:<\/b><\/p><p>\n\"The success of Tikva demonstrated the growing demand for new infrastructure routes aligned with AI and hyperscale growth. By combining CSN-2 with Tikva and leveraging Telconet's proven subsea track record, we are creating a network that directly connects the newest AI data center markets in North America with the diversity, resiliency, and scalability required for the next generation of digital infrastructure.\"<\/p><p>\n<b>About C3ntro Telecom<\/b><\/p><p>\nC3ntro Telecom is a Mexico-headquartered Digital infrastructure, integrated telecommunications and IT international carrier.
