Telxius, created in 2016, is the new global telecommunications infrastructure company of the TelefÑnica Group, whose aim is to capture the exponential increase of data traffic expected in the coming years. With nearly 16,000 telecommunications towers in five countries, Telxius has one of the largest tower catalogues in the market among independent infrastructure companies, making it the market leader in Spain and Germany and one of the main industry suppliers in the sector in Brazil, Chile and Peru. With an international high-capacity cable network, Telxius manages a 65,000 km network of submarine fiber optic cables connecting Europe and America, 31,000 km of which are owned by Telxius. It includes, among other infrastructures, SAM-1, the submarine cable system which has connected the United States with Central America and South America since the year 2000, PCCS (Pacific Caribbean Cable System), which connects the US, Puerto Rico, Curazao, Colombia, Panama and Ecuador, and Unisur, which connects Uruguay and Argentina. It is expected that BRUSA, the new offshore cable measuring nearly 11,000 km and connecting Brazil, Puerto Rico and the US, will be operational in 2018, as well as MAREA, a cable which will link the United States and Europe, in partnership with Google and Facebook. At Telxius we are growing with the spirit of a startup and the fundamentals of an experience and leading telco operator.
