New Ocean Cable To Have Capacity Twenty Times More
Milwaukee editor Stanley R. Edwards told the Wisconsin State Telephone association that a new ocean cable will carry about twenty times the capacity of existing lines. He noted the 1844 cable carried one message each way at a time, 110 letters per minute, while the permalloy cable from Newfoundland in 1926 carried 2 500 words a minute. The proposed telephone cable would handle one conversation at a time but allow vast telegraphic throughput.
