| Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
| Unfulfilled Performance Obligations | Unfulfilled Performance Obligations We enter into certain long-term (i) capacity contracts with customers where the customer either pays a fixed fee over time or prepays for the capacity upfront and pays a portion related to operating and maintenance of the network over time and (ii) contracts with customers related to the construction of subsea cable systems where we recognize revenue over time, generally using an output method. With respect to long-term prepaid contracts, we assess whether such contracts contain a significant financing component. If the financing component is significant, interest expense is accreted over the life of the contract using the effective interest method. The revenue associated with prepaid contracts is deferred and generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract. As of June 30, 2026, we have approximately $300 million of unfulfilled performance obligations relating to our long-term contracts that generally will be recognized as revenue over an average remaining life of four years.
