ITU standards are fundamental to global connectivity. An estimated 95% of international data traffic, traversing 1.4 million kilometers of submarine cables, adheres to these standards. This framework has also enabled optical network capacity to grow by an average of 40% annually over the last four decades, at viable costs.
