A total of 70km of cables must be laid at Horns Rev 2. Between each row of turbines cables will be connected from west to east. The cables contain fibre network which transmits communication and control to and from the various wind turbines. All cables are buried in the seabed.

East of the wind farm the 13 rows are connected in the transformer platform. From the transformer platform the produced electricity is transported ashore via a submarine cable.
