Upgrade ?
http://www.teleanalysis.com/services/huawei-marine-upgrades-11450-km-of-wacs-submarine-cable-system-16935.html says :-

The upgrade solutions over 11,450 km utilize Huawei Marine’s innovative 3rd generation Soft Decision-Forward Error Correction (SD-FEC) and bit interleaved technologies which guarantee the compatibility of 100 Gbps channels with 10 Gbps channels on the existing network, thereby optimizing the available optical spectrum.

Is that bytes?
