When I lived in the Cayman Islands, the primary submarine cable (I forget its name) was fiber, and I had better net there than I had in the US. It went down for a week or two one time, and the entire island's net traffic was relegated to a much older copper cable that ran to Jamaica. Cayman is a tiny market, but it still crippled our net because the bandwidth was tiny; it was like a couple T1s for the whole population.
