RFS was Nov 2001. They full paid the debt from a US$1.3B cost of construction in Oct 2005. (see http://www.southerncrosscables.com/public/News/newsdetail.cfm?StoryID=14) So, they're making some VERY decent money out of the duopoly with AJC. Hence why Telstra's building their OWN cable to Hawaii. It's cheaper to build than buy!
