European traffic to Brazil no longer has to detour through North America. The EllaLink system, in service since 2021, connects Lisbon, Madrid and Marseille directly to Fortaleza and São Paulo, with under 60 ms round-trip across the Atlantic between Portugal and Brazil. Before it existed, European traffic reached Brazil by way of the United States, adding distance and a jurisdiction nobody asked for.
For a company in Iberia this is the shortest path in both senses: the cable is direct, and the commercial relationship stays in the same language and the same business culture. We contract the Brazilian side, so delivery does not wait for a Brazilian entity.
Portugal and Spain are where the cable lands and also where the business conversation is easiest. Contracts, technical discussion and escalation happen in Portuguese or Spanish, with a Brazilian operator on the other end who works in the same language — which removes the layer of translation that usually sits between a European buyer and a Brazilian carrier.
That matters more than it sounds. Most of what goes wrong in a cross-border delivery is not technical: it is a requirement understood differently on each side, discovered late.
We are a neutral multicarrier operator in Brazil. We are not selling you the subsea system; we map what exists at your Brazilian addresses, contract it on your behalf while your local entity is still being set up, and remain the counterpart for support and escalation afterwards.
Send the addresses, or the two endpoints and the capacity. Price, lead time and SLA come back normally within two business hours, in Portuguese, Spanish or English.
Yes. The EllaLink system has been in service since 2021 and connects Lisbon, Madrid and Marseille to Fortaleza and São Paulo, with under 60 ms round-trip across the Atlantic between Portugal and Brazil.
Two reasons. Latency, because the direct Atlantic crossing is shorter than routing through North America; and diversity, because a route that lands in Iberia shares no cable, no landing station and no failure domain with one that lands in Florida.
Yes. The obstacle is not the cable, it is that Brazilian carriers require a local entity to contract. We contract on your behalf so ordering and delivery start before your Brazilian entity exists, and the agreement can transfer to it later.
Portuguese, Spanish or English, with the same operator on both ends. That removes the translation layer that normally sits between a European buyer and a Brazilian carrier, which is where cross-border deliveries usually go wrong.
Normally two business hours, from the Brazilian addresses or from the two endpoints and the capacity.
