Telecommunications in Samoa

Telecommunications systems in Samoa include telephone, radio, television and internet.
In 2009, the Samoa-American Samoa Cable provided inter-island communication, as well as enabling users in Samoa to access the ASH cable capacity and connect to the global networks. While ASH Cable and SAS Cable are much smaller than the huge systems across the North Pacific, they will provide more than 40 times the capacity currently in use in both island groups combined.
