And this single cable, Atlantis-2, has very little capacity so its usage is
mostly voice traffic.
There is a new cable in construction called EllaLink (https://ella.link/)
that when installed will add plenty of capacity to this route, but most
Brazil - Germany traffic goes thru the US nowadays.

Alternative routes before EllaLink comes into operation would be one of the
Brazil-Africa cables (one to Cameroon, the other to Angola) and then to
Europe.
