Charter Seeks FCC Exemptions Related to New Submarine Cable Rule
Broadband ISP supports cybersecurity goals and one-time certification
WASHINGTON, April 21, 2026 — Charter Communications, parent company of Spectrum, is urging the Federal Communications Commission to exempt it from proposed agency disclosure and licensing requirements.
Charter made this request in comments filed with the agency on April 13 in response to a draft order proposing new requirements for producers of submarine cables.
The FCC's draft order, released on April 9, would revoke blanket authority for companies on the FCC’s Covered List to operate domestic transmission lines.
